Comments[edit]

The text has - eighteen 8.8 cm (3.45 in) SK L/35 quick-firing guns and the inf box - 14 × 8.8 cm (3.5 in) guns (bet this does not crop up again)
The footnote could use a cite
Tarrant, V. E in the bibliography could use the publishers location added

All fixed. You know, you make one little mistake in one infobox and then copy it over to the other four articles...thanks for catching those :) Parsecboy (talk) 11:14, 22 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
