name issue[edit]

I noticed that List of U-boats#U-201 to U-300 has an entry for this boat but it's a redlink as it's expecting to link to German submarine U-241, i.e. without the date. It's easily fixed by editing that page or a redirect (preferable), but I wonder if moving the article might be even better so it's name matches that of similar boats?--JohnBlackburne^words_deeds 18:27, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've just created the link as a redirect. It should be fine as I have sen several other U-boats with the same date in their title.--Coldplay Expért ^{Let's talk} 23:30, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
