I'll review this article shortly.--Tomobe03 (talk) 22:01, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
- There are several duplicate links which should be removed per WP:OVERLINK - Gun turret, Amidships, Battle of Port Arthur, Minefield, Protected cruiser, Capsized
- No dead links - no action required
- No dab links - no action required
- Added missing non-breaking space between 8 and "cm" in 8 cm/40 3rd Year Type
- Prose referencing seems to be in order - no action required
- I'd link Argentine Navy in the Background section
- Linked in the lede.
- The same section contains link to "Chile" and "Argentina" - WP:OVERLINK suggests those two might be dropped, but I have no problem passing the articles if they are left as is. If kept, the link to Chile should be moved to the first instance of the term though.
- Moved.
- In the same section, there is mention of "high price" of ¥14,937,390 (£1,530,000) - I assume the value in pounds (presumably British) is contemporary rather than modern - but some readers might assume a million and a half pounds is a bit expensive for a cruiser in todays terms. I'm not sure if this is actionable at all, but is there any way to tell the difference (or what's that in today's currency). - not a dealbreaker at any rate
- I'm fairly certain that the Argentinians made a nice profit on the sale, but cannot confirm it. Can't convert to modern prices because capital costs like warships don't use the consumer price index for inflation.
- The prose indicates ship's complement of 560, and the infobox lists 600 - I assume one of those numbers needs correcting
- There's one extra Russian in "... five days later, they encountered the Russian protected cruiser Russian cruiser Aurora and reached Suez on the 16th..."
- The article appears to be neutral, stable, well focused and reasonably comprehensive - no action required
- Images are properly licensed and have suitable captions - no action required
There are just few minor issues listed above to address - nice work. Cheers--Tomobe03 (talk) 13:26, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
