Raised for scrap from the bottom of the sea ?

[edit]

The last sentence says the ship was sold for scrap in 1922. How was this ship raised from the bottom of the sea of japan ? Was it really sunk in the first place ? Or was the 1922 reference to it being sold for scrap, actually refering to a completely different ship ?Eregli bob (talk) 06:41, 21 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The reference is pretty clear that the ship was the Navarin. Notice how most of the other ships listed were in the Second Pacific Squadron. --Ceradon talkcontribs 08:11, 21 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well until today it said "Navaro".

Hi! I'll be reviewing this article for GA status, and should have my initial comments up shortly. Dana boomer (talk) 22:49, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    • Design and description, "This unusual arrangement gave the ship her unusual nickname of Factory" - unusual...unusual
    • Oh my, yes.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    • This photo wasn't even in the article, but I'm now using File:Battleship Navarin.jpg which is sourced to Cassell's History of the Russo-Japanese War, published in 1905.
    • Deleted this one.
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:

One prose niggle and (the main reason I'm holding instead of immediately passing) both images have licensing problems. Once these are addressed, I think the article should be good to go. Dana boomer (talk) 23:45, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 00:17, 14 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
