Pintado attack

There appears to be some conflicting info. The article states:

On 3 November 1944 she was attacked by the submarine USS Pintado near Makung but her escort destroyer Akikaze deliberately intercepted the torpedoes and sank with no survivors.

But if we look at the USS Pintado article, it says the sub saw an oiler:

A bonus came on 3 November when Pintado’s periscope revealed “the largest enemy ship we have ever seen”, apparently an oiler in the support group for the Japanese carriers. Clarey fired six bow torpedoes at the huge target, but enemy destroyer Akikaze crossed their path before they could reach their target. The destroyer disintegrated in a tremendous explosion which provided an effective smoke screen protecting the original target until the two remaining Japanese escorts forced the submarine to dive and withdraw to escape exploding depth charges.

Naval battle naming convention

I haven't been able to find any reference for this, but capitalizing all words in the name of a naval battle (i.e. "Battle of Midway") vice just the location (i.e. "battle of Midway") seems to be the common practice, and I've modified this article to reflect that. I've also requested help on this at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history/Maritime warfare task force. If anyone knows the right answer on this, please let me know.

According to the response received over there, the "Battle of Midway" version seems to be correct (though I still haven't been pointed to a reference). "The general convention (for all battles) that I've seen used is to capitalize leading nouns; thus, "the Battle of Midway" would be the variant used. Kirill 18:28, 24 July 2007 (UTC)"
