I keep changing my mind on this, though. While I see the reasons for merging the two ships into one page, especially since they are essentially the same ship with a different name, it seems a little... revisionist. The Achilles has had, and may have in the future, a history separate from the Nemesis. Merging it into the Nemesis page isn't quite right, since as an NCP ship it is named Achilles. However, merging the Nemesis into the Achilles page means that the Nemesis disappears as a distinct historical ship in the UFoP history books. While I disagree with FltCapt. Wong-Aquiss' naming conventions, I don't think undoing it like that is right either. I think I still vote for keeping them separate. Maybe we can compromise and have explicit links to each other on each page? -- Capt. Mar -- 02:35, 7 July 2008 (EDT)
