### Initial comments
Same with Plymouth, I would recommend cutting red links from the lead, but I'll leave that up to you
"the ships were only lightly protected to maximize their speed" - maximise
"Their conning tower was protected by four inches of armour" - convert to metric
I was missing the initial conversion, but added now.
"Fearless, fifth ship of that name to serve in the Royal Navy" - missing "the": the fifth ship of that
"so it reorganized the Grand Fleet to make better to respond to further raids" - reorganised
"on 9 March to command the successful search for the recently spotted submarine SM U-12 (Germany)" - why is Germany in brackets? Seems odd to me as ships like Victory (Royal Navy) aren't stylised like that in articles
Mistake with the template.
"on the 19th to serve as the depot ship for several British G-class submarines based there" - extremely minor, but I looked at the article and I think "G" is italicised
Ordinarily you'd be right, but ship class names aren't italicized when they're not actually a ship name. There's not a ship named G, just ones named G-1, etc.
No dead links
Dab links OK
Once again, well written and comprehensive. On hold until all are clarified.  JAGUAR  11:30, 8 April 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for catching all the fussy little BritEng mistakes.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 16:05, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for addressing them once again. Promoted  JAGUAR  18:55, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
One problem, though: it's anachronistic to use metric for ships of this era, and that leads to conversion creep.  Anmccaff (talk) 19:41, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
