Redlinks are not required to be fixed, but if you don't mind fixing them that would be great!

I think they are all notable (i.e. ships), so a redlink is a useful reminder of that. Thanks, Mat ty.007 15:36, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Also, could the following quote be put into a quote box, like the one in Ernest Radcliffe Bond?

I vaguely remember being hauled out of the water, but must have passed out, and when I came to, I was lying on the deck in the German destroyer's wardroom. I remember seeing a picture of Hitler on the wall facing me." (You forgot to put a period at the end of the quote, which I did for you.)

Thank you, moved to box. Thanks, Mat ty.007 15:36, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That's all I got to say ;) Brandon (MrWooHoo) • Talk to Brandon! 15:27, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

MrWooHoo: replied to both. Thanks again for the review, Mat ty.007 15:36, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
