Cut and paste move

[edit]

This is called a cut and paste move, and it is forbidden because it breaks the page history and loses the associated talk page. I have reverted it. If you wish to move MV Polarbjørn to HMS Protector (A173), see Wikipedia:Requested moves for guidance on how to do so. Shem (talk) 16:07, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

MV PolarbjørnHMS Protector (A173) –The ship is no longer called Polarbjørn but has been commissioned into the Royal Navy as HMS Protector for at least three years; the article needs to be renamed, with a redirect tofrom MV Polarbjørn until such time as the ship's situation changes Hammersfan (talk) 10:48, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

IMO number

[edit]

I changed the IMO number for Protector, showing a source. The earlier number is stated at the start of the Digital-seas page, but not in the "History of AIS Records" section towards the end. On searching, Digital-seas also show that same IMO number for several other ships. I understood that an IMO number stays with a hull and would not change on the charter to RN.

Pennant number

[edit]

Is there any explanation of why Protector has an "A" pennant number number (normally for auxiliaries), yet is commissioned into the RN rather than RFA, carries fixed (though lightish) armaments and is described as a patrol vessel? Davidships (talk) 20:29, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
