Hello, Antiochus the Great. You have new messages at Shem1805's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Please don't insert "HMS" into lists of ships - it is contrary to policy, and completely unnecessary. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Ships/Guidelines, particularly "Later references to the same ship in the article should just use the ship's name, still in italics". There is a reason the lists don't have prefixes in. The guidelines used to be quite explicit in this respect - "You may give the ship's prefix the first time you introduce the ship, but you should not repeat it on future mentions. You need not give the prefix at all if it is obvious from the context (for example, in a list of ships of the Royal Navy there is no need to repeat "HMS" each time)." 2.101.37.166 (talk) 16:43, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent, thanks for pointing that out. I removed the prefix from the Trafalgar-class article - but I noticed you and another editor (Shem1805) have already done so on other articles. I know now for future!Antiochus the Great (talk) 16:52, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, than edit the Turkish version of the Turkish Air Force page as well. Because there it says 2040 aircraft 2012/2013 It is one or the other it can't be both. So figure that out please.

Do not edit English Wikipedia without a citation. I have no interest in Turkish language Wikipedia.Antiochus the Great (talk) 19:11, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, ok you were right after all. I have looked it up from official sources. Thanks for your contribution. I am going to change the Turkish page as well. I will be more careful in the future. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mogumogu40 (talk • contribs) 19:07, 25 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Future of the Royal Navy may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

Hey Recon.army Woe90i Obscure Reality ATG, where did you get the hull number of Arihant(S73)? Thanks, ƬheStrikeΣagle ^sorties 15:59, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I got the pennant number (INS Arihant (S-73)) from bharat-rakshak and several online news and media sites. bharat-rakshak.com is used on many Indian ship articles, do you feel it is accurate? Also the INS Arihant article uses the pennant number (S-73) too... some sources indicate that INS Vikramaditya will have the (R23) pennant, but they don't appear to be good references.Antiochus the Great (talk) 16:22, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The rest of the Arihant-class should follow pennants S-74, S-75 etc but cannot find references for it.Antiochus the Great (talk) 16:27, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

yes, I'm not sure about the reliability of Bharat Rakshak, never used it. S-73 could be true but where's S-72? :o) Vikramaditya is right IMO but let's wait till it's official. Thanks, ƬheStrikeΣagle ^sorties 16:33, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
