Ignorants at work

The list is not only confusing, but pure bullshit. Officers of different ranks and centuries are thrown together. A Vizeadmiral of 1871 is not equivalent to a Vizeadmiral of 1971 etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:7E:8F5D:3941:7917:9ED5:D474:5679 (talk) 15:45, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. The list should not be grouped by rank, but by "navy". Within the "navy", it could be grouped by rank, however I am not convinced that this is neccessary. Compare to the list in the German WP.--Bungert55 (talk) 16:46, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Missing Karl Eduard Heusner

Sort of an odd, glaring omission. Parsecboy (talk) 19:56, 17 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Georg Hebbinghaus is also missing. One wonders what others have slipped through the cracks. Parsecboy (talk) 15:49, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Georg Scheder is another omission. Parsecboy (talk) 13:45, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
