Mostly I fixed non-anglophone usages ("battery" for "artillery", "in" for "on"). Some formatting clean-up, removed many excess links, rephrasing to clarify opening section. There was an error: the original light AA was described as 13.7mm in one place, instead of 13.2mm. Also spelling errors, and run-on sentences.

message: User:JRPG explained his edit (16:09, 10 January 2013‎ ) about Richelieu 's speed, with «Remove 'Her speed was surpassed only by the fastest U.S. Navy battleships.' Faster than contemporary US and British ships yes, but Bismarck and Littorio seem at least similar speeds». May I not completely agree ? In the Siegfried Breyer's book,  «Battleships and battle cruisers 1905–1970» (1973, London, Macdonald and Jane's, ) cited in the article bibliography, we can read the Richelieu 's speed was 30 knots (p.436), as Littorio(p.386), and Bismarck was credited with 29 knots (p.300). But in the same pages, the speed reached during trial runs of 32.0 knots is indicated for Richelieu (32.13 knots for Jean-Bart), 31.42 knots for Vittorio Veneto (and 31.29 for Littorio), 30.1 knots for Bismarck (and 30.8 knots for Tirpitz).Paul-Pierre Valli (talk) 13:17, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Richelieu's speed 

message: This is a great article with a huge amount of well referenced material. I think, though, that some of the writing, while creative, is overly complex.
I've simplified the second paragraph in the introductory section and I would appreciate opinions on whether the new version is easier to understand. Thank you.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Seanmcdill (talk • contribs) 14:35, 13 August 2014 (UTC)

message: hi, I may have read over the point where the article says this. the ship is detached to Eastern Fleet "because only armor piercing ammunition is available" after being "specially made in the US based on plans sent from dakar" but then seemingly the next mission is shore bombardment. Where did the ammunition suddenly come from? thanks for clarifying.84.215.194.53 (talk) 84.215.194.53 (talk) 12:16, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: That's a good question - they just used APC shells at Sabang without regard for their general low usefulness for that purpose (though they did destroy or damage several targets). I've clarified in the text. Parsecboy (talk) 20:39, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
