WWII service
I added a note in the table against the boats that were in service in WWII, according to the text. This was reverted, with the edit summary “sold two yrs after the war doesn’t qualify as service”. So were these boats not in service during the war after all? The statement has a source; is it wrong? Xyl 54 (talk) 01:52, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
 * ♠It's not the service, it's the nature of it. As I was seeing it, the edit was saying the service amounted to being sold. The one case, being torpedoed, I probably should have fixed, but... As for the others?
 * ♠Let me suggest changing the presentation to add a column for "WW2 service", & one for "fate".  TREK philer   any time you're ready, Uhura  02:15, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Fair point; I could have worded it better. A separate WWII column would do the trick, but most of these boats didn't see action then, so it would mostly be a column of N/A's. What about "In service during WWII. Sold/Destroyed/Torpedoed..." etc in the existing Disposition column? Xyl 54 (talk) 21:57, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm thinking, do what Lenton does & have a "Fate" column. That covers torpedoed & sunk, sold for scrapping, whatever. It also leaves open the option of "WW2 service" or "War service" if more can be found.  TREK philer   any time you're ready, Uhura  10:11, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
 * OK, I'll try that and see how it looks...Xyl 54 (talk) 21:37, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
 * ...what do you think? Xyl 54 (talk) 21:43, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
 * That looks good. What do you think about "expended as target" rather than "destroyed"? And "scrapped" rather than "destroyed"? (I presume scrapping).  TREK philer   any time you're ready, Uhura  08:59, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
 * “Expended” is fine (I’ve put them in): As for “destroyed”, I’m guessing that’s PE-19: I don’t know what happened to her, the DANFS page just says destroyed (I’ve linked that, too) Xyl 54 (talk) 02:55, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I can live with "destroyed". :) Thx.  TREK philer   any time you're ready, Uhura  03:01, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
