Hi! I'll take this article for review, and should have my full comments up by later tonight. Dana boomer (talk) 23:22, 22 April 2014 (UTC)

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
It is reasonably well written.
a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar):  b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists): 
Design, "The Schwalbe class was the first unprotected cruisers" - "Schwalbe class was" is singular, but "unprotected cruisers" is plural.
Fixed.
General characteristics, "transverse framing composed on steel, wood, and copper" - Should this be "composed of"?
Not quite sure how I managed that typo, since the "n" and "f" keys aren't all that close :)
Service history, "Both ships were sold for scrapping in August 1920 and were broken up for scrap in 1922 in Hamburg." - Scrapping...scrap, repetitive.
Fixed.
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (reference section):  b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR): 

It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects):  b (focused): 

It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias: 

It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.: 

It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales):  b (appropriate use with suitable captions): 

Overall:
Pass/Fail: 
Just a few minor prose issues, so I'm placing the article on hold to allow them to be resolved. Dana boomer (talk) 00:38, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
