February 2006[edit]

The information contained in this article is completely copied verbatim from the Stethem offical website and is clearly not written from a neutral point of view. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dr. Arbitrary (talk • contribs) 08:50, 21 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Stethem official web site is a .gov site, an therefore it is not under any copy write. Wikipedia is free to use the text. Not sure what the NPOV problem is. San Saba 18:50, 22 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Capitalization[edit]

The capitalization of ship names and several other names in this article are not grammatically correct. These should be fixed. Schnabeltier Angriff 19:28, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

NPOV[edit]

This article is missing the NPOV, e.g. at the end we find:

After this successful engagement, STETHEM celebrated by transiting north to Juneau, Alaska and Victoria, B. C. for some well deserved rest and relaxation. All of the STEELWORKER’s took advantage of great opportunities for sightseeing and shopping.

Also the preceeding paragraphs are telling how flawless and precise the ship and its crew are working.

Another point of critique: the capitalised spelling STETHEM instead of italics in the second half of the article.

Please improve.--213.155.224.232 19:51, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Info needed[edit]

There is a huge gap in the ship's history from 2003 to 2017. Even then, there is a only a single incident noted for 2017 and no further info since. FYI - wolf 20:57, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
