  • Isn't it standard to have the range in the infobox?
    • Yup, good catch
  • " cast iron, AP, and SAP projectiles" - I can tell what AP and SAP stand for, but the acronyms should be introduced instead of just brought it
    • Huh, I could've sworn I did that when I wrote that section - must have gotten distracted
  • Isn't armor plating typically in the infobox for these ships, too?
    • Yes indeed - added
  • Prose says keel laying in May 1896, infobox says 12 October 1895*
    • Fixed

  • The exact commissioning date of 10 October 1902 is not cited, only the month and year are.
    • Fixed
  • Namesake is not cited
    • Removed
  • Shouldn't Garbett go before Gardiner in the ordering of the references?
    • Yep
  • The succeeded by class needs cited
    • I don't think there's an expectation that nav templates need sources

  • The short description of "ship" is a bit lacking, something like "French protected cruiser" would be better.
    • Added that

The infobox needs quite a bit of work. Hog Farm Bacon 04:20, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
