Hi there, I am happy to tell you that this article has passed GA without the need for any further improvement. Listed below is information on how the article fared against the Wikipedia:good article criteria, with suggestions for future development. These are not required to achieve GA standard, but they might help in future A-class or FAC review process.--Jackyd101 (talk) 13:44, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

• It is reasonably well written.

  a (prose): b (MoS):

"she scored what one book called her greatest success" - name the book, if not the author or publisher (i.e. "what Conway's Fighting Ships called her").

• • Added to the lead (the book was already listed in the main body text).

I saw that it was, but I felt it was appropriate to name the book in the lead too.--Jackyd101 (talk) 23:06, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

"In August, she was sent out to search for her missing sister ship" - include the information on her loss in the main article, not in an endnote.

• • Added.

Its usual in my experience to include "HMS" or "SMS" in the link when a surface ship that uses such prefixes is first mentioned.

• • WP:NC-SHIPS recommends not including the prefix if it's clear from context. I will be happy to add them if there are any that are not clear.

I ahdn't seen that instruction before and I have to say that I disagree with it. However, since it is in the guidelines, you should do what you feel is appropriate.--Jackyd101 (talk) 23:06, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

• It is factually accurate and verifiable.

  a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

• It is broad in its coverage.

  a (major aspects): b (focused):

• It follows the neutral point of view policy.

  a (fair representation): b (all significant views):

• It is stable.

  

• It contains images, where possible, to illustrate the topic.

  a (tagged and captioned): b (lack of images does not in itself exclude GA): c (non-free images have fair use rationales):

• Overall:

  a Pass/Fail:

Thanks for the review and suggestions. I've addressed your suggestions above. — Bellhalla (talk) 21:52, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
