 * Since the US Navy was the largest at the time during WWII, shouldn't there be more on the subject? Wikicopter what i do s + c cup&#124;former 03:12, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I would agree their should be more detail but not much, as that's the whole reason for splitting the article up into daughter articles. Thurgate (talk) 20:31, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I attempted to write about the highlights here - it may need an expansion or another further info link or two. Kirk (talk) 20:36, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
 * The Great White Fleet also had to take most of their coal from Brit colliers, which showed that the USN had to develop a logistical chain to support its big ships. Should not that be mentioned, as logistics are also very important. Wikicopter what i do s + c cup&#124;former 02:04, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Interestingly, the main article doesn't mention that fact; I'll see if I can add that sentence with a citation. I don't think I substantially rewrote that section and now that I think about it I'm not satisfied with that title - 1898-1914 should cover the Naval arms race and Battleship developments.  I'll ping you when its ready. Kirk (talk) 14:51, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok I expanded and renamed this section. I didn't see the logistical question you raised answered in Miller or Howarth but that seems important, I'll keep looking. Kirk (talk) 20:15, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok this is done. Kirk (talk) 20:09, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
 * GJ.
 * In such a large article there are bound to be a few dablinks:
 * Derna in section United States Navy (1794–1812).
 * Battle of Mobile in section American Civil War (1861–1865)
 * Columbia in section Rise of the Modern Navy (1898-1914)
 * Commitment in section Post-Cold War from 1991
 * Rename Post-Cold War from 1991 to Post-Cold War (1991-present) or similar.
 * You could cut the info about the Alabama, as there are some things that could be better used in this article. FAC Wikicopter what i do s + c cup&#124;former 02:42, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I've seen the date stuff done both ways but I changed the heading, the dab links you mentioned, and cut the Alabama. Kirk (talk) 14:45, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Rename section ((!xt|United States Navy (1794–1812)}} Quasi-War (1794–1812) or something related to it, as the entire article article is about the USN. FAC Wikicopter what i do s + c cup&#124;former 02:03, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I went with Establishment of the United States Navy; I considered Birth of the United States Navy - is that ok?Kirk (talk) 16:31, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Tis a little long on the TOC, go with Establishment of the Navy.
 * Beyond that, there is little less to say. The citations are a little loose if you want to go beyond GA, you mainly use Miller. I'll pass this, and you can change the section header at your leisure. FAC Wikicopter what i do s + c cup&#124;former 04:06, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
