177:. The ship saw heavy service during World War I, including the Battle of Jutland and Operation Albion. I feel the article is high quality and is at or close to FA standards. Any issues that may be found can be ironed out during the FAC. Thanks in advance to all those who take the time to review the article.

According to Koop & Schmolke page 117 the Königs Class ships carried 6 x 8.8cm L/35 - C/06 MPL which were later replaced by either 2 or 4 x 8.8cm Flak L/45 C/13 MPL. This means that
Markgraf either carried 6 (in the beginning) and later either 2 or 4 8.8cm guns, but never 10. I think this needs a

Sorry but I don't understand something about the 8.8 cm König class battleship armament in general. The König class battleship article states that initially it carried six 8.8 cm (3.45 in) SK L/45 quick-firing guns which were later removed and replaced with four 8.8 cm SK L/45 anti-aircraft guns.

Post review comment: Due to the use of the map an inconsistent spelling of Großer Kurfürst is introduced to the article. The map spells the ships name with ß while the article spells it as

I don't know that I'd call the armored cruisers of the 1st CS elderly. They were made obsolete by the introduction of the battlecruiser, but were less than a dozen years old.

the infobox (both in König class battleship as well as in the SMS Markgraf infobox) it reads: 10 × 8.8 cm (3.5 in) guns! Shouldn't it state: 4 or 6 × 8.8 cm (3.5 in) guns?

Standardize the conversion of the displacement between the infobox and the main body. I'd suggest using LT|t in the template, but that's just me.

Groner seems to indicate that the ships carried the six QF and four AA guns as built, and all six QF and two of the AA guns were later removed.

I disagree with this as a requirement for 1b/c - the namesake is uncommon in the major secondary sources we rely on for all ships, not just the
