Spelling of name[edit]

Does anyone realise that the word for the Japanese warrior nobles is spelt Samurai? Or is it named after something else?--Jeff79 22:40, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Named after something completely different. -- saberwyn 20:19, 27 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Restoring image request[edit]

I am restoring the image request tag, because I think that an image of this ship, not a sister vessel, is still required for the article. -- saberwyn 09:52, 17 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
