Talk:Balize (tug)

Merger
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
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)|USS ''Bignonia'' (1863)]] ?
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 Andy Dingley (talk) 21:21, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

Engines?
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?
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)
