Date of Scuttling[edit]

The page currently lists 12 October, 1994, but I have found many references to 12 November, 1994, and even one to 19 November, 1994. None of these pages qualifies as a first hand source, but the date in the article is also uncited. I'm going to go ahead and change it to 12 November.

On hold This article is in good shape, it is stable, images are appropriately licensed, prose is good, sources are all there and apparently reliable, structure makes sense and there are no obvious issues with neutrality or plagiarisation. There are just a few minor differences between the values in the body and the values in the infobox, which appear to be caused by difference in conversion template values. For example, the standard displacement conversion in the body says 1,050, but the infobox says 1,047. There are similar discrepancies with the conversions of overall length, beam and draught. Also, there is 40-millimeter but also metres, so they should just be consistent, British English is probably preferred for an ex-Brit warship. That's about all I could fault against the GA criteria. Great job as always on an interesting little warship. I'm just placing it on hold for those minor points to be addressed.
