Comments
This article provides a good level of detail on a ship with an unremarkable history. I have the following comments: I think that my comments are now addressed. Nick-D (talk) 00:16, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
 * "Cambrian, the last ship of her sub-class to be completed" - do we know why was the class named after her if she was the last to be finished? Was she the first to be ordered?
 * Possibly, but I don't have an order date for any of these ships. I do know that she wasn't the first to be laid down or launched, for whatever that's worth.
 * What was the role of this ship? Was she a short(ish)-ranged scout, a trade protection vessel, etc?
 * "The ship did not participate in the inconclusive Action of 19 August 1916" - a bit more context would help here (eg, did the rest of her squadron take part? Do we know why she didn't?)
 * I suspect that she was still working up, but none of my sources say as much.
 * "She was recommissioned as the flagship of the Nore Reserve" - do we know what this involved? (eg, was she used as an accommodation ship for administrative/maintenance personnel, or was this a more active role)
 * I'm not sure, although I'm sure that she was used as an accommodation ship for the admiral and his staff. I don't know what level of reserve the Nore Reserve meant at this time. At various times the ships were manned for several weeks by reservists and taken to sea, but I don't know if that was the situation in the '30s. Thanks for looking this over.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 02:55, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
