Name Issue[edit]

Should this article be named "HM submarine Swordfish"? - Canglesea (talk) 06:49, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

We backdate prefixes so HMS Swordfish is correct with our conventions. I'm also dubious about the 'never commissioned' aspect, as she appears on navy lists. Benea (talk) 15:15, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
