The impression is that the characteristics in English Gröner, Erich (1990). German Warships: 1815–1945. Annapolis: Naval Institute Press. ISBN 978-0-87021-790-6. and German Gröner, Erich. Die deutschen Kriegsschiffe 1815-1945 Band 1: Panzerschiffe, Linienschiffe, Schlachschiffe, Flugzeugträger, Kreuzer, Kanonenboote. — Bernard & Graefe Verlag, 1982. — 180 p. — ISBN 978-3763748006 are different.
I have made some edits to the USS Nevada page and you have reversed them. First off, the USS Nevada has four (4) main gun turrets and this has not changed since her launching. There has been a comment included in her description following her modifications about how she now resembles the South Dakota Class of Battleships, which in the whole scheme of things is based on a "hasty observation." You changed this edit because you state that it is not really relevant. An observer is trained to look at both overhead and profile attributes of the target in question, to state that the difference between the USS Nevada that has four (4) main gun turrets and the South Dakota Class that has only three (3) gun turrets as irrelevant in light of the comment that the Nevada now bears resemblance to the South Dakota class is not irrelevant. In fact, the only attributes that make the Nevada resemble the South Dakota class (externally)is the replacement of her previous secondary battery by the 5"/38 twin gun turrets. Now even the South Dakota bears a resemblance to her siblings because she has the same three (3) main gun turrets, however; she is dissimilar by the fact that she only has eight (8) twin 5"/38 gun turrets as oppose to her siblings which has ten (10) of them. So the statement that the Nevada bears a resemblance to a class of battleships is in of itself incorrect as a single ship does not in and of itself make a class when it has siblings. You do not compare the innards of a ship and say that it resembles another ship. you make comparisons base on external physical attributes. If you disagree with my line of thinking, please enlighten me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joedumlao ( talk • contribs) 06:40, 12 March 2013 (UTC)
May I ask you on your opinion on this discussion? I am being accused and threatened with ban from Wikipedia by other German Wikipedians on the grounds of pushing a Nazi POV. MisterBee1966 ( talk) 17:43, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
You were asking in the FAC for a footnote along these lines, I think: "The impact of the revolutionary battleship HMS Dreadnought (1906) was such that all ships of her type became known as "dreadnoughts"." At first I was okay with it ... but I feel like that's going to get really distracting if it's popping up in every battleship article; we don't have etymological footnotes in Milhist FACs, generally. Perhaps if we're careful to say "dreadnought battleships" a few times, and link it, people can read up if they need to, and they'll at least know that it was a battleship if they don't click. Does that work for you? - Dank ( push to talk) 01:31, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

Aye there, 'Parsecboy', I'm a member of WikiProject Ships. To help naval historians here at Wikipedia in the effort of writing and citing naval history articles sometime ago I created the List of ships captured in the 19th century and Bibliography of early American naval history pages. Over the last year(+) I have been tracking down and including names of captured ships and naval history texts for inclusion in either of these articles. I like to think that I have included most captured ships (19th century) and most naval history texts (covering the 1700s-1800s) for inclusion in these articles, so if you know of any captured ships or naval history texts that are not included would you kindly include them, either on the page or the talk page of the appropriate article? Any help would be a big help and feedback is always welcomed. Thanx! -- Gwillhickers ( talk) 21:52, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

This is a note to let the main editors of SMS Blücher know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on April 11, 2013. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask featured article director Raul654 ( talk · contribs) or one of his delegates ( Dabomb87 ( talk · contribs), Gimmetoo ( talk · contribs), and Bencherlite ( talk · contribs)), or start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/requests. You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/April 11, 2013. If it needs tweaking, or if it needs rewording to match improvements to the article between now and its main page appearance, please edit it, following the instructions at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. The blurb as it stands now is below:
SMS Blücher was the last armored cruiser built by the Imperial German Navy. She was designed to match what German intelligence incorrectly believed to be the specifications of the British Invincible-class battlecruisers. Blücher was larger than earlier armored cruisers and carried more heavy guns, but was unable to match the size and armament of the new battlecruisers. The ship was named for Gebhard von Blücher, commander of Prussian forces at the Battle of Waterloo. After being commissioned in 1909, Blücher served in the I Scouting Group for most of her career, including World War I. She took part in the bombardment of Yarmouth and the raid on Scarborough, Hartlepool and Whitby in 1914. At the Battle of Dogger Bank in 1915, she was slowed significantly after being hit by British gunfire. Franz von Hipper, the German commander, decided to abandon Blücher to the pursuing enemy ships in order to save his more valuable battlecruisers. She was sunk and British destroyers began recovering the survivors, although they were forced to withdraw when a German zeppelin began bombing them, mistaking Blücher for a British ship. Estimates of the number of casualties range from 747 to around 1,000. ( Full article...)

If you still have an interest in critiquing the Mahan-class destroyer article, I’m ready when and if you are able. But right now, though, I have an immediate problem I could sure use your help with. Problem: I’d like to delete a section of unnecessary text (my own) that contains a number of inline citations without fouling the respective notes, which I have not been able to do. It’s the Design section of the USS Mahan (DD-364)] article, and the text I refer to pertain more to the Mahan-class article than to the (364) article. I’m still trying to bring the (364) article up to speed, thankfully doing it with the help of some other busy editors like you. In any case, thanks! Pendright ( talk) 23:33, 16 April 2013 (UTC)

Ya, it’s me again! I’ve covered much of the ground you set out in your last critique of the 364 class, except for this: “you’re missing a short summary of the ships of the class.” I take this to mean that an individual summary is needed for each ship of the class. The C and D-class destroyer article appears to me to follow a similar format; the difference is that many of their ships can and are discussed in groups -which is not the case here, as I see it. If my assumption were correct, then I would need 18 individual summaries because grouping would not be an option. Forgive my thick-headedness, but I hate to look at this number without some kind of acceptable approach. Your help is always appreciated. Pendright ( talk) 21:58, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
Japanese aircraft carrier Akagi has been nominated for June 4 (71st anniversary of loss) but I notice that it's the 100th anniversary of the launch of SMS Markgraf the same day, which is one of your FAs.

I’ve been pondering your suggestions, but without much success. I don’t see any shortcuts here, regardless of approach. The eighteen ships will require a ton of digging to out the information one needs or wants, however one presents the information. I’ve looked at the examples you referred too. But in this case, grouping seems like as much or more effort than the individual approach. My lack of experience suggests using the straightforward approach: “do eighteen short sections on each ship individually. “ Can I take this to mean: focus on the major stuff and keep the verbiage within a certain word count, yet tell each ship’s essential service history? Beached in the boondocks! Pendright ( talk) 23:48, 26 May 2013 (UTC)

"UrbanNerd" - have had a few encounters and talks about this editor over the past 2 years - most recent talk about him can be seen here - one of my first negative encounters with this person can be seen here. To the question I have ... - At a wikimeetup in march there was talk about a proposal to make editors with multiple blocks be they for behavior or original research, uploading copyright material etc... to have to be mentored for a period of time upon there return. Are you aware of this type of proposal ever being proposed? Moxy ( talk) 04:32, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
Sorry, I didn't see that someone else had already started a discussion about this user before starting my own section (now merged in here). I wanted to contact you because I noted that you recently blocked User:UrbanNerd for disruptive editing and chided him on incivility. I have had many interactions with that user over quite a while and have been subject to my fair share of personal attacks from him, but I normally don't report it or bring it up to anyone besides, from time to time, him. However, given that he's just come off the 24 hour block you placed on him and has proceeded resume editing disruptively at Canada Day, making abbrasive, personal comments--" Use talk if you want to ruin another article your bias british rhetoric", "Even more Monarchist crap... i've removed yet more monarchist rhetoric by everyones favorite monarchist editor"--and reverting again at Template:WW2InfoBox, I felt it might be time to raise his behaviour with a wider audience. The not-so-passive aggressive attacks I quote above are tame compared to much of his prior commentary; a few examples being: [1]. [2], [3], [4], [5], and etc. This is an ongoing pattern; what do you think is the appropriate course of action? -- Ħ MIESIANIACAL 23:11, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

If it needs tweaking, or if it needs rewording to match improvements to the article between now and its main page appearance, please edit it, following the instructions at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. The blurb as it stands now is below:
SMS Markgraf was the third battleship of the four-ship König class and served in the German Imperial Navy during World War I. The battleshiP was launched on 4 June 1913 and commissioned into the Imperial Navy on 1 October 1914, just over two months after the outbreak of war in Europe. Armed with ten 30.5-centimeter (12.0 in) guns in five twin turrets, she could steam at a top speed of 21 knots (39 km/h; 24 mph) *. Markgraf was named in honor of the royal family of Baden; the name Markgraf is a rank of German nobility. She took part in most of the fleet actions during the war, including the Battle of Jutland in 1916 and Operation Albion, the conquest of the Gulf of Riga, in late 1917. After Germany's defeat, Markgraf was one of the ships interned by the Royal Navy in Scapa Flow while the Allied powers negotiated the final version of the Treaty of Versailles. On 21 June 1919, days before the treaty was signed, the commander of the interned fleet ordered the fleet to be scuttled to ensure that the British would not be able to seize the ships. Unlike most of the scuttled ships, Markgraf was never raised for scrapping; the wreck is still sitting on the bottom of the bay. ( Full article...)

I was thinking about replacing the background section of the Tosa-class article with that from the Nagato-class battleship.

What do you think?-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 22:24, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

I seem to have moved a page from my sandbox to User:List of aircraft maintenance carriers of the Royal Navy and now it won't let me delete the user part. Dunno how that happened, but I'd appreciate it if you could fix it for me.-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 14:02, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
