Hi! I'll be reviewing this article for GA status and should have my full review up shortly. Dana boomer (talk) 20:40, 12 September 2013 (UTC)


 * GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * Design - Do we have an article for the 1907 Warship Supplement Program? If not, is it a viable redlink?
 * No article and I think that an article is really only possible if you read Japanese.
 * Construction, "the battleship Mikasa had a fire was started by a sailor" - fire that was, I think.
 * Construction, "Kawachi at Yokosuka." - Kawachi was at, I think.
 * Construction, Battle of Tsingtao should be linked on the first occurrence, not the second.
 * Linked in the lede
 * Construction, do we have links for the First Squadron and Second Squadron?
 * No, and I'm not even sure that I can put together what ships were in them when.
 * Construction, "would delay the construction of one battlecruiser by over a year." Why would the salvage of one ship delay the construction of another?
 * Limited resources like money, drydock space and skilled labor are my guesses. The firmest of these is drydock space, I think, but even that's not noted in any of my sources.
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * 1) It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * File:Kawachi.jpg needs a source. There appear to be a bunch of pictures on navweaps - perhaps one of them is the same as this?
 * Added.
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * A few prose niggles and one image question. Otherwise a nice little article. Dana boomer (talk) 21:31, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Responded to everything, I think. Thanks for the review.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 22:50, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
 * OK, everything looks good. Passing to GA. Dana boomer (talk) 20:05, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
