Lede

Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section, the lede of this article adequately defines the cruiser, establishes the cruiser's necessary context, and explains why the cruiser is notable.
The info box is beautifully formatted and its content is sourced within the prose of the text and by the referenced cited therein.
The image of Giuseppe Garibaldi is released into the public domain is therefore acceptable for use here.
The lede could stand to have some more content included from the "Design and description" section for a more comprehensive summary of the entire article. This could be done by stating how many guns the ship had, or mentioning the size and number of its compliment.
The lede is otherwise well-written, consists of content that is adequately sourced and verifiable, and I have no other comments or questions for this section.

Design and description

This section is well-written, consists of content that is adequately sourced and verifiable, and I have no comments or questions for this section.

Construction and service

Wiki-link La Maddalena, Sardinia, Levant, and Crete in the first paragraph.
Wiki-link Tripoli in the second paragraph.
In the third paragraph, it should be specified for the reader that the actions around Ragusa were in the Adriatic Sea.
This section is otherwise well-written, consists of content that is adequately sourced and verifiable, and I have no comments or questions for this section.
- I've linked everything that hadn't already been linked in the lede and added a mention of the Adriatic to the article as you requested. Thanks for your review.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 18:39, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
