6 inch guns Almirante Latorre ( HMS Canada)

[edit]

Under general characteristics the article says twelve 6 inch guns. The included diagram and one other site says that the actual count is sixteen. The count on actual pictures also seems to be 16.

Nice catch—thanks very much! Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 21:30, 12 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Article needs design background

[edit]

Nothing so far on the design. Looks like the Iron Duke class but a full discussion would be good. Rcbutcher (talk) 10:30, 11 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Ain92: Can you expand on your rationale for adding File:The Royal Navy on the Home Front, 1914-1918 Q18972.jpg to this article? I couldn't access either of the URLs you put in this edit summary, and beyond that I'm not sure the image is relevant enough to this article's subject. The rifles tell us very little about the ship, the people never crewed this battleship, and you can barely see the rifles in any case. Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 22:37, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
