  • "and even travelled as far as Cuba, crossing the Atlantic Ocean, visiting friendly ports like Annaba in Algeria, Gdynia in Poland, Havana in Cuba and Rostock in East Germany" - A little picky, but the phrasing seems kinda like that these ports are on the other side of the Atlantic, while three of the four are on the European side
  • "This was amended to Guard Ship (Сторожевой Корабль, SKR) from 28 July 1977 to reflect the change in Soviet strategy of creating protected areas for friendly submarines close to the coast" - Two things. One, I'm not sure if "from" is the right word here. Also, pointing out something that happened in 1977 seems a little odd to put in the design section of a ship launched in 1970
  • In the infobox, indicate that the length figure is an overall length
  • "(NATO reporting name]SS-N-14 'Silex')" - Looks like there's a bit of a template error in there
  • Infobox mentions 2 × 45 mm (2 in) 21KM guns (2x1), not seeing where these are in the body
  • "following the Corrective Revolultion" - Spelling
  • " Attempts to preserve the vessel. the first of the class," - Comma instead of the period
  • The Russian ships website looks self-published. What are the authors' credentials?

Beyond these, it looks okay for GA status after these get fixed. Placing on hold. Hog Farm Bacon 19:24, 9 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. I have made these amends, which I think really help tighten up the article. I particularly like your point about Algeria, Germany and Poland inadvertently migrating west across the Atlantic. Hopefully it is clearer now. simongraham (talk) 21:09, 9 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
