 * ALT1 ... that the Hughes Bolckow Shipwreckers company made antique artifacts out of aged timber from the HMS Britannia?
 * Symbol voting keep.svg Article is newly created and fully cited. It meets the minimum size for DYK, and the hooks for both the original and the alt are directly cited. Personally, I prefer the original as it'll fit in with Women's History Month. But I'll leave it up to the person moving it to prep to decide. No copy vios on online sources, AGF on others. QPQ has been completed. Good to go. Miyagawa (talk) 21:25, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
