1. Well-written:
- A: Prose -
Minor FailPass- While the prose is generally good, there's a few minor issues with regards to sentence structure. The article could benefit from a light copyedit, mostly to tighten the prose.
- There are still a few minor issues, but none significant enough to hold it back from GA. I would recommend a thorough copyedit if you wish to take the article further than GA.
- B: MoS - Pass
- No issues with MoS.
2: Factually accurate and verifiable:
- A:References to sources - Pass
- B: Inline Citations from Reliable sources -
Minor IssuesPassWhat makes Andrew Wilkie (3D Viribus Unitis) reliable?- I've got a replacement to that....--White Shadows It's a wonderful life01:18, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
- I've removed it from the text.--White Shadows It's a wonderful life 02:39, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
- I've got a replacement to that....--White Shadows It's a wonderful life01:18, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
- C: No Original Research - Pass
- Everything looks good here.
3: Broad in its coverage
- A: Addresses Topic - Pass
- The topic is well addressed.
- B: Focused -
Minor issuesPassI think the length of the "Characteristics" section could possibly be trimmed down a bit. Personally, I'd scrap the bit about the armoured belt, and combine the deficiency bit with the end of the armaments paragraph. Typically, you only give a very brief overview of the characteristics of the class. The best examples are here and here. Most of the characteristics stuff can be put into the overarching class article,

4: Neutral - Pass
- No issues here.
5: Stable - Pass
- No evidence of edit-warring.
6: Images
- A: Copyright Statuses -
Minor issuesFile:Vunitis-class.jpg - the copyright can only have expired if we know the date of the actual drawing. Either add the date to the drawing or eliminate the image from the article.File:Vu1912.JPG - same issue. We don't know the dates of the author.
- I've removed and replaced (the line drawing one) the images in question.--White Shadows It's a wonderful life 01:39, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
- B: Relevance and Captions - Pass
Overall: On Hold Pass
Generally, the article's in pretty good shape. I'm giving the text a light copyedit, and there's a few other issues that need to be dealt with before it can pass its GA.
- All the issues have been dealt with. This article is now GA! Well done! Cam (Chat)(Prof) 01:41, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
