Very nice work here on some rather obscure ships. Just a few niggling things keeping this from passing:
- It is reasonably well written.
- "...all three ships only served...", suggest "all three ships of the class..."
- "during their brief lives"; suggest "brief service lives"
- "...the Director of Naval Construction", suggest "of the Admiralty" or "the Admiralty's..."
- I think this one's OK, actually.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:19, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
- "...speed over 13 knots"..., I think "of" shoud be in there?
- No, they were faster 13 knots.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:19, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
- "They were poor sailors", suggest "the ships were" as some readers could presume the ship's crew was being referred to somehow.
- "Her crew was relieved in 1884 and the ship remained on station...[until] 1887", was Briton crewless at this time, laid up at anchor? Or was another crew put aboard?
- "followed her sisters after a two year delay...", accurate but looks slightly awkward. Perhaps "The construction of Thetis..."?
- "China Station" should be wikilinked (are there pages for any of the other Stations?)
- Added and all are linked in the lede. All other comments addressed except as noted.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:19, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

- As I said, there's just a few minor things that need addressing here, so I'm putting this on hold until they can be tweaked. The Bushranger One ping only - 07:10, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
