Design and description
"This change could only be applied to the three least-advanced ships, including Effingham, although she did not receive the full upgrade." - This copied and pasted from the Effingham article?  Looks like you forgot to switch out the name of the ship.
Damn computer!
I know some ships had a different crew strength when serving as a flagship.  Is this applicable here?
Maybe, but nothing in the sources.
Construction and career
"has been the only ship of her name to serve in the Royal Navy" - Might be worth a footnote that HMS Parker (1916) was apparently known as Frobisher for a decent chunk of its construction
I thought about it, but decided against doing so since Parker was renamed before completion and so didn't actually serve in the RN under that name.
"In 1929–1930 the ship served with the Atlantic Fleet,[10] By June 1930 her - Period, not a comma
"By June 1930 her aft superfiring gun had been removed to provide space for a floatplane" - Okay, so I'm half-asleep as a review this, so maybe this is just a comprehension issue, but " four of which were in superfiring pairs fore and aft of the superstructure," sound to me like there were two aft superfiring guns, so its unclear which was removed
Superfiring pairs means one gun superfiring above the other, not two guns superfiring over another
References
The Dreadnought Project is an iffy source.  It looks like one of the higher-quality wikis, but it's still a wiki.
Yes, but's one with the editors vetted by the operators, who are reputable scholars.
It'll be fine for GA, I guess, but I'd expect a better source for higher levels. Hog Farm  Bacon 15:06, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
Campbell isn't used
Need a location for Heathcote

It's in a category for being built in Portsmouth, but the prose says it was built in Devonsport
Unrelated to this article, but worth a thought
The dab page HMS Frobisher could conceivably be reduced to dual hatnotes per WP:TWODABS, unless there's a third Frobisher not listed there.
That's it for this one. Hog Farm  Bacon 04:08, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

The original plan was to replace all seven 7.5-inch ...
"replace" should be understood as "place again"? 151.29.45.128 (talk) 21:46, 23 February 2025 (UTC)
