B class review[edit]

C class. This is a great article of B class quality, except please add the following material. Everything listed under General characteristics in the infobox (displacement, length, beam, draught, etc.) except Armament needs to be put into the narrative section of the article and cited. You could put this under the "Conversion from snagboat" section or add a new "Design" section. What I'm asking is fairly typical for a warship article. (See USS South Carolina (BB-26).) Also, "Post-war decommissioning" is not cited. Djmaschek (talk) 23:21, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
