New enough redirect conversion and long enough. No QPQ necessary; fewer than 5 credits. Must AGF on offline source. Several inline citations are needed: to end the first two paragraphs of "Background", on the flying bridge, and on the fates of the other vessels. @Merbabu: Rectify the citation issues and ping me when done.

@Sammi Brie: - Hi Sammie, I've addressed the inline citations you mentioned, and fixed up a few other things. [1] By the way, what do you mean by "No QPQ necessary; fewer than 5 credits"? (it's my first attempt at a DYK) thanks, --Merbabu (talk) 08:11, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You're good to go. That line means that you do not need to review another page as a condition of nomination because fewer than five pages of yours have appeared on the Main Page. One suggestion for general improvement to you, since I see this has a lot of references to the same books: learn how to use {{sfn}}. One of my longer pages, WBPX-TV, uses it for a book source.
