Shouldn't the German order of battle include a light cruiser, if one was damage in the battle? Sailboatd2 (talk) 15:30, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
Sense edit
This does not make sense (section Background):
- ... was sent to raid German minesweepers clearing swept a channel through British minefields in the Helgoland Bight
--Mortense (talk) 10:22, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
- You have a point. How's this re-write: "On 17 November 1917 a strong force of cruisers under Vice Admiral Trevylyan Napier was sent to attack German minesweepers, which were clearing swept a channel through British minefields in the Heligoland Bight. The intentions of the German force had been revealed by British Naval Intelligence, allowing the British to mount an ambush."
CE edit
Began a tidy-up; auto-ed, citations scan, dupe wl, templates changed bolding by ; to ''' as the semi-colon is apparently illegible to machine readers. Not sure about which German ships in the OOB weren't involved in the action. Keith-264 (talk) 12:34, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
