I have fixed this article somewhat, however there is some stuff to be done. Feel free to contribute, and please do if you can.

This is a very unsatisfactory article, quite uneven. Only tells bits and pieces. A shame because these were very significant ships. The intro paragraph is not very useful, and the design paragraph does not contain enough real design information to stand on its own, so I have combined them. Someone needs to do the wartime history. -- Busaccsb ( talk) 01:54, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
Lookin' like someone's added the wartime history.

In the section World War II the phrase "When the war started for Japan" is what? Inaccurate, weasel words, cover-up? Reminds me of how the American Civil War was covered in Georgia high schools in the 50s and even beyond. Japan declared war on the U.S. and the British Empire (by Imperial rescript signed December 7, 1941 [Japan date])and followed it up by attacking Pearl Harbor on December 8, 1941 (Japan date). 74.190.109.98 ( talk) 20:38, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
The info-box claims that 2 were completed and 2 lost, but the Nagato obviously survived the war to be sunk at Operation Crossroads. We don't treat that as being "lost" for other ships that were sunk in that manner (e.g. the Agano-class cruiser article lists only 3 as being "lost," despite the Sakawa having been sunk in Operation Crossroads).
It seems that it should be changed to say "Lost: 1". I'd offer to do it myself, but I have a pathological fear of editing infoboxes. Just a Rube ( talk) 03:20, 26 January 2016 (UTC)
