 * 1) Is it reasonably well written?
 * A. Prose quality:
 * I looked it over again, and nothing showed up in Firefox. Parsecboy (talk) 14:41, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I caught two typos on my first reading, but I'm not noticing any now.
 * B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:
 * 1) Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
 * A. References to sources:
 * B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:
 * C. No original research:
 * 1) Is it broad in its coverage?
 * A. Major aspects:
 * It doesn't appear to be the case (at least since they don't have articles), though this was the solution that made MisterBee happy. The problem with working it into the text is uncertainty over specific dates. For instance, did Rudolf Peters (who took command in "February '42") command the ship during Cerberus or did he take command after the ship reached Germany? I'd wager the latter, but the source doesn't give specifics. It's also not clear what was going on during the overlap in Otto Fein's and Peters' tenures as commander.
 * I added a bit from the article, but I've got a question. In your Glorious article, you have two different citations, one to page 61 and the other to 51. I figured it was a typo, but the online article doesn't give a page number. I guessed that you meant 61, as there are two citations to that page - is that right?

 * I deleted the page # from your cite from Howland. I used the paper copy and should probably delete the page #s as well since I gave a web link. I'd delete whatever you cannot cleanly add to the text and we can fight about it with MisterBee at the ACR. If they weren't notable then I don't think he's got much of a leg to stand on. Overlapping commands usually means somebody was sick or on leave, but I'd not put that into the article without confirmation. Almost forgot, where are the armor stats? And be sure to cite them in the infobox or add a descriptive para with cites.
 * Alright, I've split the first three COs into the text and dropped the last two, as it's difficult to place them with only the month they took over. Armor added as well, nice catch. Parsecboy (talk) 23:34, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Be sure to add the armor cites to Scharnhorst as well if you haven't done so already.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 00:08, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
 * B. Focused:
 * 22kn converted, Seetakt is linked in the Weserubung section. As for the corvette, Garzke & Dulin, don't give a name. AP is armor-piercing, already explained on the first instance. Good call on the GRT - Garzke & Dulin don't say, but I'm certain its GRT. Parsecboy (talk) 14:41, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Added a bit from Rohwer about the 8 June engagement.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 23:13, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for finding that. Parsecboy (talk) 23:34, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
