Yugoslav torpedo boat T5 (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Toolbox

Built in 1914–1915, this ship served in the Austro-Hungarian navy during WWI, and was then transferred to the fledgling Navy of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (later Kingdom of Yugoslavia) in 1921. She was captured by the Italians in April 1941 during the Axis invasion of Yugoslavia, and then saw service with them. Handed back to the Yugoslavs in 1943, she saw out the rest of the war, and then went on with the post-war Yugoslav Navy until 1962. This article went through GAN a couple of months ago and is one of eight articles on this class of torpedo boat that saw service with Yugoslavia, two of which have already gone through ACR.

  • I spy one duplicate link for Durrazo.
  • Same comment about context on the Szent Istvan sinking as T3.
  • Ditto for scout/light cruiser description for the Saidas
  • Ditto again for links in the ref section.
  • Link displacement, propeller, drifter
  • All these done.
  • Hadn't thought of this for the other review, but were any of these boats involved in the Cattaro mutiny in any way? The Halpern article cited in SMS Novara (1913) mentions that 14 of the 250-ton boats were in Cattaro at the time, but does not state which boats were present.
  • Per that review, the torpedo boats were not seriously affected by the mutiny, Bell & Elleman also don't give the designations of any torpedo boats involved.
  • Wouldn't Zadar have been Zara at the time?
  • Good catch, fixed.
  • Nothing on what the vessel did in 1944 and 1945? Parsecboy (talk) 14:59, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • No, the navy in exile was based on Malta, so I suspect it was based there, but it probably wasn't up to much given its age. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 04:26, 14 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Fair enough, on that and the mutiny points - worth a look, I guess. Parsecboy (talk) 18:16, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support
    • All tool checks ok (i.e. no dabs, external links work, no citation errors, no duplicate links, Earwig tool reveals no issues with copyright violation or close paraphrase [1]).
    • Image licencing, caption and alt text look fine.
    • I made a couple of minor edits [2], otherwise I couldn't see any issues after reading through it. Anotherclown (talk) 03:38, 29 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • "built in 1914–15, she..." --> probably should be 1914–1915 per WP:DATERANGE
  • inconsistent: "330 tonnes (320 long tons) fully loaded" (body) v. "330 t (325 long tons) (full load)" (infobox)
  • "and this contributed to ongoing problems with them", probably could just be "and this contributed to ongoing problems"
  • I wonder if potentially the "ongoing problems" could be clarified more?
  • do you know if the name Cer was chosen to commemorate the Battle of Cer? If so, and if there is a ref, perhaps this could be mentioned?
Thanks Rupert. All done, except there is no more info on the ongoing problems. I think the implication is that they didn't have much of an idea about turbines at the start. So far as Cer is concerned, I think it is more likely that it was named after the mountain of that name, but it is possible it was the battle (which happened near the mountain). I haven't seen a source that says either though. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 10:45, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No worries, nice work. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 10:59, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
