Move
Since this is not a modern rank in the Royal Navy, and when it was used it was a rating, not a rank, I am moving this article to Ordinary Seaman (rating)  --Woland (talk) 18:27, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Ordinary seaman (rating) → Ordinary seaman (rank) – Reverse the redirect for WP:CONSISTENCY. No other military rank article uses "(rating)" as the disambiguator and across WP only. It was moved from "(rank)" in 2008, with the ES "this is not a modern rank in the Royal Navy, and when it was used it was a rating, not a rank". However, it is a rank in the Royal Canadian Navy and Irish Naval Service, as the article says. 62.165.227.102 (talk) 10:38, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
