Prose

- A few issues, all minor
- "after allowing the navies of other countries to pioneer submarine developments, in 1904 ordered the Austrian Naval Technical Committee (MTK) to produce a submarine design."
  - "in 1904" is out of place.
    - Reworded to avoid awkward phrasing
- "When the Navy rejected the January 1905 MTK design and other designs submitted as part of a public competition as impracticable"
  - One longgg part of a sentence...
    - Split and reworded
  - What is the "MTK design"?
    - the design from the Austrian Naval Technical Committee, or MTK, referred to in the previous sentence.
      - Sorry, that was me being dumb. :) —Ed 17 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 19:58, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Random

- Do you really have to cite the same refs twice in the first para of "Service Career"?
  - The first one should have been for Conway's and has been changed.
- Can we get a ref for the submerged speed (I'm assuming that it is Conway's...?)
  - I think I got this changed(?)
    - Yep! —Ed 17 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 19:58, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm putting it on hold, but I'm not really worried that these won't get done. Yet another excellent article from you, Bellhalla! :) —Ed 17 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 16:04, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
