1. Is it well written?

   A. The prose is clear, concise and understandable to an appropriately broad audience, and the spelling and grammar are correct:

   B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:

2. Is it verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check?

   A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:

   B. Reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):

   C. It contains no original research:

   D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:

   Earwig reports only 2%, probably because most sources are in German

   I checked with an older version of Hildebrand et al ; pagenumbers hence do not match but the content check is ok

3. Is it broad in its coverage?

   A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:

   B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):

   Here a few questions/suggestions

   Hildebrand mentions in 1972 most of the Jäger class ships were re-armed with 15 cm guns, but for Wolf it is unclear whether this happened in the end.

   Good catch, Groner states that all surviving ships received the 15cm gun

   I see you mention a few commanders of the ship by name, and by red link. Are these notable people ? ifso maybe this can be mentioned like 'the future admiral X'. Otherwise i see no reason to mention the names of obscure Leutnants.

   Yes, they're all future admirals, with the exception of Otto Zembsch, though he transferred to the diplomatic corps and ultimately became ambassador to Peru (see his de.wiki bio) - not sure about adding qualifiers though, since I'd need specific sources for their later careers.

   Maybe you can mention Wolf is the last ship of her 15-member class

   Good idea, added

   Hildebrand mentions the battle of 3 july in the Hiddensee was more specifically for the town of Dornbusch (Hiddensee)

   Interesting - in my edition, it simply states that Wolf was assigned to III Flotillen Division, "mit der sie an dem Gefecht bei Dornbusch am 3. 7. teilnahm." Is there more in the earlier edition?

   Yes, correct, so I'd mention Dornbusch rather than Hiddensee

   I don't see a lot of value in doing so, since Dornbusch is just an area of Hiddensee, and there is no town there, but I also don't feel all that strongly about it either - done. Parsecboy (talk) 04:17, 20 June 2026 (UTC)

4. Is it neutral?

   It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:

5. Is it stable?

   It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:

6. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?

   A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content:

   B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:

   Same images as in most GA Jäger class pages

7. Overall:

   Pass or Fail:
