Talk:MV Derbyshire

message: The Derbyshire was lost with all hands; yet the article talks about the "remaining crew" being charged with negligence. This needs to be explained - was it the late crewmembers that were charged with negligence, or crewmembers who did not sail (and if so why)? Lupine Proletariat 09:42, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

message: Help! Why has someone 'blanked' the page on the vessel 'Derbyshire'? I just visited this page at 02.08 on 11th November 2013 to find, incredibly, that "This page was last modified on 11 November 2013 at 02:02."! What is going on here? If someone is doing 'work in progress' why take down the page?
I'm hoping it is OK to 'restore' it to the previous page - I cannot see any 'in use' tag? I am not otherwise editing the page, just viewing it. --Girly Brains (talk) 03:04, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: People do this sort of thing from time to time because they can. It's a weakness of a open project that comes with all the good stuff. Best to just restore the article and move on. Britmax (talk) 10:13, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi GB.  You can simply undo the edit ..but in the case of multiple edits by the same user you may want to rollback or restore to an earlier time.  The page blanker also9 changed the date to 9th September which looks a good faith edit ..but it wasn't clear to me if there was any certainty it sank on that day or a day or so later so I left it.

message: Can someone explain why this article uses the USA date format and NOT that used by the United Kingdom. The USA format places the month before the day and this is followed by the year - whereas in the UK they use Day, Month, Year. So can someone explain and rectify please.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.2.108.129 (talk) 17:12, 24 September 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I doubt that anyone can actually explain it, no. It's been like that for about ten years, perhaps more. Maybe it was initially edited by someone who preferred that format? We may never know. Anyway, I think you are right and it should be shifted to the UK-ish standard-ish format, so I did. I hope you like it. Best wishes DBaK (talk) 19:56, 24 September 2015 (UTC)

message: Given that the rogue wave hypothesis was published by an investigative board, I have added their conclusions (copied from Rogue wave) by appending them to the end of the "History" section of MV Derbyshire , with a subsection header "Further investigation". Not being an expert in this field, I did not venture to resolve the two competing hypotheses (low bow vs rogue wave), but rather included them both, which may create confusion, as I simply pasted in the entirety of the Derbyshire rogue wave material. 
It would benefit the article to have another user with some expertise resolve this inconsistency by looking over my addition and trying to more clearly state (probably by consulting sources) the current (2022) opinion on the sequence of events and primary causes. Thanks.--Quisqualis (talk) 14:43, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
