 * ALT ... that Chennai is Kolkata-class? (quirky one; both are major Indian cities). Redtigerxyz  Talk 10:30, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Well it is quite common for ships names to be after cities. INS Kolkata is just the lead ship of the class, so the ship class happens to be named after her. All I am saying is this is not at all quirky. :) Anir1uph &#124; talk &#124; contrib 12:32, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
 * IMO, since we are not specifying they are ships, the hook seems that "one city is another city-type". So quirky. Final decision with nominators :) Redtigerxyz  Talk 15:21, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
 * OK! I see what you mean. Something like "Chennai is the third Kolkata-class destroyer of the Indian Navy". That should be better! I will let Strike decide. :) Anir1uph &#124; talk &#124; contrib 15:32, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
 *  IMHO the hooks like RedTiger proposed have attracted less views..see this example...I feel we could alter the existing hook to make it more understandable.. I think the info about armament would attract more views than the namesake Cheers,  TheStrike   Σagle   16:15, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
