Japanese battleship Kawachi
edit- ... that the Japanese battleship Kawachi (pictured) capsized and sank only four minutes after an internal magazine explosion on 12 July 1918 while at anchor?
5x expanded by Sturmvogel 66 (talk). Self nominated at 05:42, 8 September 2013 (UTC).
DYK checker is being thrown off by something, but it was prior to your edits a 985 character article and is now a 5139, which is over a 5x expansion. Article is fully cited and expanded within the last five days (in fact, expansion started yesterday). Hook is interesting (and as a person who formerly worked on ships, the idea that a battleship sank in only four minutes is utterly terrifying). Good to go for DYK.
