The result of the move request was: moved to SS Columbia (1902 ocean liner). DAB is preferable for "SS Columbia (1902)" and per discussion, consensus is in favor of 1902 ocean liner for this, and 1902 steamboat for the other article.

SS Columbia (1902 steamship) → SS Columbia (1902) – proper naming for the vessel, current redirect is outdated Crook1 (talk) 21:41, 11 August 2021 (UTC) PAGE ]]) 14:53, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * The problem is that there are two 1902 ships named SS Columbia. A more sensible approach might be to move this to SS Columbia (1902 ocean liner), and redirect SS Columbia (1902 steamship) to SS Columbia. --Ahecht ([[User talk:Ahecht|TALK
 * SS Columbia (1902 ocean liner) is a better title choice since apparently both were steamships built in 1902, but SS Columbia (1902 steamship) would still be ambiguous and so should redirect to List of ships named SS Columbia. - Station1 (talk) 17:40, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * We really don't need a redirect for SS Columbia which was built in 1902 and a small obscure boat. The real steamship is SS Columbia (1902 steamship) which should be SS Columbia (1902) per our guidelines. The disambiguation page takes care of the rest. Crook1 (talk) 21:11, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Another solution would be to move SS Columbia to Columbia (Excursion Steamer), since this is what she was unlike other ocean going steamships. Crook1 (talk) 21:12, 12 August 2021 (UTC)

 * Move to SS Columbia (1902 ocean liner). The other one should probably be moved to SS Columbia (1902 steamboat), as I don't think it's especially primary. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:28, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * it was a passenger-cargo ship not a liner. The other one was excursion boat. Per our guidelines, first separation is by launch year. So one should be SS Columbia (1902) and the other one Columbia (Excursion boat). That will be proper designation.Crook1 (talk) 16:45, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * The article says: "SS Columbia was a 8,292 GRT Ocean liner, build for the Anchor Line as a passenger and cargo liner." Is that incorrect? Station1 (talk) 17:45, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Ocean liner is valid I think judging by the number of passengers it carried as listed here Lyndaship (talk) 18:17, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I sourced that to The Encyclopedia of Ships and this when I wrote the article minus the GRT ocean liner which was added later. SL93 (talk) 18:34, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
 * No, because that would still be incomplete disambiguation, since both were launched in 1902. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:01, 19 August 2021 (UTC)
