  • I love reading about ships for some reason, so another won't hurt anyone. Courcelles (talk) 03:35, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • That works out well for us, seeing as I like writing about them ;)
  • "The ship's hulls was" Hulls was, subject-very agreement.
    • Good catch - I tend to copy sections like that from article to article and adjust as necessary, but I missed that one.
  • "The ship was powered by a pair of 2-cylinder marine steam engine " engines?
    • Fixed
  • "ducted into two retractable funnel" Funnels?
    • Yup
  • "20,000 dollars" Which dollar? US I assume?
    • That's a good question - Hildebrand et al usually refer to prices in marks, but they just state that one of the demands was a "Zahlung einer Entschaedigung von Dollar 20.000". I'd have to assume they're referring to USD, but I don't know for sure.
  • "decommissioned for the last time on 31 March 1909 " The next paragraph indicates this wasn't the last time...
    • Good point - I was thinking it was the last time of her normal career, but I see that could be confusing and isn't strictly correct.
  • Good little article you have here. Well done. Courcelles (talk) 03:48, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
