Ok, let's finally get to this. At least then it'll be before the following weekend!

Image licence is good.
No dab links.
External links are all fine.
Link C-class cruiser when it appears in the first sentence of Design and description (as it'll be the first appearance in the article body itself).
Likewise, Royal Navy in the first sentence of Construction and career, and Grand Fleet in the same paragraph and Second Battle of Heligoland Bight in the following paragraph.
Link Bolshevik in the third paragraph of that section where it appears for the first time.
- Ummm, linked in the lede.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 20:40, 25 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You can remove the link to Estonia.
- I got chastised in a recent review for not linking (obscure) countries, and given the geographic illiteracy so common nowadays, I've taken that reviewer's comment to heart.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 20:40, 25 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Link Chanak Crisis where it appears in the article body (it only appears once there and once in the lead).
Second World War: [Pound sterling|£]two million - the wikilink is broken.
New York City 28 October 1941–26 February 1942 - stick "between" inbetween City and 28.
South Africa, 21 June–3 July - throw a between in there too.
Link East Indies Fleet towards the end - either piped to Eastern Fleet, or skip that and then just link Eastern Fleet when you specifically mention it.
References are all good, and I like the research template.

@Sturmvogel 66: That's everything - it's just all fiddling with links mostly. Miyagawa (talk) 19:33, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for reviewing this, Miyagawa. I generally only link on first use, regardless of location in an article of this length.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 20:40, 25 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - No worries - I just checked WP:REPEATLINK and it isn't particularly clear about whether there should be multiple links or not. It isn't helpful when a guideline throws a "general" in there and then contradicts itself in the following sentence! So happy to leave things as they are. Passing.
