Talk:German submarine U-105 (1940)

uboat.net
The discussion at Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_75 was rather inconclusive. FuFoFuEd (talk) 12:18, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Also a quick google books search indicates the site is cited with caution by professional historians, especially when it gives accounts that differ from the official record, for example . FuFoFuEd (talk) 12:24, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

Also, I object to "Helgason, Guðmundur" being given as author of all of those pages. As far as I can tell, the individual pages do not have bylines, and the site has several contributors. FuFoFuEd (talk) 12:19, 16 July 2011 (UTC)


 * I don't know. I personally find the proof presented in that discussion quite conclusive.


 * Um, what? The author in the book you cited calls the site "usually reliable" while pointing out that one fact in it differs from the official record. My own Google Books search doesn't seem to agree with yours: hell, I even found this.


 * I will concede that last point to you: I have removed the attributions to Helgason. --cc 09:36, 17 July 2011 (UTC)


 * I've found uboat.net (and ubootwaffe) to be generally good sources, with info tying up with printed sources in a number of cases. Mjroots (talk) 08:21, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

Range?
Having copyedited this article, I noticed that the boat's range differs markedly in the infobox and the text: 8,700nm (infobox), 22,100nm (text) on the surface. 64nm (infobox) and 118nm (text) submerged. As these figures are quite different, I am reluctant to change either.

Does anyone know the correct information?
