 | The content of USS Bignonia (1863) was merged into Balize (tug) on 27 February 2018. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists. For the discussion at that location, see its talk page. |
Merger
[edit]I think the destination article should Balize (tug) , because the USS Bignonia is a lot shorter, and is unlikely to be expanded. Please consider this. User:GreatLakesShips (talk) 22:45, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
Merged articles
[edit]I've merged the article USS Bignonia with this one (left tag on just in case I did it wrong)
Merge with USS Bignonia (1863) ?
[edit]We've got two articles on the same vessel. A merge seems obvious, but what should the destination article be named? Andy Dingley (talk) 18:17, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
- Please discuss this, don't simply remove the merge tag, or else I'm just going to tag it for WP:CSD#A10 Andy Dingley (talk) 21:21, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
Engines?
[edit]For an 1863 vessel, a steeple engine seems more likely than a steeple compound engine. Andy Dingley (talk) 18:17, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
Original naming?
[edit]I suspect this was Mary Grandy, rather than Grandy Mary. Andy Dingley (talk) 18:19, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
You were right, it was Mary Grandy. Thanks for pointing it out. User:GreatLakesShips (talk) 12:8, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
