This article is in fine shape. A few comments from me:

the rounding of the length in the infobox and body doesn't match
- Forgot the "in" part
the draft is converted into decimal feet in the body, should be ftin
- I could've sworn I fixed all of these when I started writing this series - apparently not.
the engine didn't drive the boilers, it was the other way around. Reword?
- Good catch, that hadn't occurred to me ;)
where were the guns positioned? all broadside?
- Yes
Prussian Ministryer of War
- Good catch
link ship commissioning
- Done
suggest "deployment in the interest of improving the crew's rations, rather than relying entirely on hardtack."
- That works for me
suggest "necessity offor their presence"?
- Done
perhaps mention Saint Thomas was a Danish possession at the time
- Good idea
perhaps translate Unterleutnant zur See as you've done with the other rank
- Done
perhaps note that Halifax is in Nova Scotia (or Canada)
- Good catch.

That's it. Placing on hold for the above to be addressed. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 03:28, 17 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
