Copyvio?[edit]

A reading of this http://uboat.net/allies/warships/ship/4291.html seems to suggest an unfortunate use of someone elses work. GraemeLeggett 13:05, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, both this page and the one you cite are based on the public domain DANFS. However, the 'pedia article was missing the reference notice. I've now added that. Thanks for asking before marking. Jinian 13:31, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't this article be titled HMS Campbelltown?

Move?[edit]

According to WP:NC-S a ship that changed name or nationality should be placed at the best-known name. Since Campbeltown is probably best known as the ship which led the St. Nazaire Raid, this article should be moved to HMS Campbeltown (I42) (currently a redirct).
