Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
A. References to sources: 

B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary: 

C. No original research: 

Is it broad in its coverage?
A. Major aspects: 
Were the guns rifled muzzle-loaders or breech-loaders?
Groner doesn't say (and it's hard to tell - the Prussian Army made the switch to breech-loading guns at least as early as the Austro-Prussian War, but I don't know when the Navy did). Conway's has even less information on the guns, and Navweaps doesn't go back that far. I'd wager that they were breech loaders, but that's just a guess. Parsecboy (talk) 23:49, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
Fair enough.
B. Focused: 

Is it neutral?
Fair representation without bias: 

Is it stable?
No edit wars, etc: 

Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales: 

B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions: 
Pics?
None that I could find. Unfortunately, these old ships predate most of the naval annuals and the like where you could find PD-US photos or illustrations. I suppose I could claim fair use on a linedrawing from Conways or Groner. Parsecboy (talk) 23:49, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
Pictures available on Commons of all three, albeit some with uncertain sourcing. I'm not really gonna get too worked up them if that's the case.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 00:36, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
Same as the Prinz Adalbert image, there's no source so we can't use it, not even as fair use. Parsecboy (talk) 00:54, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
A fair-use image would be good regardless.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:39, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
Overall:
Pass or Fail:
