Infobox says " Sold for scrap, 27 May 1907", while both times in the prose, October is mentioned.
Fixed
Lead: "Stein was laid down in November 1875, launched in October 1876" Infobox: "Laid down: 1876 Launched: 8 October 1877 Completed: March 1878"
Fixed
Same issue of different drafts in prose and infoboxes as the other ship.
Fixed
Prose and infobox displacement differ by about 100 tons
Fixed
Same issue with different ranges in prose and infobox, too.
Fixed - you'd think with one of these, I'd remember to check the infobox first
"She also carried six 37 mm (1.5 in) Hotchkiss revolver cannon." Strikes me that "cannon" should be plural here?
You can pluralize cannon both ways
Is the link to
Corvette (4) meant to be useful in "She was the third member of the Bismarck-class corvette"?
Nope, one too many pipes in the template
" and reached Batavia in the Dutch East Indies " Batavia is a dab link
Good catch
"France over Tonkin and Annam that led to" Annam is as well.
Fixed
"East Asia squadron" Should Squadron be in caps too?
Yes
"The ships left for an overseas training squadron shortly thereafter" Should squadron here read "cruise" instead?
Sometimes, you have to wonder what you were thinking when you type something like that...
"While Stosch was in Smyrna, Hollmann and his staff made an official visit to Sultan Abdul Hamid II." Should likely mention what he was Sultan of?
Good idea.
Sorry for so many nitpicks on this one.

Not at all - these are mostly things I should have fixed before I nominated the article ;) Thanks again!
