Inflation[edit]

This article is using the inflation template, which is totally unsuitable for the purpose. Indeed, the template page says this. Can this be fixed? There are websites out there somewhere which provide the necessary info and could be used as a cite. - Sitush (talk) 08:11, 3 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Image[edit]

The picture used is clearly of an earlier, fully-rigged HMS Neptune - while this article is about an early iron-clad battleship with no masts and turrets. I am not sure how to correct it - nor where to find a correct image, but that does need to be done.Wymspen (talk) 12:33, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The picture is correct; read the article more carefully.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 13:01, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
