Map[edit]

Resolved

@Ahwiv: I'm curious why you removed the map. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 01:25, 27 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Another Believer: The Monument template mistakenly identfied map_image as an error, while treating it as a synonym of map_name and I missed that. I fixed the template and restored your image. Thank you for pointing that out.(nicely) Ahwiv (talk) 11:40, 27 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! ---Another Believer _(Talk) 14:21, 27 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed move[edit]

Per the site manager NPS and Smithsonian, I believe this should be titled Seabees Memorial. Other Seabee sources don't use "National" either, though the first just uses "Seabee Memorial" (without the s either). The authorizing legislation never named this a national memorial, though I have found official use of the term to be somewhat inconsistent. Reywas92^Talk 05:24, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Reywas92, There seems to be some inconsistency. I've seen the current page title, Seabee Memorial, Seabees Memorial, Seabee Memorial Monument, etc. I say be bold and move the page to the title you're seeing in the most appropriate secondary coverage. Not sure how many "also known as" names we'd want to include in the lead, though... ---Another Believer _(Talk) 14:36, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Noting move to Seabees Memorial. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:15, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
