SMS Braunschweig (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Another one of my German battleship articles (we're nearing the end!) up for A-class review. This ship saw action in World War I at the Battle of the Gulf of Riga, but otherwise had a fairly quiet career that spanned almost 30 years (in the Imperial and Weimar navies). As always, thanks to those who review the article! Parsecboy (talk) 13:27, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

This article is in great shape. A few comments from me:

  • link Displacement (ship)
    • Done
  • is information available on the positioning of the TTs?
    • Will have to look, though my guess is that since it's not already in the class article, Groener and Conway's don't specify
  • the max and min belt armour differs between the body and infobox
    • Fixed
  • her range isn't provided or cited in the body
    • Added to the body
  • "named for the Duchy
    • Good catch
  • link ship commissioning
    • Done
  • "That yeahr"
    • Sturm got that
  • Ehrhard Schmidt should probably be just Schmidt on second occasion, per WP:SURNAME
    • Fixed
  • repetition "in the Baltic, owing to the threat from submarines in the Baltic" Trim?
    • Fixed
  • image review all ok, except for File:SMS Braunschweig NH 47693.tiff, which should probably have the NHHC tag
    • Done

That's me done. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 00:28, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

G'day, Nate, nice work. I have the following suggestions: AustralianRupert (talk) 13:50, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • "1921–22" --> "1921–1922" per WP:DATERANGE (in lead and postwar career section)
    • Fixed
  • "File:134 Kong Haakon VII forladende Tysk Panserskib Braunschweig - no-nb digifoto 20160209 00511 bldsa PK15135.jpg": would probably look more visually appealing if the border was cropped
    • Good idea - done
  • the infobox says the ship was scrapped in 1932, but I couldn't find 1932 mentioned specifically as the date in the article
    • Removed the year
  • Citation # 26 "Polmar & Noot, p. 44–45" --> "Polmar & Noot, pp. 44–45"
    • Good catch
  • the second entry (Gardiner) in the Further reading section is probably not necessary as it is already in the References
    • Fixed
  • there is a slight inconsistency in the hyphenation of the ISBN for the Dodson work (when compared to the other ISBNs)
