The brunt of this article is about the ships wartime Austrian career yet the article is bearing the Yugoslavian name. I am not gonne rename it but it probably should. 31.151.174.97 (talk) 08:31, 24 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't think IPs could move articles, but in any case while WP:SHIPNAME says it should be at the best-known name, I don't think all the information is in regarding her service in the Yugo navy, she only spent three years in the A-H Navy, but 21 years in the Yugo Navy. It may need to move in the future. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 08:52, 24 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I only suggested it should be moved. Its true IPs can’t move a page but I have an account I just forgot to log in. My apologies for that. But as the article is now it seems her Austrian career was much more significant than the 21 years she spent in the Yugoslavian navy. Taking into account she was probably obsolete by WW2. But don’t worry I will not move it. Just out of curiosity how do you determine the best known name? I can imagine that it language and country specific. Anyway great work writhing the article. Pindanl (talk) 09:51, 24 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, sorry about that. Get a fair of bit of IP trolling where I edit, so my apologies for the brusque tone. WP:SHIPNAME is what we use, so best-known name, but your point about language is well-made, German, Hungarian or Serbo-Croat (or English), it is pretty subjective wording...

@Peacemaker67: Turns out the monitor was commanded by Aleksandar Berić during the invasion, not Kockar (his predecessor). She destroyed three German aircraft before being sunk. 23 editor (talk) 02:56, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think you mean Drava? Berić commanded Drava, and that article mentions the three aircraft claimed. Peacemaker67 (crack... thump) 22:30, 2 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

My mistake, you're right. The source says Drava indeed. 23 editor (talk) 22:48, 2 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Might need a MOS:BADITALICS checks for proper nouns in non-English; hard to tell since many are ships. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 23:19, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ships are right, but I de-italicised Luftwaffe, as I see it is now in Merriam-Webster (per rule of thumb for italicisation of foreign terms). Not sure about the rest, I find that MOS guidance hard to understand without examples. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 23:33, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
