Articles for ship sub-classes
I've started a discussion over at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Ships#German Type IXA submarine article on the advisability of writing articles on sub-classes or flights of ship classes. White Shadows had written one on the A sub-class of the Type IX submarine despite my advice to seek consensus before doing so.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 07:04, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
- Actually I did. See a thread further up on the talk page of WT:SHIPS. No one ever answered so I figured that it muct not be a big enough deal or else I would have gotten a reply or some sort.--White Shadows you're breaking up 10:17, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

WikiProject Piracy
In the absence of a "WikiProject Naval history" I've tracked this task force down to appeal for input on Wikipedia:WikiProject Piracy which has been inactive and is need of overhauling (or keelhauling if it doesn't get off the ground).

Landing Craft Assault
Hi all there is a new editor working on the Landing Craft Assault article and doing a good job of it as well. He has posted on my talk – I am not a competent Wiki community member, so perhaps you would be so kind as to ask appropriate colleagues for some information: I can find no source that states RAN or RNZN ships carried LCA, neither can I find citations for LCA Flotillas in the RAN or RNZN. Any information would be great. – I am sure someone in the Maritime warfare task force will be able to assist and/or keep him right. Thanks --Jim Sweeney (talk) 14:25, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
- I don't believe that the RAN ever operated craft of this description (at least not under RAN jurisdiction...maybe RAN personnel when on exchange to the RN during the war), but I'll need to check some books this afternoon before I give a definite answer. -- saberwyn 22:52, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi everybody. I want to point out that at the moment, there are 49 articles listed at WP:GAN#WAR, 21 of which are within this task force's scope. It would be a great help if anyone who has a spare bit of time to pick one of the articles and review it against the Good Article criteria.

Italian Navy page problems
Ciao to everyone, I'm asking your opinion about the article on the Italian Navy and its talk page. I've got some problems with my last edit (I would like to insert the ranks section like many others pages about world navies) and with a newly user, probably a sock puppet, who registered and reverted my edit declaring his retiring from wikipedia just shortly after. Can you have a look please? Thank you in advance. --Nicola Romani (talk) 06:44, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

GAN backlog elimination drive
The Military History project is currently holding a mini-Good Article Nomination backlog elimination drive. The drive covers only the articles in the War and military section of the WP:Good Article Nominations page and prizes will be awarded for the reviews made. The contest page is at Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Contest/GAN backlog elimination/October 2010 and contains all necessary information on procedures and awards. As a large number of the articles currently in the relevant section at GAN are ship or maritime related, this drive may be of interest to members of the Maritime task force. Please take a look if want to participate. Cheers. AustralianRupert (talk) 11:03, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

WikiProject Boats
FYI, there is a proposal for a WP:BOATS to cover watercraft that are smaller than those bannered by WP:SHIPS. As several watercraft articles have been debannered from WPSHIPS, it seems appropriate that there be a wikiproject to cover these articles. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals/Boats
This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.
If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.
Message sent by User:Addbot to all active wiki projects per request, Comments on the message and bot are welcome here.

HMAS Australia (D84) misidentified in photos?
I've come across some USN photos that claim to be of the County class cruiser HMAS Australia (D84) during a visit to New York in 1932-33. However, during those years, that cruiser did not leave the south-west Pacific. I think the USN has either mis-identified or mis-dated the photos. More detail is at Talk:HMAS_Australia_(D84)#Misidentified_photos.3F, and any help in figuring this out would be appreciated. -- saberwyn 22:44, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
