This article is in good shape. I have a few comments:

  • suggest linking "Arsenal de Brest" for the builder in the infobox rather than the city article
    • Done
  • the infobox says "Sunk as target ship in 1913" but her fate is unknown
    • Fixed - I apparently forgot to go over that part of the box
  • you could link French Navy at first mention in the body
    • Good idea
  • suggest after construction began after it became apparent→after construction began when it became apparent, to avoid two "after"s close together
    • Done
  • you could link t in the displacement conversion in the body
    • Fixed
  • the infobox says two engines, the body says four
    • Fixed
  • the infobox says 8 boilers, the body says 12
    • Fixed
  • suggest adding the calibre of the 138 mm guns in the body
    • Done
  • 9–18 × 1 - 47/40 guns?
    • Fixed
  • suggest putting the 37 mm guns in the infobox
    • Done
  • Gardiner says 3–5 450 mm TTs and 3–5 380 mm TTs? Also, perhaps given you are discussing light guns, leave the TTs out of the sentence beginning "Gardiner reports a range..."
    • Fixed
  • 64 mm (2.5 in) thick gun shields
    • Done
  • infobox says laid down 17 April 1882, but body says February
    • Fixed
  • no first name for Godin? Could it be Gabriel, per French WP?
    • Yeah, that'd be him
  • "though the work was immediately started" though? Should it be "though the work was not immediately started"?
    • Good catch
  • File:Neptune on Penfeld-Edmond Chagot mg 8229b.jpeg needs licensing for the actual painting, per the 2D reproduction rules
    • Updated
  • no commissioning date is given in the body, but it says 1892 in the infobox
    • Fixed
  • the infobox says in service 23 December 1892, but this isn't in the body
    • Removed
  • the infobox says out of service 4 February 1908, but this is not in the body
    • As above
  • no mention of the masts being cut down and boilers changed? Per class article?
    • Added

That's me done. Placing on hold for the above to be addressed. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 00:40, 4 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

No worries. This article is well-written, verifiable using reliable sources, covers the subject well, is neutral and stable, contains no plagiarism, and is illustrated by acceptably licensed images with appropriate captions. Passing. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 04:16, 7 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
