Re: Good Article review

 * Note:At the time the GA review commenced, this version of the article was predominant. -- saberwyn 06:55, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

I'm the main contributor to this article, and I don't think its reandy for GA yet, mainly because I'm having trouble finding information for the ship's wartime service. While everything post-war is good, wartime service is a patchy mess I haven't been able to work on yet. -- saberwyn 21:49, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Massive rollback
As I have worked on heavily expanding this article, I have come to the opinion that the main source used by the article (almost critically so) may not be as reliable as I first thought. Weaver's Q Class Destroyers and Frigates of the Royal Australian Navy has shown itself to be inconsistent with other sources, and contains several factual errors, incorrect assumptions, and unsupported opinions.

To this end, I have restored the article to this version, which immediately preceeds my first use of Weaver in this article, and also predates the failed GA review above. I have also reclassified the article as Start class, and modified the Wikiproject tags accordingly. -- saberwyn 06:55, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

MV Kawi
Apparently the Queenborough rescued the survivors of the sinking in October 1962, and again in the following paragraph, on the precise date of 26 October 1963. Neither source is available online, so perhaps it wasn't an emergency operation, being more of an annual thing? --Pete (talk) 18:45, 30 November 2017 (UTC)
