(merge proposed in March 2011; no rationale given. Closed by Xyl 54 (talk) 23:10, 2 November 2012 (UTC))

• This article is about a Naval unit, so can be left seperate from the "sinking" article Hugo999 (talk) 10:56, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

• I disagree with the merge - Hugo999 is right in my view.

The sinking is important and deserves its own article. This was the first loss of British capital ships to air attack alone, and with the events at Pearl Harbour must mark the end of the battleship era (see 'The Hunting of Force Z' ref added to article)

The sendig of Force Z was a political/strategic response to the developing situation in the Far East and includes much of note besides the eventual fate of the ships. This article should therefore stay; I hope a military historian might expand it (I'm an engineer, and more into the hardware!)John M Brear (talk) 10:44, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

• There's been no support for this merge proposal, so I'm closing it. In fact, as there was no explanation given or rationale offered here in the first place, I don't even see why we should be discussing it. Xyl 54 (talk) 23:05, 2 November 2012 (UTC)

Where is the word consort?

Since is it forcefully kept in HMS Repulse (1916)? Where?
