I'll get to this shortly.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:31, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
 * No DABs, external links OK
 * Drop the terminal zero for the length in the infobox and main body
 * Fixed
 * Be consistent about using the times sign in the propulsion field in the infobox
 * Good catch
 * Any publication history for File:Battleship USS KEARSARGE 1908 (TRANSPORT 1199).jpg?
 * Can't find anything - replaced
 * File:USS Kearsarge Brassey's.png is this one of Barnaby's drawings? Needs a British tag as well, I believe
 * Fixed
 * The sourcing on File:BB05 Kearsarge BB06 Kentucky USN photo www.navsource.org.jpg needs to be improved. See if you can find it on the Library of Congress website.
 * I can't track it down, I'll just cut it for now
 * Couldn't access File:USS Kearsarge as crane ship AB-1.jpg to see what the sourcing was. But it also needs to be improved.
 * Replaced
 * Much better photo, though I'd update the copyright info to the standard NHHC format before the ACR.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:27, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Use the sourcing data for File:Uss kentucky bb-6.jpg from the NHHC
 * Fixed
 * what were to become the Kearsarge class what were? Howzabout "that became" or somesuch?
 * Works for me
 * Watch your conversion for 12 inch
 * Fixed
 * No need to convert 13 inches in the 2nd para of the Design section and 8 inches in the following para
 * Removed
 * had made improvements to their gun turret designs, significant weight savings were achieved convoluted
 * I think that got rewritten a few times too many
 * 12-inch guns could be penetrate even missing word
 * Fixed
 * Link long ton in the main body, also elevation
 * Done
 * 16.816 knots Three trailing digits seems a bit excessive; suggest just one.
 * Fair enough
 * Use this as a model for 2-inch-thick: 24 ft and remove the conversion for 2 inches in the following para.
 * Thanks
 * Is there a link for Mosher boiler? Never heard of them before
 * Not that I was able to find
 * More later.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 20:53, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks Sturm. Parsecboy (talk) 14:12, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I'd missed File:USSkearsarge-bb5-underway.jpg earlier, but the sourcing needs to be improved. All of the other photos are up to snuff although there's a bit of a ping-pong effect going on
 * Cleaned up
 * 2-inch-thick for the 13-inch No need to hyphenate 2 inches thick
 * Fixed
 * Provide a conversion for 6 mm
 * Done
 * Link the nautical terms in the header of the table unless previously used and then removed the links from the following text.
 * Done
 * When did the turret accident occur?
 * Whoops!
 * I'd add something like Kentucky joining her sister in the 4th division.
 * Tweaked
 * Anything more substantial available on what Kentucky did in Veracruz
 * Not much from DANFS, at least
 * Link New England and West Coast.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:27, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Done. Parsecboy (talk) 17:25, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
