Context

Please be specific. It is reasonable to assume that most readers will have heard of Italy and will know what a battleship is. Define what in particular is missing, otherwise the task of correcting the article is quite impossible. Gordon Vigurs 17:12, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Change Page Title and Category from Caio Duilio to Duilio

I think it should be pointed out that the name of this unit was officially Duilio, not Caio Duilio. This was further pointed out by Erminio Bagnasco and Augusto de Toro in their new release about the namesake successors, Italian Battleships Conte di Cavour and Duilio Classes 1911-1956, Seaforth Publishing, 2021: on page 27 they directly state that "as with the famous 1876 battleship, the name Duilio was not preceded by the proper prefix Caio, as applied to all successive ships of that name". I ask therefore if it is possible to modify the title of the page and of every link, not only of this ship, but also of the 1913 battleship. OmegaPog 13:12, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Bagnasco and de Toro are pretty well-respected naval historians, and it seems they have come to the conclusion that the ships' names were simply Duilio. It seems reasonable to move the page and note that they were sometimes called Caio Duilio. Parsecboy (talk) 10:11, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
