Talk:Spanish Navy

message: Is entirely subjective. However, by no stretch of imagination does the spanish navy rank above the PLAN or Indian Navy, whether in number of capital ships (and thereby strength), number of personnel or total tonnage. A provisional ranking would look like USN>> RuN=RN=MN(Fr) > JMSDF=IN=PLAN. GN, SpN, ROKN and MM(Italy) all come later.
I'm deleting the part about rankings from the article. If someone wants to add something like that please put in some data to back it up instead of personal opinion.

thread_title: Ranking on strength

message: The title should be in English - Spanish navy.--Shtove 20:08, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I did that change because other countries' navies articles do use their autochtonous names such as the Marina Militare. If I was in an error for the change, please revert it to the original name. Cheers, --Maurice27 22:28, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: As far as I know, it should be the English title. Maybe there's a different rule for this type of article. Ask an admin - it it's to be changed back, I think their help is needed anyway.--Shtove 14:46, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:SP Capitan General.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

message: Does the Spanish Navy have a ship-naming system? I'm looking at this & makes me wonder. If anybody can say, an add there might not be a bad idea, either.  TREKphiler hit me ♠  16:27, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: What's in a name?

message: I deleted this:
:"During the Civil War, about half of the Spanish Navy had remained loyal to the Republican government and the other half joined the rebellion of Franco's Nationalists. Government forces had more destroyers (All except one, them Mussolini sold 4 old destroyers to the Nationalist), but Franco had seized both newest heavy cruisers Canarias and Baleares, armed with eight 203 mm (8 in) guns each. The two navies had skirmished throughout the war without major losses."
and this
:"The Battle of the Ebro ended disastrously for the Republicans later that year."
from here, because, while interesting, I don't think it's directly relevant to the subject. Maybe of value here, tho.  TREKphiler hit me ♠  17:31 & 17:49, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Skirmish at WP

message: As Spain is a kingdom, is not their naval forces also a Royal Navy like the UK?♦Drachenfyre♦·Talk 06:39, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Spain is no longer a kingdom - like most Western countries they have some form of democracy, see this page. Also, the 'royal' in Royal Navy does not signify any particular governmental system - it is a holdover from when England had a monarchy. Andyo2000 (talk) 03:16, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: What's that nonsense? Spanish is a kingdom as much as the UK or Japan. Ever heard the term Constitutional Monarchy?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.148.139.221 (talk) 13:02, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

text: Spain is no longer a kingdom? You must be joking, in fact the official name of Spain is Kingdom of Spain.--79.151.207.191 (talk) 17:55, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Royal Navy?

message: The article starts out calling it the Spanish Navy but changes to Armada.  If you do that, proper prose is to write Spanish Navy (Armada), but this is never done.  Nitpicking, some may say but this is an encyclopediaBamler2 (talk) 06:15, 1 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  bad prose 

message: Hi,
The first para under the "Habsburg..." heading contains the sentence "Until the early 17th century, the Pacific Ocean." which seems strangely incomplete.
I wouldn't know what is missing, but perhaps somebody does?

message: Hello. Can anyone help identify this submarine please: Image 1, Image 2, Image 3. I'm trying to find details such as the type, and what navy it belongs to. It was spotted on the Tagus River near Ponte 25 de Abril in Lisbon, Portugal on 3 April 2019. I also have a video of it, but it shows pretty much the same detail visible in the photos. Thanks in advance! Rehman 07:58, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
