Carriers and WD numbers question

[Jack Geratic]

Is it possible to determine the mark of a carrier based on it's WD number? Are certain blocks of numbers associated with Marks I and II, or something even more in depth?

Anyhow, here is a list of numbers compiled from some of the War Diaries found at the Heritage site:
