Initial comments

 * "When the First World War began in August of that year" - link First World War
 * The lead summarises the article perfectly, but I would recommend splitting it into two paragraphs
 * "On 1 September, a submarine was spotted inside Scapa Flow and the 2nd DF was detailed to hunt down the imaginary submarine" - imaginary? Does this mean to say that the submarine wasn't really there?
 * Yep, German records confirm that no u-boat was present. This early in the war, both sides tended to see submarines everywhere.
 * "As scout cruisers, the ships were only lightly protected to maximize their speed" - maximise
 * "She only fired eight 4-inch rounds during the entire battle" - convert to metric
 * Already done on first use.
 * No dead links
 * "by Lady Herbert, wife of Major-general Ivor Herbert, MP" - MP is a dab link

A short review, but very little issues to bring up. Once all are done this can pass. JAG UAR   20:21, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
