Parsecboy, I've completed yet another thorough and comprehensive review and re-review of this article. This article certainly meets the criteria outlined for passage to Good Article status. Prior to its passage, however, I do have some comments and suggestions that should be addressed. Thank you for all your hard work on another well-written article! -- West Virginian (talk) 19:01, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Lede
- Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section, the lede of this article adequately defines the battleship, establishes the battleship's necessary context, and explains why the battleship is otherwise notable.
- The info box for the battleship is beautifully formatted and its content is sourced within the prose of the text and by the references cited therein.
- The USS New Jersey (BB-16) image is released into the public domain and is therefore suitable for use in this template.
- William B. Kennedy is listed in the template as the battleship's sponsor, but he is not mentioned in the prose. He should at least garner a sentence in the prose.
- It was actually his wife - I have no idea who she was, so I've just removed it from the infobox.
- The lede is otherwise well-written, consists of content that is adequately sourced and verifiable, and I have no further comments or questions for this section.
Design
- This section is well-written, consists of content that is adequately sourced and verifiable, and I have no comments or questions for this section.
Service history
- The image of the New Jersey as completed is released into the public domain and is therefore acceptable for use here.
- It wouldn't hurt to wiki-link keel in the first paragraph.
- Good idea.
- The image of the New Jersey in Boston on 3 May 1919 is a work of a sailor or employee of the U.S. Navy and is therefore released into the public domain and can be used here.
- This section is otherwise well-written, consists of content that is adequately sourced and verifiable, and I have no further comments or questions for this section.
- Thanks as always for your review. Parsecboy (talk) 20:13, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
