- It is reasonably well written.
- a (prose):
b (MoS):
- Why are French translations for some units/commands given but not others?
- Because I'm not always sure of the actual term, many of which changed over time, much like the term for French Navy varies from Marine nationale to Armée de mer.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:44, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
- I'd link Port Said
- What type of ship is Jeanne d'Arc?
- Good catches.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:44, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

- a (prose):
- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (references):
b (citations to reliable sources):
c (OR):
- This has some details on her service in the Cruiser Squadron - don't know if anything warrants inclusion but thought you might want to give it a look.
- This on (p. 76) gives a bit more detail on the activities of the Training Squadron - might be worth adding
- See p. 170 here - she had a grounding in the Yangtze in Nov. 1900
- Haven't looked myself, but anything in Ropp's book worth including? I have a copy if the one in Google Books doesn't show anything that might come up.
- Thanks for your suggestions and I've added some extra material from them, although the ship's not mentioned in Ropp, who's better at the earlier classes.
- a (references):
- It is broad in its coverage.

- Any way we can track down the original source for File:Amiral charner.jpg? Heh, while digging through the old journals, I found it - see here - it's much higher-res but also it's a bad scan - maybe somebody can clean it up a bit?
- It might be hard to do without rescanning it, but I'll ask Adam about it.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:36, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hohum has cleaned up some photos like this that I've uploaded in the past (see for instance this one) - maybe he can take a look as well? Parsecboy (talk) 19:50, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
- I have Photoshop, I should be able to get rid of the moiré effect given directions, which is probably all that these guys are doing.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:58, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
- Fair enough - I don't have anything that fancy ;) Parsecboy (talk) 20:29, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

- Can we get a line-drawing from an old Brassey's? I'm sure it's out there. (and indeed there is one in this one) Might even be a usable illustration/photo out there as well - a lot of the French ships of this generation have them floating around (or at least the early pre-dreadnoughts did)
