Talk:MV Queen of the Oceans

Ocean Princess still active?
The article (MV Oceana) notes that the ship was originally owned by Princess Cruises and named the Ocean Princess. The Princess website still shows the ship as active. Anyone got any information about how this could be? New ship? or something else?

 * The Ocean Princess on Pricess website is the same ship as the current Tahitian Princess. She will be renamed in November 2009. — Kjet (talk · contribs) 15:54, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

lead reverts
There's no need for every article to read exactly the same, particularly when they are poorly written. --emerson7 21:23, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Correct, there's no need for them all to read the same, but it is a good idea to maintain consistency between articles, and structuring all leads the same has that effect. And to be blunt, I didn't realise you had been elected to decide what is well written or not. Crazy-dancing (talk) 21:36, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

Removed reference to a particular brand of mattress. Try and remember this is an encyclopaedia.86.146.222.176 (talk) 21:03, 9 April 2012 (UTC)

External Link
External links were added but removed by administrator for being commericial.

The link added was a ship tracking and information site that I found and would imagine that wiki users would appreciate. Additionally most other cruise ship pages include tracking links to commercial pages so I don't see why this one is any different.

The link added doesn't appear to be particularly commercial and I can find no evidence of selling on the site.

displacement
There seems to be a problem about displacemnt in articles about these liners, or the lack of it. Tonnage seems to be recorded as a measure of the volume enclosed by the ships, and here displacement is defined as 'DWT', meaning the difference in displacement between when the ship is deemed completely empty and completely loaded. Very difficult to compare this ship to others in size when we do not know how much weight of material was used in it. (though I admit it probably uses a lot of aluminium rather than steel to keep down weight on the superstructure, which further complicates comparisons)Sandpiper (talk) 20:19, 7 May 2017 (UTC)
