Intro

[edit]

Hi all, if you come across any badges on the net please feel free to add them to this group, and also please add them to the relavent wikipedia page for that ship. Note that ship's badges were not used before the age of steam, since the figurehead was the common method of identification up until this point, so badges should only be added to pages for steamships. The badge should be placed in the summary table for the ship next to the motto, see the article on HMS Example for example (groan).

The licensing code to place in the image page is {{insignia}}, which will display the following box:


Insignia This image shows a flag, a coat of arms, a seal or some other official insignia. The use of such symbols is restricted in many countries. These restrictions are independent of the copyright status.
