Lead & infobox[edit]

The lead passes, but within the info box, you must convert all measurements.

Please convert missile ranges. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 00:18, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please establish the identity of Project 15A somewhere in the subsection.

"...steel for the lead ship was cut in March 2003." You mention this twice. Please remove the second mention for fluidity.

"Construction began in September 2003 at Mazagon Docks..." In Mumbai or Nhava?

Done added Mumbai, as mentioned in the Naval Technology reference. Anir1uph | talk | contrib 20:13, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"St Petersburg's..." Please refer to the demonym as "Russia's" as opposed to the ambiguous "St. Petersburg's".

Done Added city's wikilink. Anir1uph | talk | contrib 20:13, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"...expected to be 30,000 crore (US$5 billion)." What was/is the cost of Project 15A? Can this data be procured?

Done That data is already mentioned in the section "Ships of the class". I have expanded on that. Anir1uph | talk | contrib 20:13, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"...US Dollar 1 billion in costs." Please abbreviate using the following symbol: $.

"After finalisation of design..." If you are using British English, please ensure that this is uniform throughout the entire article, and then specify it on the talk page.

Added Indian English template. Anir1uph | talk | contrib 20:16, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It isn't visible on the talk page. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 00:24, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Aah, i didnt add it to the talk page. I have done that now. Anir1uph | talk | contrib 03:31, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Design and description[edit]

Again, conversion is necessary.

Done Anir1uph | talk | contrib 20:13, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"...they are the largest destroyer..." Plural form, please.

Ships of the class[edit]

"...including the cost of spares..." Spare equipment and armaments?

The cited reference says, "The three Project 15-A Kolkata-class destroyers, bigger and more heavily armed warships, will each cost the navy Rs 3,800 crore (US $950 million), including the cost of long-term spare parts." I have corrected the language to be more accurate. Anir1uph | talk | contrib 20:16, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Are you unable to complete the table?

The table can be completed only when the ships are commissioned, which has been regularly delayed due to over-runs. Better to leave it empty than guess (No reliable sources exist for the same). For Home port,The navy usually gives out that info during the commissioning ceremony. No reliable reports are available for those either. Both will be filled as and when the ships are inducted. Anir1uph | talk | contrib 20:16, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the homeport matter was the underlying intent of the inquiry. This is fine. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 00:21, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
