Red Links edit

I have removed all of the red links, but, apparently, this has caused a problem with the records infobox at the bottom of the page. I have no idea of how to fix it, can someone please help? Meanwhile I will return the page as it was before (only the bottom section) and see if that fixes it. --Dogcowsaysmoof | Talk | Sandbox | Barnstar Gallery | Contributions 15:14, 16 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Never mind that, I fixed the infobox. I did not notice that I had missed the }} at the end (I had erased it along with the red links). --Dogcowsaysmoof | Talk | Sandbox | Barnstar Gallery | Contributions 15:17, 16 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Collision with Columbus in 1874 edit

Some sources, particularly Haws' Merchant Fleets, state that the collision between Adriatic and Columbus took place at New York. Contemporary reports from The Times, however, show that the collision took place in Liverpool's Crosby Channel. See The Times (London), 11 March (a news report of the collision a few days earlier) and 27 May (a legal report of the Admiralty Court's ruling on the accident) 1875, both of which state that the collision occurred in the Crosby Channel.Mab819c (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 05:56, 12 November 2011 (UTC).Reply

Replacement propeller edit

A better propeller was retrofitted to improve the performance of Adriatic. I don't have a date for this, but it can be added to the article if a bit more referenced info can be found. ThoughtIdRetired (talk) 09:26, 30 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
