I hope everyone will excuse my ignorance, but when the article says "four turbo generators, which provided 260 kW (110 V)", is it converting kW to V, or is it saying that any power outlet onboard had 110 volts, AND the generators cranked out 260 kW.

Reviewer: Jackyd101 ( talk) 16:24, 29 April 2010 (UTC) Hi there, I am happy to tell you that this article has passed GA without the need for any further improvement. Listed below is information on how the article fared against the Wikipedia:good article criteria, with suggestions for future development, mainly concerning additional details that would benefit the article. These are not required to achieve GA standard, but they might help in future A-class or FAC review process.
Thankyou and congratulations, an excellent addition to Wikipedia:Good Articles. All the best.-- Jackyd101 ( talk) 16:24, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
Is of SMS Gneisenau according to the image tag. It certainly isn't a Roon class vessel - the details of the stern are noticeably different. I have removed it. Drutt ( talk) 23:26, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
Says who? On paper they may have fewer guns, but in practice the ships have very similar capabilities to the Duke of Edinburgh class, which are their closest contemporaries. I can't find any references in any of my books saying that the ships were worse than any nation's rivals or unsatisfactory in anyway other than the casements being unworkable in any kind of swell. Obviously if we compare them to the Warrior subtype they don't look so good, but then you'd expect that as the Warriors were (re)designed to overmatch them...
