GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
One dupe link
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
Nothing turned up in Google Books, so good there.

Do you happen to know what work was started before the keel laying? I'd assume work on the engines or turret or something.
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
Nothing much to pick at here. Great work as usual. Parsecboy (talk) 15:04, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

My source doesn't specify, but I suspect that it was some of the internal framing and similar stuff based on how the Brits built Dreadnought so quickly. Some of my references show the building slip before the formal keel-laying and it was strewn with partially assembled frames that just need to be craned into place and then riveted together. Typically, if built by the shipyard, the engines, boilers and other machinery, were built on a totally separate schedule from the hull so I really have no idea how their construction times related to that for the hull other than the obvious. It also depended on if the shipyard typically installed them before or after launching.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:37, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough, can't ask for something that's not in the source. Parsecboy (talk) 20:13, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
