Japan BC

Hello

I have question - I can`t find such topic for Japan BC. There is no such topic? All articles are at least GA. PMG (talk) 14:01, 6 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think the topic was ever nominated. I'd ask Cam, as he wrote most of the articles. :-) Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 00:32, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Germany is complete

Hey all, thought I should share this with you all: Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/Battleships of Germany/archive1. It's been a long time coming. Parsecboy (talk) 13:32, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats! What's next now that you've finished off most, if not all, of the German ironclads? Cruisers and destroyers? I'm sure that there are some S-boat articles crying out to be written as well!--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 13:47, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I still have the coastal defense ships to do as well. I might take on the bird farms next (which would allow me to create a Capital ships of Germany topic (with the ironclads, BBs, BCs, and CVs for subtopics). Then again, I have the armored cruisers done, so I might move on to the rest of the light and heavy cruisers. I guess we'll see, eh? Parsecboy (talk) 14:14, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
You need to stop writing for a few days and celebrate. Seriously. That's been years in the making. Congratulations. :-) Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 16:16, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

GA review of HMS Vanguard

I'm having difficulties with my reviewer in Talk:HMS Vanguard (23)/GA1 as he wants a detailed explanation as to why she became obsolete and was scrapped in 1960. I believe that a simple statement that she was obsolete suffices and he disagrees. Please weigh in with your opinion so we can put this to be one way or another.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 15:44, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Quick question

When are we activating the rest of the phases? Phase I seems well on its way. WikiCopter 03:37, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

IMO, when the current phase is roughly 90-95% complete. We want the next phase to activate as he last phase is finishing up, so that we can transition from one to another with little to no down time. TomStar81 (Talk) 08:22, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion - British battleships...

Some of you might have spotted that there is a new (and rather useful, in my not-so-unbiased opinion) source of info on British ships over at Wikipedia:GLAM/NMM. Most of the British ships are currently Starts, which suggests that the NMM info will probably have something to add (it tends not to for articles which are well on the way to FA status). Is it worth a few of us systematically updating the British battleships with the NMM's data? (This would also be pretty useful in scoping out what we can do with the rest of the NMM information :-) ) The Land (talk) 08:23, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
