Cites in lede[edit]

@Sturmvogel 66: I couldn't find any reference to "Ekaterina-II class" battleships in the body of the article, or indeed the part about the ship being too heavy and the armor underwater. Please do not remove the cites for those unless the same information is also included and cited in the body. Cites in the lede are not prohibited, anyway, just that often they're unnecessary if the lede is properly summarising the article content. Thanks — Amakuru (talk) 13:11, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
