Talk:French battleship Bouvet

message: Hi, I am curious about the official evidence of the time she hit the mine; I only ask this as I found a reference to the incident in the logs of a British Destroyer HMS Grasshopper which say's: 00.15 Proceeded up Dardanelles at full speed to assist rescue of "Bouvet" survivors Which seems odd if she hit the mine around 03.15 LameCat (talk) 15:54, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps part of the confusion is that the article jumps from a 24-hour clock to a 12-hour clock. It should read 15:15. In any event, the sinking was surely not at 00:15 - the picture of the ship capsizing is clearly during the day. Probably an error in Grasshopper's log. Parsecboy (talk) 16:02, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text:  00:15 is during the day.  Naval days started at noon (presumably because that's when sights are taken for a navigation fix).  3:15 is also correct, that would be mid-afternoon on naval time.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:589:300:C7C0:7DE4:DA0:EB7:67E (talk) 22:45, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

Talk:French battleship France

message: The war was not yet declared. Poincaré and the battleship "France" arrived in France the 28th or 29th july 1914. Only Austria had, at  that moment, declared war to Servia. France and Germany were not yet in war. Germany only declared war to Frence the 3th August, if I'm not in mistake. So the "France" could'nt escape the german ships, because there was not war. Please confirm the matter.

Talk:Courbet-class battleship

message: to my knowledge, no french pre-dreadnought had this gun geometry, thus the statement that was abandoned seems a confusion with the german navy. pietro151.29.185.59 (talk) 18:04, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: You are correct that the French never arranged their primary guns that way, but they were very fond of four wing turrets for the secondary armament which amounted to much the same thing.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:34, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: The hexagonal mixed armament was diffuse on the pre-dreadnought: the last US ships had 4/305+8/203, the italian Pisa and San Giorgio 4/254+8/190, the russian Pavel I had 4/305+8/203 (plus other 203 in battery), the russian Rurik II 4/254+8/203, the Radetzky 4/305+8/240 ... But this geometry was never used on the french vessels: the Danton had 12/240 in SIX wing turrets and all the former vessels had more than 4 wing turrets. If you mean that the french engineers reduced the importance of the wing turrets you are perfectly correct (indeed, the reduction is even more important than starting from the hexagonal geometry), but the statement that the previous vessels has the hexagonal geometry is not correct. pietro151.29.185.59 (talk) 10:47, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

message: Why use this American name in an article about a French vessel? Grassynoel (talk) 14:31, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Because French is not a national variety of English, so there is no strong national tie to any version of English. So whoever wrote the article decides what version to use. It's why  uses Canadian English,  uses American English, and the Danish  uses British spellings. Editors should not change the variety without good reason (i.e., unless there are strong ties to one variety or another). Parsecboy (talk) 14:45, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Normandie-class battleship

message: Are you sure that the hybrid steam-turbine/triple-expansion engine thing was really "unusual"? I've heard of that being used on a number of ships, notably the Titanic (in that case, the turbine ran off the exhaust steam from the reciprocating engines, which were the main engines). Perhaps it's unusual for a combat ship, but I don't think it's by any means "unusual" as far as engine layouts in general go. It's simply a way to give good low-speed cruising (where turbines suffer from poor efficiency), while giving you a reserve of power from a high speed turbine for dashes when the rare occasion calls for maximum speed at the cost of high fuel consumption..45Colt 02:07, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
