I have a list of WWI auxiliaries in the Comprehensive Micronaut Wish List, but I know that it is incomplete. Only the US has good detailed lists of auxiliary types. I would welcome any additional input on the topic of WWI auxiliary ships (and merchant ships as well).
If you want to see what is already listed, the most-recent update of the Comprehensive Micronaut Wish List was on July19, 2014. The WWI Auxiliary list is on page 4 of the thread.
