[edit] Second salvage of the stern section

Small balls of decomposed oil were found sporadicly since the wreckage until 2001, when a major find of these balls was confirmed to be from fuel remaining in the double bottom fuel tank of the stern section that was not removed in 1986. This lead to a second salvage operation to remove the fuel during 2001-2002 [1] and the complete the removal of the remainder of the wreck in 2003 due to public out-cry. [2][3][4]

Two references removed in the last edit are official goverment documentation showing: a Spanish MP written request in the Senate and the publication of the approved budget assigned to the salvage work in 2002. Please elaborate how they can be innapropiate references? Perhaps it is not the reference but how they are referenced? Figarema 06:26, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Disambiguation needed?

The ship is actually named after a castle in Salas, Asturias (Spain). Figarema 09:34, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pictures

It would be ideal if pictures could be sourced showing: The ship, the sinking, the trophies. So far all I found is not copyright free (or if it is, it is not a useful picture).–Figarema 09:40, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
