Initial comments

• "The ship served as the flotilla leader for the 2nd Destroyer Flotilla" - I recommend removing this red link
• "Bellona spent the bulk of World War I with the squadron" - the 1st Battle Squadron?
  • Clarified.
• "Her conning tower was protected by four inches of armour" - convert to metric
• "As a scout cruiser, the ship was only lightly protected to maximize her speed" - maximise
• "On 17 December 1914, Bellona collided with the destroyer leader Broke" - why is the HMS prefix missing?
  • I generally save the prefix for when a ship is operating in a group of mixed nationalities.
• No dead links
• No dab links

Minor nitpicking stuff, but this will pass once they are all out of the way JAGUAR  21:16, 1 May 2016 (UTC) Thanks for reviewing this. It's been a pleasure working with you.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 21:58, 1 May 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for addressing them. You too! With all of those done, I'll pass this. JAGUAR  22:42, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
