Move
editI've moved this page to a British English format, as per Tag below. Xyl 54 (talk) 13:15, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
I’ve moved this now to the format suggested at the MilHist discussion on naming convoys. Xyl 54 (talk) 11:38, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
Table; possible copyvio
editI've re-arranged the “Ships in the convoy” table, as there were a number of issues.
First, the source shouldn't be in the heading, as it cacks up the display in the edit summary. So I've moved it.
Second, and more importantly, it looks like it was copy&pasted from Arnold Hague's convoyweb, which is a bit naughty. I've split the table, re-done the escort ships section, and added one on the U-boats involved, so that it's more like an order of battle.
Third, the text of the article needs looking at, as the information in the table (from Hague) is out of step with the main text (which is from the books listed). I'll have a go at that later. I trust everyone is OK with this, Xyl 54 (talk) 17:47, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
