  • Good to see an article on an obscure class done, however there are a few issues here. First and foremost, the hook is...well, I'm the last person to say "hook must be 'interesting' or no DYK for you", but it's extremely dry. Perhaps something about the actions of ships of the class might be good for an alternative hook? Also, looking at the references in the article, citations [2] and [3] are to sources I would raise concerns about the reliability of, while citation [2] is also a dead link. (Also, as a pet peeve quibble, saying "The" before a prefix, i.e. "The BRP Simeon Caestro", is strongly discouraged, and all the ship names in the article need to be italicised). - The Bushranger One ping only 17:58, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
