- Initial comment: This looks good to me. I just need a little more time to go through it and check that there are no outstanding issues. Gatoclass (talk) 09:42, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
- Is it reasonably well written?
- A. Prose quality:
- She then replaced her sister Kaiser Friedrich III as the squadron flagship, under the command of Prince Heinrich, which had to be docked for repairs - Which ship was under the command of Heinrich? I think that needs to be clarified. Also, I'm not sure what "Marine-type" boilers are, do you have any more info on this? Gatoclass (talk) 09:14, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
- I reworded the line, how does it look now? As for the boilers, for some reason Groener refers to them as "Marine-type boilers," what he means is just "naval boiler." Parsecboy (talk) 10:28, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
- The reword looks fine. I don't know what a "naval boiler" is either, but I'm not going to hold up the nom just over that. Gatoclass (talk) 10:55, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

- Would be nice to have a little more detail about the ship's service in the Baltic in WWI. Gatoclass (talk) 09:48, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
- I know, but it just isn't out there. I've trawled through Google Books for wartime publications, and there isn't much concerned with these ships. Paul Halpern's A Naval History of World War I, which does a pretty good job of covering the Baltic, doesn't mention Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse or any of her sisterships at all.

- Okay, just thought I'd ask. Gatoclass (talk) 09:10, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

- A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
- B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
- I tweaked the caption to clarify that it's an image of a sister ship, not Kaiser Wilhelm herself. If that's okay with you we can tick this one. Gatoclass (talk) 09:53, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
