World War I
71.28.83.87 (talk) 11:40, 10 September 2009 (UTC) "After outbreak of WW I" makes it sound like the sinking happened just after the war started, when it was almost a year into the war. I changed it to "during WW I".
 * That's a valid point. Thanks for fixing it. Parsecboy (talk) 12:09, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

Linienschiff
71.28.83.87 (talk) 11:48, 10 September 2009 (UTC) Re Note 2: While 'linienschiff' does mean literally 'ship of the line', and 'schlachtschiff' means 'battleship'; by usage, I would translate 'linienschiff' as 'pre-dreadnought battleship' and 'schlachtschiff' as 'dreadnought battleship'.


 * The reason I kept it as "ship of the line" is because the Germans didn't refer to them as "pre-dreadnought." For instace, Erich Gröner's German Warships 1815-1945, which relies on official German documents, refers to the ships as "ships of the line." The later Scharnhorst and Bismarck classes are simply "battleships." Parsecboy (talk) 12:09, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
