The original article was taken from here. I have removed most of the content to prevent copyright issues, and changed the rest. JoaoRicardo 14:15, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
The book At All Costs link is the wrong book, there was no page for the right book. The right book was written by Sam Moses. Noha307 20:50, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
I found that the previous versions did not emphasize the importance of this ship for the Maltese nation...i figured more ought to be said on this ship and the role it played in the war. Reuv 20:45, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
This is not ready. It lacks a good description of the career of the ship prior to its final journey. Other material is not in date order and is thereby confusing. There is a also a touch of sentimentality in some of the text which is, after all, just about a ship. Hmains 00:51, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
It appears the previous nominator didn't remove this from the GA page, so I inadvertantly did a second review. My impressions are different in tone (and more detailed than above), but I too would not have passed it immediately (I might have put it on hold, but its too late now). My notes on improving the piece are below.
Best of luck, and a very good job so far, -- Jackyd101 00:07, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
You guys have done a great job improving this aritcle, congrats to all. Noha307 18:52, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
The record as related in the second section doesn't 'add up'. The time (108 hours) and distance (1882 miles) means 17.4 miles per hour, not knots. (?) AMCKen ( talk) 20:03, 16 March 2009 (UTC)AMCKen
I've swapped the 'entering Grand Harbour' and 'discharging' photos because the GH photo is better known, at least on the European side of the 'pond'. It is more dramatic and therfore more likely to get the attention (being above the infobox), of a browsing reader. RASAM ( talk) 22:51, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

There is nowhere called "Dunglass" anywhere on the Clyde.
