I will do this one, which looks in good shape anyway. Comments as follows:

Lead

Inconsistent usage of units when discussing primary & second armament, also inch used in full but not millimeters?
- The 164 mm guns were French (presumably the 164 mm Mle 1858 guns carried by Gloire or the Mle 1860 guns carried by Couronne - the source doesn't specify) but I'd assume the 8-inch guns were British, since the French did not use a gun of this caliber at the time. It's appropriate to give the caliber in the unit of measure used by the designer (for instance, Slava carried Russian 12-inch guns and French 47-mm guns).
Not sure the second usage of Austria really necessary
- Good point

Infobox

the piping for the wikilink to steam engines needs to be made singular
- Fixed
check the conversions for length, draft, and the battery armour to what is in the article text

Design

Meters and ton used in full on first usage but not feet or millimeters
- Both spelled out
The conversion for 8 inch to mm is very slightly different to what is in the lead
- Fixed

Service history

"Italian fleet"; suggest that this should be the "Italian Regina Marina"
- Sounds fine to me
link Adriatic?
- Good idea
Austrian Navy linked twice
- Fixed
"They there?"
- Heh - should have been "were"
"More dangerously, by stopping Re d'Italia,..."; suggest a little more context for this ship as this appears to be its first mention.
- Does just adding a link to the ship in the first sentence of that paragraph work?

Yip, works for me. Zawed (talk) 07:27, 13 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That's it for me, will check back in a few days. Cheers. Zawed (talk) 02:28, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The changes made so far look good, but you seem to have overlooked checking the conversions in the infobox? Zawed (talk) 07:27, 13 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Whoops, I did miss that. Thanks for the reminder - should be good now. Parsecboy (talk) 12:58, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

All good, passing as GA. Cheers. Zawed (talk) 08:03, 20 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
