WSC - Unfortunately I can't make the meetup. Happy to answer questions etc either over email or on-wiki. Deryck - yes, it would be bizarre if Wikipedia told the National Maritime Museum their work wasn't up to our standards. However, because it's unusual to get information of this nature and in this format, I'm keen to establish a consensus at the outset rather than risk an argument about it later. Chris

We have a London meetup in a fortnight, is it possible we could discuss this there?

Brilliant news - not only does it tell us about the ships but also about the many notable brits on the ships
Well done in anticipation

It looks very likely that the National Maritime Museum are going to release a significant amount if information gleaned from their archives under CC-BY-SA so we can make use of it. This would include information on the service history of some 20,000-odd Royal Navy warships. More information on-wiki here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/NMM Regards, Chris (The Land)
