How are the first two paragraphs of the section relevant to this article? They are the subject of other, linked, articles. We should not need to cover all the geography and history of the river and canal in this article - only the story behind the hulks themselves. That is why we have links. Ghmyrtle ( talk) 07:58, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
The interesting aside on shipbuilding methods is too long for a table cell. Belongs in a subsection or a footnote to the table. Wire723 ( talk) 08:51, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
Andy Dingley ( talk) 20:18, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
It's just brilliant that this fascinating topic now has its own article! Well done, people. Best wishes 82.36.105.25 ( talk) 22:15, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
Can the captions for the images of the individual hulks give the names of the ships shown? Ghmyrtle ( talk) 08:16, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
Are the following "Purton hulks" for our purposes here?
Andy Dingley ( talk) 10:09, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
At the moment the article has both "-ize" and "-ise" spellings and is voting 2-1 in favour of "-ise". I'm personally very fond of "-ize" in BrE spellings (isn't this EngVarB or Oxford or something??) but it's probably more important that we make it consistent one way or the other and tag it as whatever we have chosen. But what do you think? Cheers 82.36.105.25 ( talk) 09:47, 12 June 2016 (UTC)
I've tried, and failed, to determine the coordinates of the individual vessels. If anyone can do so, please enter them in the column I added. I also included some example code. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 19:35, 12 June 2016 (UTC)
