Talk:List of battleships of Russia and the Soviet Union

[Untitled]
this page combines the didferent types. there are more of each type however and this list will get quite long.


 * I've merged in the Steam Battleships and Dreadnought Battleships - there were some discrepancies, but I believe these were mostly due to transliteration issues. Would be worth checking against a reliable source, though. Shimgray | talk | 17:56, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

For clarification, I propose to rename this article "List of ships of the Russian Empire". The major discontinuity between Russia then and Russia now, would necesitate this I should think.Crocodilicus 04:55, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Is this "just" a list article?
Hi Wikipedians, To me this is a useful list, however it seems that there is too much information for this type of article. I propose removing most of the text (eg: history) as it should be already in each ship/class article; and give tabular format to this list. Columns might be something like: name of ship (with interwiki to article), class (with interwiki to article), years of service, key characteristics (length, beam, displacement, main and secondary armament), fate, comments. Maybe some "good" naval list article could be used as benchmark? Feedback on this proposal will be very much appreciated. Regards, DPdH (talk) 08:00, 25 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry I couldn't get to you earlier. I was out of country at the time of the post. I believe that it has been established that lists should have history, as per List of battlecruisers of the Royal Navy, List of battleships of Germany and List of battlecruisers of Germany, to name a few. Hope this helps. Buggie111 (talk) 16:08, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your response, I was unaware of this guideline or agreement. Is it exclusive to the "Battleships Portal" list articles, or applicable to wikipedia lists in general? Where is this guideline documented? Thanks & regards, DPdH (talk) 15:54, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I believe it should only be a short summary of the class history – not each individual ship. Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 16:18, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

Missing Ekaterina II-class
This article is missing the Ekaterina II-class, which is indirectly refences at one point in the article but never linked or mention directly. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ekaterina_II-class_battleship#Ekaterina_II 132.170.55.255 (talk) 19:52, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Those ships are better characterized as ironclads, not pre-dreadnoughts or newer like the others.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:48, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
