Contents 1 Infobox 2 Guns Recover 3 Mistake 4 More

[edit] Infobox

The information in the infobox is taken from the exhaustive article in Warship International this year. The facts are above questioning. Also, Spain has been using metric since the 19th Century, so in an article about a Spanish warship it's right to use the metric measurements first, which in any case are the official ones used. --Harlsbottom (talk | library)

[edit] Guns Recover

The España's guns, wasn´t recover for ons submarine, they, was recover by Kanguro, one submarines rescue ship (es:Buque de rescate de submarinos Kanguro)

[edit] Mistake

Article says : "In 1920 she joined the celebration of Chile's centennary"

Chile independence was in 1810... ¿Centenary in 1920?

[edit] More

1st says : "In January 1924 she grounded in Chilean waters on the return to Spain, being refloated with some difficulty"

Then says :

"During these operations, she went aground at Cape Tres Forcas, Morocco, near Melilla, in fog on 26 August 1923"

España was lost in 1923... impossible she ground on the return to Spain in 1924. And ¿4 years in Chile?
