I'm very pleased to say that our long-planned
collaboration with the
National Maritime Museum is now happening.
They have released a lot of info from their internal research on Royal Navy
warships on their website:

(it says CC-BY-NC but the NC bit is a typo and will soon be corrected)
I've set up a project page for this on-wiki, please do have a look and join
in :-)

Fantastic. Has someone notified the WP Ships project? The State
Library of Queensland collaboration resulted in 5000 images of ships
being uploaded to Commons, and a lot of these are UK ships.
