   Pass/Fail:

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)
