I've found a blog post which gives her yard number of 677 and details of repairs following the sabotage in 1944. Although not an entirely RS, can we invoke WP:IAR and use the source here? Mjroots (talk)
This blog post gives a date of launch of 6 January 1944. Mjroots (talk) 07:04, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

There seem to be a couple of gaps in coverage, on a quick skim-through:
The construction and first appearance are a bit detatched. I'm presuming she never left Copenhagen in 1944 before being sabotaged; did anything happen - beyond sitting at a dock being worked on - between then and May 1945? She did manage to get to Lubeck, at least, but it's not clear if there was ever a "real" voyage with cargo.
Apparently the ship was refloated and towed to Lübeck where repairs were carried out by Lübecker Flenderwerke (1st blog source above). Mjroots (talk)
What was she? We note she was "rebuilt as a training ship and hospital ship", but it's not clear what she was originally built as or used as - a freighter, I assume, but it's not said anywhere. Likewise, what did she do in the Soviet navy?
Built as a cargo ship - this in in the infobox. I believe she was a Soviet merchant ship rather than serving in the Soviet Navy (will tweak article to make it clearer that she was built as a cargo ship). Mjroots (talk)
Finally, what happened to her? The lead says she's still at Gdynia as a barge; the article says an accomodation hulk at an unspecified port. Shimgray | talk | 12:30, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
Served as an accommodation barge named BK-5, scrapped at Aliaga, Spain in June 1990 (3rd blog source above).Mjroots (talk)
Hopefully that will answer your questions. Mjroots (talk) 04:07, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
Maybe it will look better once the questions I posed above re the blog source get answered. Mjroots (talk) 12:34, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

I wish the article had more content, but I guess there is not much out there. I am still uneasy as far as the b2 ("Coverage and accuracy") and b5 ("Supporting materials") criteria go, but I guess for a B-class, this can be seen as satisfactory. For a GA, more content would have to be added. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 18:23, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
