Brazilian coastal defense ship Floriano → Floriano – proper name of ship Yoninah (talk) 01:49, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:14, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Yoninah: Floriano is a disambig page. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:14, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
So make the page name Floriano (ship) or something similar.
Support. The name of the ship is Floriano. It doesn't make sense to add the description before the title. Yoninah (talk) 13:18, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
But Floriano is a disambig page and means other things also. Is the ship the dominant meaning? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 14:54, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes. It's the ship's name. Yoninah (talk) 15:16, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Rename the article to whatever you want, but it is not the primary topic for the term "Floriano". —Xezbeth (talk) 12:41, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, please. My main objection to the page name is the overlong "Brazilian coastal defense ship" in front of the name. You can rename it Floriano (ship), Marshal Floriano, or whatever you want. Yoninah (talk) 14:52, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
