Another one of my seemingly interminable German warship articles :) Seriously, though, I think this article is fairly comprehensive; it passed GA about a month ago, and I have recently dug through my copy of John Campbell's Jutland: an Analysis of the Fighting and added what extra bits I could. I appreciate all comments and suggestions. Thanks in advance. Parsecboy (talk) 20:03, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • You need to fix up the convert measurements.
  • What happened to this ship between 1916 and 1918? I see a gap there. --Brad (talk) 00:37, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • I think I've got all the conversions now, but if I missed any, can you point them out? As for between 1916 and 1918, I haven't found anything; it seems she sat in port for the majority of it. It would be probable that she took part in this operation, since her sistership Oldenburg was there, but Nassau isn't mentioned by name as having been there. Should I add it on the assumption that she was there? Parsecboy (talk) 12:46, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • Support I added some non-breaking spaces where needed. Better to leave the time gap in the article than to begin assuming. I've run into the same problem on a couple of frigate articles I've worked on. Not much can be done about it. --Brad (talk) 19:20, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Support. Good, except that at the end of the Jutland section it seems to imply that she was hit while standing guard at night, is that correct? If not, it should be rephrased. – Joe N 00:25, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks for pointing that out, I've fixed it. Parsecboy (talk) 12:46, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Support. Needs a link to the article on the main armament. Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 16:56, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • We don't have a 28 cm SK L/45 gun article (or equivalent), do we? I looked through the relevant category as well as List of naval guns, and it appears there isn't an article about this particular model. Parsecboy (talk) 12:46, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
