Comments[edit]

The text states there were six 45 cm (18 in) torpedo tubes while the inf box has 5 × 45 cm (17.7 in) torpedo tubes
The footnote could use a cite
The inf box has - Fate: Scrapped in 1920 but the text says - battleship was stricken from the naval register on 8 March 1921 needs clarification

--Jim Sweeney (talk) 00:21, 22 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ranks correct?[edit]

"On 29 August, Kapitän zur See (Captain at Sea) Walter Engelhardt replaced Alberts aboard Schwaben." - A Captain replaces a Rear Admiral (KAdm=Konteradmiral=Rear Admiral)! Serious? Any sources for this? 80.151.9.187 (talk)

Um, yes, the source cited in that paragraph... Parsecboy (talk) 09:53, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
