Initial comments

• I would recommend removing all red links from the lead, but I'll leave that up to you
  • One of these days, I'll start those articles.
• The lead summarises the article well, so no issues there
• "Her conning tower was protected by four inches of armour" - convert to metric
  • Converted in the armament section.
• "She was still assigned to the 3rd Battle Squadron of the Grand Fleet in Scapa Flow at the start of the war" - World War I
• "As a scout cruiser, the ship was only lightly protected to maximize her speed" - maximise
  • I think that my subconscious leaves these in so you have something to comment on, sigh.
• No dead links
• No dab links
• Ref 6 needs filling out
  • I'd love to, but I don't have access to the archive.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 21:52, 1 May 2016 (UTC)

Excellent work once again. Once all of the above are done this will pass. JAGUAR  21:13, 1 May 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for looking this over. BTW, I finally remembered that tonne is the British spelling of what Americans call metric tons, and all those usages have been abbreviations so they never made an appearance.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 21:52, 1 May 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for addressing them, and the "tonnes" confusion! Without any further ado, promoted JAGUAR  22:43, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
