Fuze Keeping Clock

[edit]

Fuze Keeping Clock is the correct terminology: See page 153 [1]. There are numerous other sources for this. Fuze Keeping Clock is never hyphenated. Please revert this change.Damwiki1 (talk) 21:43, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The only time Fuze Keeping Clock is hyphenated is when modern editors add the hyphen. Original Admiralty Documents and most authors do not hyphenate. This is a digital copy of the Gunnery Pocket Book illustration for the FKC Mk II:[2]. As it is a photo there is no chance that it has been altered and you'll note that there's no hyphen. A review of Admiralty Fleet Orders from 1942-45 show that FKC is not hyphenated in original admiralty documents.Damwiki1 (talk) 00:13, 23 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I'll revert the change on Monday if no reply.Damwiki1 (talk) 18:04, 24 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Tell ya what I'll do, I'll open a discussion on the project talkpage if we want to adhere to the Admiralty's stylistic choice or proper grammar.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 18:09, 24 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
