I suspect that, if we end up in the situation where we've improved a given article as
much as possible given the extra information they're providing (and particularly if we
go a step further than this and incorporate sources that they haven't encountered or
haven't managed to utilise), and if a picture of the ship is an obvious gap in the
coverage of a particular ship, then they will be amenable to this possibility. Given that
they're making all of this information freely available to us under our preferred
license, then we really need to prove that we can use it (and share it) as effectively as
possible before they give us more content...
Thanks,
Mike

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 :-)

Good. Any chance of them letting us take some pics of their ship models?
