Talk:Battle of Coronel

I have a question to the name of Rear Admiral Crad(d)ock. Which way of writing with one or two 'd' is the right one. I found in this article both. I am just writing a german article about 'Scharnhorst' and 'Battle of Coronel' an i will set a link to 'Christopher Crad(d)ock'. In my sources here is written 'Cradock' with one 'd'. But now I am not sure if the Link will be changed in future when anyone adds some content and knew the right (or wrong) way of writing. Thanks for help.
- Yes, you're right, judging from the number of references from a Google search on "Battle of Coronel" it should be "Cradock" (and I'm surprised how many sites are mirroring this article!). [1] (http://bivouac.com/TripPg.asp?TripId=4796) records "Mount Cradock", British Columbia, as one of the mountains named after the ships and personalities of the battle. -- Arwel 11:44, 1 Feb 2004 (UTC)
