Unsourced issues

There appear to be unsourced bits at the bottoms of both subsections. Perhaps inline-cites could be added for this info? Cirt (talk) 15:40, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up. I added a cite for the start of the conservation since that is slightly specific. The bit about the Vasa Museum and the current state of the Mary Rose Musuem, though, seem awfully basic to require specific citations. Both are so intrinsic and basic to their respective topics that they can't really be considered controversial or challangeable. I know this type of explanation is at times frowned upon, but this is something that is so ridiculously easy to check up that a citation seems more like a formality than a necessity.
Btw, I noticed that you introduced citation code for the detailed refs. I'm personally very negative to the use of templates in general, and most of all citation templates unless there are really major benefits for readers. In my view, any type of specific code should be avoided at all cost since it adds to the already steep learning curve of newbies and makes editing more difficult for those who aren't comfortable with code in the first place. Since reference formatting is extremely easy to keep consistent in the same article, I just don't see little or benefit with citation templates, especially for references to print works. I hope you don't mind my removing it.
