I will review this article for GAN. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 04:27, 1 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

Initial comments: G'day, Sturm, this looks pretty good to me. I have the following comments/suggestions: AustralianRupert (talk) 06:18, 1 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

  • there are no dup or dabs links (no action required)
  • ext links all work (no action required)
  • the earwig tool reports no copyright violation as likely (no action required)
  • images lack alt text, suggest adding it in (suggestion only): [1]
  • "File:Le Triomphant AWM-P05103.003.jpg": source link does not seem to work - suggest using {{AWM-image}} instead
    • I wasn't sure how to fix this, so thanks.
  • the article is well referenced, using reliable secondary sources in most cases; the two instances of primary source use they appear to be used simply for dates/facts and are used appropriately (no action required)
  • "File:Le Triomphant AWM-P05103.003.jpg": suggest using the PD-AustraliaGov licence
  • should classification as a light cruiser be mentioned in the lead?
    • I don't think so as it was really just nominal. These ships were around the size of the German Type 1936 and the US Gearing-class destroyers.
  • slightly inconsistent: "Launched: 16 April 1934" (infobox) v. "She was launched on 16 April 1933" (body); otherwise the infobox matches the body
  • then began having engine --> "then began experiencing engine"?
  • according to th AWM the ship was given a small RAN detachment, might be worth a brief mention: [2]
  • the large destroyer only --> the ship had been reclassified as a light cruiser by this time
    • Good catch
  • Temporary repairs there took until 21 February: suggest maybe mentioning the year here
  • Le Triomphant was the first French warship to deploy to French Indochina, arriving --> "Le Triomphant was the first French warship to deploy to French Indochina in the postwar period, arriving..."?
  • slightly inconsistent "Dumas" v "Doumas"
