@Sturmvogel 66 No rush, but it has been a month. Would you like more time or someone else to conduct the review? GGOTCC 20:33, 2 July 2025 (UTC)

isolated, crippled, torpedoed, and sunk Probably fun to write, but not really encyclopedic, n'est-ce pas?
Le français me fait peur :(
How did the boilers drive the propeller shafts?
I reworded it. How does it read now?
The 1935 photo shows the ship with gun shields on the upper weapons
Ah...I added a clause mentioning that the upper guns lacked shields when built
I thought that the 76mm guns were AA guns?
They are? Does the article not mention that?
My mistake.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:42, 6 August 2025 (UTC)
Missing links, IMO: laid down, launched, commissioned, sister ship, turret, smoke screen
Done!
Any issues to the survivors? Where did they land?
minor note, the presentation of the weapon sizes differs between the infobox and the main body. Suggest you standarize and add a conversion for .50 caliber in the infobox
Done! --Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:32, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
@Sturmvogel 66: Thank you for the feedback! How does it read now? GGOTCC 16:31, 6 August 2025 (UTC)

Why does the article speak of "more modern and capable Japanese destroyers closed to a range where they could use their anti-aircraft guns" when 
A) Only Asashio and Ōshio were involved in this stage of the fight
B) Even if the Asashio class weren't among the most capable Japanese destroyers of WW2 - only surpassed on a large scale by the Kagerō class destroyers at this point (which were just slightly larger Asashios with improved propulsion systems and torpedo reloads) - there were only the four Asashio class destroyers of destroyer division 8 involved in this battle, no others types. Michishio and Arashio saw some action in the second stage of the engagement Micheal Harrens (talk) 05:58, 30 May 2025 (UTC)

The quote, refrenceing a source, regards how a Dutch destroyer from the 1920s was outclassed by two large and newly-built Japanese destroyers GGOTCC 10:14, 30 May 2025 (UTC)
Sorry about that. It might need to be reworded just a little bit as to not cause confusion Micheal Harrens (talk) 14:08, 30 May 2025 (UTC)
