Orphaned references in HMS Gloucester (D96)

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of HMS Gloucester (D96)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "NavyNews":

From Carrier Strike Group Two: "George Bush bound for Portsmouth after war games with Royal Navy". News. 24 May 2011. Retrieved 2011-05-24.
From HMS Cardiff (D108): "Navy News — The Falklands Conflict — Fact Card — HMS Cardiff". Navy News. Retrieved 10 February 2008. ^{[dead link‍]}

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 22:18, 3 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
