ping - wonder if you forgot about this. Parsecboy (talk) 16:49, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

Nah, today's just the day for Wiki stuff.

• Images appropriately licensed, no DABs and external links.
• Link class in the lede; anti-torpedo bulges, rudder.
  • All done.
• What do you mean by bow bulge? A bulbous bow? If so then link it, if a link exists.
  • Sometimes I write things and have no idea how I got there later...
    • I know the feeling.
• Typo: 20&bnsp;enlisted men
  • Fixed.
• Fix the infobox re # of diesel engines
  • Done.
• This can't be right Nürnberg had four plants which comprised two 300 kW turbo-generators and two 350 kW diesel generators, for a total output of 1,300 kW, also at 220 volts. Also plants reads oddly, perhaps installations?
  • What can't be right about it? That's what Whitley says. As for plants -> installations, done.
    • On first read, I saw four installations, each with four generators... Perhaps something like "four generators (linked), two turbo and two diesel" with ratings, of course.
• Fix this: The rudder was augmented with special steering system on the engine transmissions; ther had
  • Fixed.
• Deck armor thickness disagrees between infobox and main body. Also torpedo diameter for Leipzig.
  • Must have been a typo.
    • Did Leipzig really have 50 cm torpedoes in the infobox? And don't forget the space for the ×.
      • Yes, I guess I overlooked that when I wrote the prose section. Parsecboy (talk) 14:57, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
• It's a class article, add turret and barbette armor to the infobox
  • Done.
• Add info on the aircraft and their handling equipment.
  • Added.
• Rephrase this: Nürnberg was the only major warship of the Kriegsmarine to survive the war intact, apart from the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen, along the lines of "Nürnberg was second-largest Kriegsmarine warship to survive the war intact, after the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen, ..."
  • See how it reads now.
    • Looks good. Take care of these minor tweaks and we'll be done.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:11, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
• Need place of pub for Whitley and standardize on either state abbreviations or spelling them out.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:34, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
  • Fixed. Thanks for reviewing the article, Sturm. Parsecboy (talk) 01:02, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
