- Indeed it should.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 06:12, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
- ALT1 ... that the Minotaur-class cruiser Defence was hit and exploded during the Battle of Jutland? Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 20:00, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
- ALT2 that the Minotaur-class cruisers of 1906 have been described by naval historian R. A. Burt as "cruiser editions of the Lord Nelson-class battleship"?--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 07:18, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
This article is a fivefold expansion and is new enough and long enough and already a GA. I prefer ALT1 but all three proposed hooks are referenced to a reliable source. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:51, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
