I'll get to this shortly.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 20:56, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • No DABs
  • No pics or line drawings are available?
    • Nothing I've been able to track down - there was File:Varo RN Basilicata.jpg, but it was determined at the Italian list ACR that without a publication date, we couldn't use it.
  • Specify that the displacement in the infobox is full load
    • Done
  • Use ftin when converting from meters.
    • Can you tell that this is an old article?
      • ;-)
  • Specify and link type of boiler in the infobox and tell the reader that the engines in the infobox that they're steam engines
    • Done
  • Link ihp in the infobox
    • Done
  • Link naval cadets, register, broadside
    • Done
  • She was also equipped Pronoun problem
    • Fixed - good catch
  • on each broadside in sponsoned on the main deck Missing word?
    • Fixed
  • Both of these guns were manufactured by Ansaldo and were designed in 1912 and 1917, respectively. Design date not important here. Fold Andsaldo into the preceding sentence.
    • Reworked - that whole section was a bit confusing
  • explain L/40
    • Fixed
      • Not entirely. They were also equipped with two Ansaldo 76 mm (3.0 in) L40 guns and three 76 mm 40-cal. guns in anti-aircraft mountings Rework this to say that two guns were in low-angle mounts and 3 in high-angle ones or somesuch. Also, if you're going to give shell weight for these guns, you should definitely do it for the 152mm ones.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 16:30, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
        • Good catch - ctrl+F for "L/" didn't spot that one ;) Oddly enough, I can't get a shell weight for the 152mm - neither Friedman nor Conway's provides it (Conway's doesn't include the 40-cal. version in the table, and the shell weight varied between the 50-cal and 45-cal guns of that caliber).

          • Strange, but not that critical. Aren't the low-angle and high-angle guns, the same weapons, just on different mounts? I'll let you sort that out on your own.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 18:19, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge the appropriate cells in the table and link the headings
    • Dunno why I only half did that to start with...
  • Where in the world is Etobicoke?
    • Part of Toronto, apparently - linked. Thanks Sturm. Parsecboy (talk) 15:43, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
