Design B-65 cruiser

All of the battlecruisers built and designed for Japan. The Kongo class battlecruisers were reconstructed into fast battleships before World War II and are often referred to as battleships. The Amagi class were cancelled due to the Washington Naval Treaty of 1922 and one ship was converted into an aircraft carrier. The B-65 design was never laid down due to World War II. I've only really worked on one of these, but I should be able to fill address any issues brought up during the review. I've structured the topic box deliberately to preserve class integrity.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:38, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

• Support - looks good to me (Disclosure: I worked on Amagi class battlecruiser with Ed and Maralia). Parsecboy (talk) 03:13, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

• Comments Support

Some disambiguation links need checking here [1]

All fixed except air raid which provides the basic definition used as well as dab links.

Also some references appear to need attention here [2]

Fixed.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:43, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

otherwise looks good Jim Sweeney (talk) 17:05, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

• Comment - Please give all of the images used in the articles alt texts. Some articles, like the Amagi class article, already have alts. Others do not. Sven Manguard Wha? 12:56, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
  • Not until they decide exactly what type of alt text is required.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:40, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
• Support - Given that I wrote the majority of the Kongo-class articles, I'm hesitant to chime in here (major WP:COI) but for what it's worth, kudos to Sturm & Co. for more excellent work. Cam ^(Chat)(Prof) 20:46, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
