Talk:North Carolina-class battleship

Past Tense
The USS North Carolina is still in existence. The page for the ship gives it in the present tense. Thus, a ship in the class still exists, and it should be present tense. --Tickery (talk) 17:38, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I think it's in the past tense because it's mostly a design history, and the class articles on the South Dakota-class battleships and Iowa-class battleships are the same. But I'm not too worried either way. Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 22:33, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
 * This isn't the first time the issue of tense has been brought up on ship pages. Perhaps the issue would be discussed at WT:SHIPS? - wolf  01:04, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Sure., I've opened a discussion at WT:SHIPS. Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 16:43, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
