Article creation, source[edit]

Have just created this article (still a "STUB") based on the Spanish Wikipedia similar article on this class and the thips that formed it. It is my intention to translate and adapt those articles, as well as to provide adequate references and sources. This might take me a couple of weeks. Regards, DPdH (talk) 03:42, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

While I applaud your taking the initiative to create these articles, do be aware that the Spanish articles aren't exactly reliable. I've made a few changes to the Spanish España page but a lack of time has meant I haven't gotten very far with it. All the best. Harlsbottom (talk) 07:35, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed change[edit]

Should we change "The España class was a series of three dreadnought battleships built for the Spanish Navy in 1909–1921" to "The España class was a series of three dreadnought battleships built for the Spanish Navy between 1909–1921"? RetroLord 09:14, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That would be fine, but you'd have to drop the ndash and use "1909 and 1921" instead. Either is fine by me. Parsecboy (talk) 09:49, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Article title[edit]

@Parsecboy: Do you know what the article title is for the Our Navy citation? Kees08 (Talk) 06:29, 29 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It took a bit of digging to find the right edition, but I tracked it down - got the editor's name as well. Parsecboy (talk) 12:00, 29 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
