I'll start this in the next couple of days. auntieruth (talk) 15:04, 12 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

made a few minor tweaks toward the end, fixed a couple of verbs; not sure article should have convert template in it. Are these nautical miles?

Sorry, missed this comment. Yes, UK nautical miles which are slightly longer than international nautical miles but not sufficiently so as to make a difference.--Ykraps (talk) 06:32, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have an image of a similar ship for the info box? Infobox looks strange ....auntieruth (talk) 15:04, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Images of Royal Oak-class ships are rare. There's this one File:HMS Vengeance (1774).jpg or this File:George III reviewing the Fleet at Spithead 22 June 1773.jpg. Any preference?--Ykraps (talk) 05:20, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think the first (Vengeance), cropped and labeled as an example of the ships. ?? Also, possibly use the ^{[convert: needs a number]} template nmi|km|lk=on auntieruth (talk) 14:53, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've added to the article and made a request to have it cropped at Wikipedia:Graphics_Lab/Photography_workshop#HMS_Sultan_GAN.--Ykraps (talk) 06:32, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've also added the conversion template for nmi. I think I've gotthem all but let me know if I've missed any.--Ykraps (talk) 06:49, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nice job. auntieruth (talk) 14:22, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
