No British WWI sailors buried on the island

[edit]

I am deleting the mention of British sailors being buried on the island in the present tense. The Commonwealth War Graves Commission record no British Royal or Merchant Navy sailors being buried on the island, but there is a hint on their website that any buried on the island MAY have been reburied in the Commonwealth War Graves plot at Kviberg Cemetery in Gothenburg, as happened those buried in all but three other remote burial grounds in Sweden. However the website does not explicitly indicate if any of those now buried at Kviberg were removed from Stensholmem, and there is no mention of there having been British graves on the German war graves website used in citation.Cloptonson (talk) 08:53, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
