First pass

I need to go over this again, but this is what I can see so far. Please check. Thanks. Djmaschek (talk) 04:49, 20 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

  • Introduction says that the Pola was assigned to the 3rd Division before the Matapan action, but the narrative says she was in both the 1st Squadron and 1st Division.
    • Fixed, 3rd Division is correct
  • It is not clear if 1st Squadron and 1st Division mean the same thing. If Division is a sub-group of Squadron, please clarify.
    • Should be clearer now.

Second pass

I'm assuming that the characteristics in the infobox are the original ones. Even allowing for armament upgrades, there are some small inconsistencies. Djmaschek (talk) 04:23, 22 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

  • Introduction and text say Pola had a top speed of 32 knots while the infobox says 33 knots.
    • Must have been a copy-paste error from Zara
  • Text says four 40 mm guns while the infobox says 6 x 40 mm.
    • Think that's a typo
  • Text says eight 12.7 mm guns while the infobox says 8 x 13.2 mm. Text says that the 13.2 mm were added after the 40 mm were removed.
    • 12.7 is correct for the original guns - the 40mm and 12.7mm guns were replaced with the 37mm and 13.2mm guns.

Other items.

  • Missing word: "On 3 September 1936 she Gaeta..."
    • Fixed
  • 1939 or 1940? "On April 7-9, Pola provided gunfire..." Last date was 7 March 1939 and next date is 10 June 1940.
    • Should be clear now
  • Missing comma: "Pola Trento and Gorizia..."
    • Good catch
  • Date typo: "...off Taranto on 11-11 March."
    • Fixed.
  • Cape Matapan date says 27-29 March. The infobox says Pola sank on 29 March 1941. This important date should be mentioned in the battle narrative and possibly the introduction also.
    • Clarified the dates in the Matapan section.

30 Nov.

I've been checking on this article every 2-3 days. But it's the end of the month and the last edit was 18 November 2014. Djmaschek (talk) 03:01, 1 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
