Image of Light Junk?
While i was editing the page and creating a redirect on the 'Light Junk' page, so that it would be redirected here (To fanchuan), some problem occurred in the process. The image of the Light Junk is not to be found. I know i have made some mistake, but i can't figure it out. Can someone help me in this issue? Captainnkid
 * [[Image:[Light_junk_dock.png]]] - maybe you were looking for it with a capital "J" in junk :) -- Adrielle ♥ =) 12:52, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

Hull of Fanchuan?
Anyone knows specific stats of the hull of the ship? In ice discussion thread, an OM pointed out it is "very, very slightly strong than a Dhow", so I assume it is somewhere near the hull of a Longship? 9/6/4 or something like that? --- Yohoo9

Mention "light junk" in the lead?
The explanation of the name change is already in the 'History' section. Do we need to keep the mention of "light junk" in the lead paragraph as well? It was only on Ice, and it might be more confusion than we need. Chupchup 22:42, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't think so and consequently removed it. --Alfwyn 14:41, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

fractions for "max damage"
Do we need these fractions? Can't we round this damage value up? If there is some valid reason to use fractions, especially the very uncommon ones for the fanchuan (other ships using fractional damage just have fractions in halves, not eighths), I'd appreciate knowing why we need them. Thanks in advance! -- Franklincain (t/c) 12:54, 19 August 2013 (PDT)


 * I agree the fractions look horrible. Precise figures are handy in case someone wants to implement a damage counter (e.g. as in Quartermaster), and also yppedia does need to be an encyclopedic work. A table of readable figures for pillagers would be a good idea, as long as it explicitly states somewhere "these figures are rounded up to nearest 0.5" and a link to the full table of results with fractional parts is provided.
 * I suggest keeping the existing values where they are, and making a single article, entitled something like "Simplified ship damage tables" to house the simplified values. Pages showing the existing damage tables/values should link to it. Pillagers might find that helpful. --Therobotdude 16:02, 19 August 2013 (PDT)
