A fact from Kamikaze-class destroyer (1905) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 25 September 2008, and was viewed approximately 5,900 times ( disclaimer) ( check views). The text of the entry was as follows: Did you know... that the Kamikaze class destroyer Shiratae was one of the few ships of the Imperial Japanese Navy to have been lost in combat during the Battle of Tsingtao? A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2008/September.

Title needs to be changed to "destroyers" as it sounds like there is only one ship. This needs fixing in the DTK nom too. cheers Victuallers ( talk) 09:24, 18 September 2008 (UTC) reply
