replies: text: Thanks, WCM. I've responded at the AfD. Btw, I removed the prod since the tagger expressed an interest in having discussions, which a prod isn't designed for. I do think there is a need for greater detail on the fringe theory in a dedicated article, as it's a perennial issue in this article. BilCat (talk) 19:46, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

text: The text and sources on the failed attack, its being thwarted and the Junta's misinformation campaign.  Some of the Argentine pilots apparenty believe they succeeded  we know they are wrong.  IMO, this is better than what was in the HMS Invincible.  And ignoring the claims will not make them go away.  7&6=thirteen (☎) 13:52, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: The Junta's misinformation campaign isn't currently sourced in the article to be merged, it needs one before you could merge it.  The pictures of Invincible in flames were published on May 1, so it's not relevant to May 30.  The problem being most of the conspiracy theories are on blogs, self-published books and personal websites, which are sources we cannot use. The text and sources on the failed attack were lifted from here in the first place, so there is nothing to add. And if we're going back to personal attacks, this really is unhelpful.  The issue is entirely one of reliable sources and ignoring that will not be helpful. WCMemail 14:17, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge discussion 

message: In 1990, when I was 8 years old, my primary school class had school trip in which we went aboard The HMS Invincible, it was temporarily in the Thames in London for a short time. Maybe at Greenwich, but I can't remember. I do remember being told it was difficult to get it up the Thames to where it was displayed.
I have looked online, and I can only find a little on it. I have found these pages online about the ship visiting London in 1990. It's not the most significant thing the ship has been involved with, but it may be worth a small mention in the article.
