Merger proposal
editI see no reason why we should have separate articles for this ship in Russian and Japanese service when both are fairly short.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 06:06, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
- Sure go ahead (Pindanl (talk) 21:25, 18 November 2011 (UTC))

- It is reasonably well written.
- a (prose):
b (MoS):
- Watch ENGVAR - see "armoured" and "armored", "harbor", "defenses", etc.
- "After providing naval gunfire support to the Imperial Japanese Army..." - surely she wasn't supporting the IJA in the RJ War?
- I'd pipe the link to Strashnii - it looks out of place compared to the rest of the linked ships
- Got what appears to be a missing link in the first line of the second para in the career section
- Watch your spelling here: "After the death of Vitfeft during the Battle of the Yellow Sea on 10 August, Viren was promoted"
- "She was subsequently trapped" - I'd recommend using the ship's name here
- a (prose):
- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
- What's the difference between Corbett I and II? I only see one entry in the ref section.
- Two volumes.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 21:05, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
- What's the difference between Corbett I and II? I only see one entry in the ref section.
- a (references):
- It is broad in its coverage.
- a (major aspects): b (focused):
- Where did she go between 1912 and 1914? Laid up?
- Not mentioned other than her refit in '13.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 21:05, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
- Was there any involvement in operations during WWI?
- Other than the one training cruise, none.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 21:05, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
- Where did she go between 1912 and 1914? Laid up?
- a (major aspects):
- It follows the neutral point of view policy.
- Fair representation without bias:
- Fair representation without bias:
- It is stable.
- No edit wars, etc.:
- No edit wars, etc.:
- It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
- a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
- a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):
- Overall:
- Pass/Fail:
- This isn't required, but you might want to turn Russian cruiser Bayan into an index page (or at least add a hatnote on this article to the later ship). Parsecboy (talk) 20:28, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
- Pass/Fail:
Good idea. I think that I've caught all the AmEng'isms and otherwise dealt with all of your comments. Thanks for the review.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 21:05, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
- Looks good now - I fixed the "Viren" mentioned above. Parsecboy (talk) 12:14, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
