MM prefix[edit]

Is "MM" really a valid prefix? Nearly all of the Google-found refs are to copies of this article, which makes me dubious. We ought to have some kind of authority for using it somewhere. Stan 05:09, 7 Sep 2004 (UTC)

C Prefix[edit]

The Italian Navy never used the C prefix for the pennant number, see the official website http://www.marina.difesa.it/unita/portaerei.htm. In the photographs of the ship (example Image:960119-N-7729M-004_screen.jpg) you see only "551". For other units, when the prefix is used, example the De la Penne class destroyers [1] the letter is always painted: [2] --Il palazzo 14:48, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Is this the worlds smallest aircraft carrier? Or is it the one the thailand navy operates? Wikipedia should be precise when it comes to contradictions like this.-Ravage. 03.04.07

GG: it or she?[edit]

The article seems undecided about genderization? Ekem (talk) 02:04, 14 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ban on aircraft carries[edit]

The article states: "The ban was eventually lifted and in 1989". The treaties should be linked and expanded on, perhaps not here but that place should be linked. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 05:17, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Combat/Operational History[edit]

CVS?[edit]

@BilCat: - please see Talk:Italian_aircraft_carrier_Cavour_(550)#CVH.3F, as it basically covers this issue as well. But on a side note, were these reverts really necessary? It's not as if this is vandalism or some other urgent matter. You could have simply just asked me about it. And, further to that... why would you need me to explain this to you? You seem like a fairly knowledgeable 'navy guy'. Surly you don't need me to tell you that CVS is obsolete and CVH doesn't exist? Or, that the Italian Navy doesn't use these codes? Aside from that, I thought we had mutually agreed to avoid each other (sort of a voluntary interaction ban). This isn't really how you go about avoiding someone... hitting them with needless reverts. Anyhow, I don't mind interacting with you. There have been several times where we got along just fine, because I believe we basically want the same thing - to improve these articles.

NATO STANAG 1166. - BilCat (talk) 11:51, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
... And? That's it? C'mon Bill, you reverted me for a "lack of explanation". I've now provided a full explanation (twice!), with plenty of diffs and everything. I then say I hope we can work this out, (tryin' to be all nice and co-operative and all that), and all you come up with is... "NATO STANAG 1166"? Well, what about it? Are you somehow relying on this discussion from a few years ago? Or, do you have an actual ref you can supply both here and add to these articles to support the inclusion of these codes? Something that is reliable, verifiable and accessible? Whether it's the latest edition of stanag 1166 (#7 I believe, amended), or some Italian Navy nomenclature, or something along those lines. Something that clearly states that the Italian Navy is currently using "CVS" as a hull code for the Garibaldi, as well as using "CVH" as a hull code for the Cavour? (and perhaps explains just what CVH means).
As it is right now, the inclusion of these codes is completely unsupported and appears to be WP:OR. Beyond that, it appears that CVH was just 'made up' by some long gone IP editor, who based it on an assumption, derived from two other similar codes. Here's a quote: "if CVHA is Assault Helicopter Aircraft Carrier and CVHE is Escort Helicopter Aircraft Carrier" then CVH must mean...
Unless (and until) these codes can be properly supported, they should not be in these articles. Work with me here, Bill. - theWOLFchild 14:23, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

update[edit]

I had a look through all the links provided, but could not find any mention of "CVH"/"CVS". I then went hunting around, checking through every link, .pdf, etc., for "nato stanag 1166", and still couldn't find any mention of "CVH"/"CVS". So, it seems that the entry of these codes is unsupported, and the revert of my removal of these codes is unexplained. (Nothing personal, Bill. Have a Merry X-mas) - theWOLFchild 15:23, 24 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page[edit]

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

First ever?[edit]

There were 2 earlier flush-deck aircraft carriers built, though not commissioned: the WW2 Aquila and Sparviero; hence the Garibaldi is not the first "ever". Will amend intro paragraph accordingly. Regards, DPdH (talk) 08:38, 12 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Neither conversion was completed , which is what "built" generally implies in English. Garibaldi certainly was the first purpose-designed carrier from Italy. It would be better to work on suitable wording here first, perhaps as a footnote, and get a consensus among other editors fisrt, instead of adding wording that will just be reverted again. Thanks. - BilCat (talk) 00:17, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
