Malcom/Malcolm

[edit]

HMS Malcom is a red link. Is it a typo for HMS Malcolm (D19), which did North Atlantic convoy duties? -- John of Reading (talk) 15:00, 28 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. Fixed. - Sitush (talk) 13:38, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Article title

[edit]

I think he was pretty much always referred to as Howard-Johnston and this article should be renamed to reflect that. - Sitush (talk) 13:38, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing

[edit]

The original Who's Who in the Navy source has many factual differences from what is said in H-J's obituary in The Times. I've added some bits from the obituary but I really cannot resolve the numerous problems that remain without access to the Who's Who source - practically every statement seems to need qualification in some form or another. If anyone can see the Who's Who, I can forward them a copy of the obituary with which to compare it. - Sitush (talk) 15:05, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
