Talk:INS Vindhyagiri (2023)

Page renaming proposal - INS Vindhyagiri (Y-3024)
Dear @Shashpant, the page INS Vindhyagiri (Y-3024) was moved to INS Vindhyagiri (2023).

The page INS Vindhyagiri now lists both ships with same name. If you observe, the decommissioned ship article has F42 as its identifier whereas the newly launched ship, according to your edit, has the year 2023 as identifier.

Can we revert it back to Y-3024, in paranthesis, as it was originally created? This would ensure uniformity in the page titles and also logically, all the cited sources refer to this new frigate with its standard, yard number 3024.

Requesting you to reconsider.

Thank you! Anand2202 (talk) 06:04, 20 August 2023 (UTC)


 * INS Vindhyagiri (2023) is correct, see WP:NCS Lyndaship (talk) 06:09, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Dear @Lyndaship, according to WP:NCS, A typical military ship article name has the following form:  <(hull or pennant number or disambiguation)> In this case, it would be INS Vindhyagiri (Y-3024).
 * WP:NCS also states that; For an article about a modern-day ship, include the ship's hull number ... if it is available, sufficiently unique, and well known.
 * Further, WP:NCS mentions; For a ship that does not have a hull and pennant number, and especially when more than one ship had the name, disambiguate the article name with the ship's launch year.


 * @Shashpant Please refer Category:Naval ships of India for more such examples. Considering everything, it is appropriate to revise the article page to its original title.
 * Kindly reconsider. Anand2202 (talk) 05:30, 22 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Y-3024 is neither a pennant number or hull number, it's the builders yard number therefore dab by year of launch. Once the Indian Navy award the ship a pennant number use that as with all other ships of the class. Lyndaship (talk) 06:11, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
