• I"ll take this one. Courcelles (talk) 18:47, 4 July 2018 (UTC)

• Is "cruising radius" the correct term?
  • Yeah, it's fairly commonly used
• Speaking of range, why is it given at 9 knots in the prose and at 10 knots in the infobox?
  • Good catch, I hadn't checked the infobox when I finished expanding the article - when it was created, apparently the box for Bismarck was copied to all of the ships of the class, though there were small differences between each one - I'll have to be sure to fix the others when I get to writing them.
• I think I'd rather see a direct source for "In the years that Blücher was in service, the majority of German naval officers and enlisted men received their torpedo training aboard the ship, though she did not actually begin training new crews until 1 May 1881." given the "majority" language.
  • It's covered by the cite to Hildebrand et. al.
• "On 27 October, Blücher was decommissioned following the end of the annual training maneuvers." When was she recommissioned?
  • Hildbrand et. al. don't say - normally they're pretty good about covering the commission/decommission dates, but for whatever reason they did not include that one.
• This looks really good. Courcelles (talk) 20:54, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
