Talk:HMS Valiant (1914)

Repairs
This article claims repairs after a frogman attack were made in South Africa, the article on "Human Torpedos" claims the repairs were made in Norfolk, VA --- this is not congruous and needs to be corrected.


 * You seem to have misread the Human Torpedo article. It states that HMS Queen Elizabeth was sent to Norfolk for repairs, which it was and doesn't specify where Valiant was repaired.  --Harlsbottom 11:19, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

Prince Philip
Is it interesting to note that the then Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark, later Prince Philip the Duke of Endinburgh served onboard HMS Valiant as a midshipsman? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.230.46.130 (talk) 00:50, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Unclear references
It is unclear what books are meant by the references to: Gusfriend (talk) 06:46, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) Sutherland
 * 2) Beevor (probably Antony Beevor but book unclear)
 * 3) Jones
 * I've found sources for the requisite books, which seem to match up perfectly (although "Jones" is really Tucker-Jones)! They have been added to the article. DeemDeem52 (talk) 20:09, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

B class review notes
For B class, the following updates need to be made. Other edits may be needed, but these two are required. Djmaschek (talk) 00:53, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
 * The last sentence of Modifications is uncited.
 * When a ship's name is written, it needs to be in italics. There are several places in the article where the ship names are not in italics. Djmaschek (talk) 00:53, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Here are additional comments. Djmaschek (talk) 01:05, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Including the ship's WWI career after Jutland would be nice.
 * Its service at Jutland after the "run to the north" is omitted.
 * Did the ship receive any modifications in the 1930s?
 * I read that Prince Phillip served as a spotter on Valiant at Matapan. That should be included if a source can be found.


 * The lede needs to cover the ship's interwar and WWII in more detail. Remember that the lede is a summary of information in the main body of the article.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 20:05, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
