T51 torpedoing

[edit]

According to Halpern's A Naval History of World War I (page 150), T51 was torpedoed and had its bow blown off by the French submarine Papin on 9 September 1915, while the former was patrolling off Palagruža. T51 was towed back to port (and presumably repaired, but I have no details on that). That probably warrants a mention in the article, and there's a photo available of the boat shortly after the attack. Parsecboy (talk) 17:43, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Caiman

[edit]

I assume that Kaiman is German for caiman, but it would be nice if the article could say so. Srnec (talk) 02:07, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Any ideas on a source for that? Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 05:23, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I can see a featured star on the top right on my end. Seems like either it wasn't added yet when you saw the article or it didn't load for you. MrQueeba (talk) 16:07, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
How can be "featured" if has inconsistency related to propulsion system? Infobox mentions turbine, body mentions triple expansion. Please resolve this, or reassess. Thanks and regards, DPdH (talk) 21:00, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Good point, not sure how that got through. They were TE. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 07:41, 6 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
