I'll take this one as well. Comments: Lead
- Suggest linking 12-inch guns
- Done
- she was reorganized into the Home Fleet is potentially confusing, perhaps reword as transferred to the Home Fleet when the Mediterranean Fleet was reorganized into a squadron of it' or something similar
- That works for me.
- and converted 'was' may be necessary here
- Fixed
More later. Kges1901 (talk) 02:21, 23 December 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks - I've fixed the Design section issues you highlighted in the Montagu/Cornwallis reviews, so hopefully that'll save you a little time ;) Parsecboy (talk) 17:22, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
Operational history
- In general, you have year duplication in this section
- Fixed
- four surviving sister ships of the Duncan class could just be 'surviving sister ships' and not mention class
- Done
- abolished temporarily suggest 'temporarily abolished'
- Done
- Duncan and her four Duncan-class sisters, as well as the battleships of the King Edward VII class, temporarily were transferred no need to mention class name again, suggest 'were temporarily transferred' instead
- Done
- Albemarle and the rest of the 3rd Squadron Shouldn't that be Duncan instead?
- Indeed
- use the fleet in an active way Suggest 'use the fleet for active operations'
- Sounds good to me
- neutral Greece 'neutral' is redundant
- Good catch
- dup link Salonika
- Fixed
- operations against Greek royalists what exactly were these operations?
- Added a bit of detail on this
- Is the shipbreaking company notable enough for a link?
- Probably not
- Suggest adding at least one image to the body, as the service history has no media currently
- I don't know that there's a good option - I could do a map, but the ship kind of bounced around during the war and wasn't particularly active in any single area
- How about File:HMS Duncan (1901) in 1908.jpg?
- "Probably Royal Navy" is not good enough - we need to know who took it and when it was published. Parsecboy (talk) 21:18, 27 December 2018 (UTC)
- Does Burt not have image credits? There is also the ship badge on commons. Kges1901 (talk) 21:33, 27 December 2018 (UTC)
- No, he doesn't attribute any of the photos. I don't know what use the badge would be, apart from purely decorative. Unfortunately, the British pre-dreadnoughts don't have many pictures of them available online (that are easily provable to be in the public domain - my go-to resource is the NHHC's collection, but for whatever unknown reason, it doesn't include many British ships).

That's all I have. Kges1901 (talk) 17:02, 27 December 2018 (UTC)
