[edit] Chronicon scotorum

What's up with chronicon scotorum? You blanked it, do you want it deleted? Kappa 23:04, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

Yes. The title should have a capital 'S' at the beginning of 'scotorum' but I do not know how to edit titles. Edit only seems to allow changes within the body of an article. Without the capital 'S' other articles cannot link to this one. This problem really began with the article entitled 'Chronicum Scotorum' which is a mis-title as 'Chronicum' should read 'Chronicon'.Oz MH 02:38, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks, Kappa. Much appreciated and have a nice Christmas.Oz MH 12:37, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Sinking of RMS Leinster

I'm afraid my view is somewhat anticlimactic. I gather you're referring to the edit I made at Unterseeboot 123 (diff), in which I claimed it has sunk the RMS Leinster. I added this having read the RMS Leinster article, whose first paragraph - not written by myself - contains: "Having departed the Dublin ferry port at Kingstown (now re-named Dun Laoghaire) she was sunk by the German U-Boat U-123 just outside Dublin Bay at a point four miles east of the Kish light." Other than this chance reading, however, I know nothing of the subject. If you believe my edit to be in any way wrong, feel to revert or modify. I know this isn't very helpful, but I really have no further special knowledge. (I could Google for information if you wish for my assistance, but you seem to be more interested in this.) — Itai (talk) 20:06, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Hi , Itai, I was wondering if maybe you could tell me the source of your information regarding the running aground of the U-123 in 1921 because (if my sources are correct) the U-123 never returned to her home base in 1918 and was never seen again. The other point I would like clarified concerns the designation U-123 as opposed to UB-123. Are these two different submarines and could this be the origin of the current confusion?Oz MH 17:02, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Clarification (courtesy of Roy Stokes) , UB-123 sank the Leinster, not the U-123 ClemMcGann 17:17, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
Your article on the Leinster follows the 'official line'. At some stage I might alter the tone a little. By that I mean questions such as:'who broadcast the sos', 'why was an escort not provide', 'why was it painted', why was the Evening Herald closed, 'soldiers & lifeboats', 'RN in Dun Laoghaire stayed in port'; but not yet, I'm a bit short of the time required, regards ClemMcGann 17:33, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
