There seems to be a bit of instability with the article just recently, but not enough to fail the criteria. The article looks to be in good shape, the prose is ok, sources seem reliable and the article is well cited. It is stable enough, covers the subject well, and there are no issues with plagiarism or copyright. A few nitpicks, mainly with inconsistencies between the infobox and body:

• the beam dimensions are a bit off, using a decimal for feet in the infobox instead of inches, and the conversion is slightly different
  • fixed
• the displacement conversions are different between the infobox and body
  • fixed
• the speed conversions are reversed in between the infobox and body for some reason (not a biggie, but I thought I'd mention it)
  • fixed
• the range isn't in the infobox
  • added
• the crew numbers don't gel between the infobox and body
  • fixed
• the lower range of the belt in the infobox isn't supported in the body
  • added
• the conning tower armor doesn't gel between the infobox and body
  • fixed
• drop the hyphen from "early-1945"
  • fixed
• a query about the June 1924 turret explosion. If it exploded, wouldn't that have caused some of the crew casualties? Maybe I don't understand how these things work...
  • Expanded for clarification
• drop the initial caps from "(Initially identified..."
  • fixed
• in the Refs, there is a formatting prob with Man of War, probably an errant space
  • fixed
• the licensing for the infobox image should probably note the assumption that the author was a US Navy employee, also the source link is broken
  • Not sure what is needed, may be fixed
• File:USS Mississippi BB 41 in New York in 1919.png likewise
  • fixed
• amidships, lattice mast and San Francisco are overlinked
  • fixed

Placing on hold for the above to be addressed. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 00:38, 1 December 2016 (UTC)

I hope these fixes are correct, I saw Parsecboy hadn't fixed them for a couple of days so I went ahead, like I said, I hope I helped.Pennsy22 (talk) 07:03, 2 December 2016 (UTC)

Thanks. Parsecboy are you happy these edits address my comments? Cheers, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 06:17, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Yeah, they look good to me. Thanks! Parsecboy (talk) 12:50, 5 December 2016 (UTC)

Me too. I'd just suggest that you specify the number of officers separately from men in the body, as they are separated in the infobox. Passing. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 22:39, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
