Sources for Chainplate
Hello, good work on Chainplate, and thanks for the contribution. However, you forgot to add any references to the article. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and there is currently a push to encourage editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. What websites, books, or other places did you learn the information that you added to Chainplate? Would it be possible for you to mention them in the article? Thank you very much. - SimonP 04:42, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

Re: Sources for Chainplate
Since I'm a sailor, I didn't use any external resources, just my personal knowledge. I suspect however that it is pretty accurate.

Proposed deletion of Seawater corrosion


The article Seawater corrosion has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * The article has no sources and has been tagged for 3 years. There is no particular process as 'seawater corrosion', it's the same process as 'ordinary' corrosion. The subject is already covered in Corrosion,Galvanic corrosion and to a lesser extent, Cathodic protection

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Apau98 (talk) 08:37, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
