Re my edits

Sturmvogel 66, re your asking not to remove links. I agree. However, and please correct me if I am wrong, I have noticed that throughout the page once a ship is first mentioned and linked (to another Wiki page), then when that ship is mentioned again on same page it is not linked, just italicised. So I was just following the formatting I had seen in the article, as in the instance seemingly in question Inazuma had already been linked. KevinVD (talk) 20:24, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

You are quite correct. My apologies, I overlooked the first link for the destroyer.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 21:27, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

No 20mm on bridge sides / 'wing's

In the 'Description' section on main page it states "Encounter probably also had a pair of QF 20 mm Oerlikon cannons added on the sides of the bridge."

This is incorrect. Video survey evidence of the wreck shows no 20mm on bridge side / wings.

Suggest removing that assumptive statement.

Done.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 12:22, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
