  • I'll get to this in the fullness of time.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 15:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Re Umberto ("King Humbert") was a Re Umberto-class ironclad battleship built for the Italian Navy in the 1880s. She was the lead ship of her class. Combine these.
    • Done
  • At that time, it was the Royal Italian Navy and put the Italian name for it in parens and italics.
    • Changed to "Italian Regia Marina (Royal Navy) - the Italian term is pretty commonly used
  • Couple of duplicate links.
    • Removed
  • She was armed with a main battery of four 13.5-inch (340 mm) guns, had a top speed of 20.3 knots use an "and" instead of the comma
    • Good catch
  • Add a link for naval gunfire support to the mention of bombarding in the lede.
    • Good idea
  • Link depot ship, floating battery, launched, torpedo boat
    • Linked all (except torpedo boat, which was already linked)
  • Re Umberto was 127.6 meters (419 ft) long overall and had a beam of 23.44 m (76.9 ft) and an average draft of 9.29 m (30.5 ft). too many "and"s
    • Tweaked
  • Explain what /30 means.
    • Done
  • Watch your roundings for your conversions in the text.
    • Should all be fixed now
  • Re Umberto was the first battleship to be constructed out of the newly created class of the same name–Re Umberto class Awkward, rephrase.
    • Just cut it - I didn't go over what was already in the article too thoroughly (since it was one you had done several years ago)
  • Link the builder in the infobox and main body.
    • Added
  • Her kneel was laid down on 10 July 1884 Link and fix the typo.
    • Fixed
  • What's Enrico Dandolo? Her sister?
    • Clarified
  • Some CSS issues with the Brassey's editions.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 02:57, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • Fixed, by removing the templates. Thanks, Sturm. Parsecboy (talk) 14:51, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
