RN news article

So if someone's suprised by the arrival of a French aircraft carrier they kidnap British sailors? I'm not sure that's logical. There COULD be a link, but until it's directly suggested by a credible news source it is original research and so should not be included. Cueball 17:56, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Graphic in UK sailor abduction

Sorry if I was incorrect in how I labelled the picture. Its position in the article made it look as if it was for the prior incident we give background on. Since you know more on this than me (as the graphic creator) go ahead and clarify the caption and perhaps reposition the picture in the article.

Sorry for the mistake! As I say, it was down to where the graphic was placed in the article. Perhaps swap it with one of the earlier photos so it is attached to a more relevant paragraph. --Brian McNeil / ^talk 20:37, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Right ok for this, if this is what the image was based on at this time then this is fine. Thanks for the reply. --MarkTalk 21:20, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
