"was a one of five Gloire-class armored cruisers " - I don't think "a" is necessary
" two singe-gun wing turrets" - I'm not particularly familiar with naval warfare, so I can't tell if "singe-gun" is a term I'm not familiar or a typo for "single"
Maybe I'm just missing something, but I'm struggling to find where the 174mm armor thickness for the barbettes is reflected in the prose
Infobox says it was laid down on 9 August 1899, prose says February 1901. The 1899 date appears to be the order date.
Infobox gives completion date of 17 April 1904, prose gives 1 April 1904
No need to link Canada per MOS:OVERLINK
"and she had required frequent repairs until she was sent to Brest for a refit in March 1916." - Not sure that "had" is necessary
Link Brest in the prose, most North American readers don't have a great grasp of French geography

Generally Wordpress isn't a great source, but since it just seems to be hosting a primary source report, it's accessable, since the report is reliable and I'm assuming good faith that the Canada At War Blog properly posted the contents of the report. If a better hosting of the content is available, I'd recommend using that before taking this article to ACR or FAC.
I'm not seeing where the "French Cruiser Sully" from the references is cited at all. If it's not used, move to further reading.
The EL redirects to a home page, repair or remove.
Is there an OCLC, ISBN, or ISSN available for Kennan?

This just goes to show the value of a second pair of eyes. Many thanks for the review.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 14:13, 16 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
