Reviewer: QatarStarsLeague (talk · contribs) 16:02, 23 April 2013 (UTC) I will review this article, along with the five others. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 16:02, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

Introduction

Excellent.

Infobox

Additionally excellent.

Design

Very solid section.

Service history

Any idea why the plan fell through. This is a perfunctory detail, and so it is not necessary. It is merely a matter of curiosity.

Gröner doesn't say, but if I had to guess, it was probably a result of Versailles. The Treaty was signed about a week after this ship was stricken, and contained very strict limitations on the size of the German navy. I'd guess the manpower restrictions would have prevented them from manning another ship of this size. But that's just a hunch. Parsecboy (talk) 10:36, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

Interesting. That decision, if it had been prompted by a high-ranking admiral and of Germany's own volition, would have been an odd one. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 13:55, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

Conclusion

If you wish to expand upon my suggestion, then when those changes are made, I will pass the article. Even if you will not make the proposed supplement, I will leave the review open for a few days. Congratulations! QatarStarsLeague (talk) 00:37, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
