I'll get to this shortly.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 22:44, 13 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

  • No DABs or external links.
  • Images appropriately licensed
  • A cite is needed for the fact that she's the only ship of her name to serve in the RN. And also for her namesake. That might also be better moved down to the construction section, but that's your choice
    • Manning & Walker covers that
  • Fix the conversion for 8-inch guns.
    • Done
  • Eventually, the name Zealandia, a personification of New Zealand, was agreed upon, and New Zealand was renamed Zealandia Change the second New Zealand to "the ship"
    • Good idea
  • Link gun port
    • Done
  • Nice and simple.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 18:22, 2 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
    • It helps to go through and copy the changes you point out in one review before you get to the others - now if only I'd stop making silly mistakes the first time around ;) Parsecboy (talk) 12:53, 4 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
      • Believe me, I know exactly what you mean. I've boosted my edit count by a couple of hundred just fixing stupid mistakes that I propagated across 50-odd Soviet DD articles. Missing hyphens, plurals and draught, etc. All stuff I should have caught on my final edit of the base article. Sigh.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 14:05, 4 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
        • Go look at my edits from the last couple days of January - lots of fixing MT to LT, and in fixing those, I realized I hadn't linked displacement in quite a lot of articles, so there were a lot of these. Sooner or later, we'll end up getting things right the first time around, eh? Parsecboy (talk) 14:27, 4 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
          • Good thinking to add the link for displacement. You're young enough that you might actually be able to catch those sorts of things before you nominate them, but me, I think that I'm in a race with premature senility. ;-) Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 14:42, 4 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
            • I've got the kids hassling me most of the time - we might both be screwed! Parsecboy (talk) 15:16, 4 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
