Protection
Does this need protecting again? The amount of random IP vandalism and disruption is bizarrely high on this article. Canterbury Tail talk 17:11, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
I don't know. Rosejoyleader (talk) 22:17, 19 September 2021 (UTC)
Unsourced caption
The caption of the first figure in Sinking_of_the_Titanic#Grief_and_outrage reads "According to an eyewitness report, there "were many pathetic scenes"..." but is unsourced. The description of the image doesn't mention that. Is there a source for the caption, or is it WP:OR? --Happyseeu (talk) 05:58, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

Time offset
I get that there would be a 3-hour difference between GMT and the local time where the sinking occurred, but why the 2-minute offset? ManlyMatt (talk) 18:11, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
- It’s explained in the note below it in the infobox. Basically ships time was incorrect. Canterbury Tail talk 18:31, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
20kts into an ice field?
What were they thinking going that fast. My understanding is that that was brought up later. Deserves mention in the lede.
The cargo ship California was near by and had stopped for the night rather than risk it. It was critized for not helping the Titanic. Also deserves mention. Tuntable (talk) 09:06, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
