Alphabetization of Bibliography?

Is there a reason that the bibliography is not alphabetized? KConWiki (talk) 01:02, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Date error?

Is there a way to not have this date error show?

Spindler, Arno (1932, 1933, 1934, 1941/1964, 1966). Der Handelskrieg mit U-Booten. 5 Vols. Berlin: Mittler & Sohn. Vols. 4+5, dealing with 1917+18, are very hard to find: Guildhall Library, London, has them all, also Vol. 1-3 in an English translation: The submarine war against commerce. {{cite book}}: Check date values in: |year= (help); Italic or bold markup not allowed in: |publisher= (help)

Sabine?

Article says "from Sabine to Kirkwall", - which Sabine? see, one of many sources saying the same, at least with a map. Help? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:10, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Unit system order

I suggest we pick a unit system, SI or US, and stick with it. Right now we put the SI units first half the time, and US the other half. SI seems like the right choice to me. Kendall-K1 (talk) 15:07, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Statute miles

Why were all the nmi/km conversions changed to include statute miles? These aren't normally used for distance at sea. Is there a policy that recommends this, or is this just one editor's preference? Kendall-K1 (talk) 11:00, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

Just following the usage guide. How come statute miles are set as default in the convert template, if they aren't normally used, I wonder. ÄDA - DÄP VA (talk) 12:50, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

That guide is for the infobox, not the body. I don't know why statute miles are included by default but I don't think that should have any influence on what units we choose. Kendall-K1 (talk) 12:58, 8 June 2015 (UTC)xxx

It's based on the MOS though, which in turn suggests not to convert nmi after the first occurrence. ÄDA - DÄP VA (talk) 14:31, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
