I will do this one. Comments to follow.

Infobox

• There is a surplus bracket on the main armament.

Design and description

• Ever so slight discrepancy in PS between description and infobox.
  • PS is the abbreviation for metric horsepower
• There is also a switch between terminology here: nominal horsepower and PS - not sure if that is deliberate?
  • Two different things. Nominal was based on the bore and stroke of the engine, but PS was an actual measurement of power.
• Ever so slight discrepancy in thickness of the conning tower sides between description and infobox.

Construction and service

• Discrepancy in launch date between description and infobox
• Is there a link for Northern Squadron? Would also apply to its mention in lead
  • No link yet.
• ...many of the trained gunners aboard the squadron... suggest: "...many of the trained gunners aboard the squadron's ships..."
• link Mediterranean Squadron
  • Linked in the lede

Other stuff

• Image tags check out OK. A suggestion though; swap the images. I think it is better to have the image of the actual ship in the infobox rather than her sister. But that may be a personal preference and it won't affect this review if you choose not to.
• No dupe links
• The dablinks/external links tools don't want to work for me but on a manual check, the external links in the references check out OK

That's all I found on my first run through. Cheers, Zawed (talk) 04:52, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for the review.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 00:17, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

I see one suggestion not effected, but that is pretty minor and not enough to hold this up. Passing as GA as I believe it meets the GA criteria. Cheers, Zawed (talk) 08:59, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
