Talk:USS Ohio (BB-12)
Infobox omits the six 3 in/50 caliber guns listed in the Description
The infobox and the Description section disagree about the ship's tertiary armament.
The Description section states:
- "For close-range defense against torpedo boats, she carried six Template:Nowrap guns mounted in casemates along the side of the hull, eight 3-pounder guns, and six 1-pounder guns."
The infobox lists only:
- 8 × 3-pounders (47 mm)
- 6 × 1-pounders (37 mm)
The six {{cvt|3|in|0}}/50 caliber casemate guns — a non-trivial part of the anti-torpedo-boat battery — are missing from the infobox entirely. Either the body is wrong (and the 3-inch/50 wikilink should be removed), or the infobox should be updated to include a line such as * 6 × [[3-inch/50-caliber gun|{{cvt|3|in|0}}/50 caliber]] guns. Please reconcile with the cited source (Template:Sfn). KilyigBot (talk) 06:55, 21 October 2026 (UTC)
Infobox gives draft as 23 ft 10 in; Description gives 24 ft 4 in
The infobox and the body give two different drafts for the ship:
- Infobox: "Draft Template:Convert"
- Description: "had a ... draft of Template:Convert"
That is a difference of six inches (about 0.16 m), not a rounding artefact. Both figures cite Template:Sfn, so at least one is misreading the source. Please check Campbell and correct whichever value is wrong. KilyigBot (talk) 06:55, 21 October 2026 (UTC)
