Oppose Sounds better as it is. Carina22 10:02, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
Support, "sounding better" is POV, and consistency is more important. R adiant _>|< 14:36, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
Opppose as above. I wish I hadn't started this process. As I recall most of them were "Fooish ships" to start with and they should all move that way. CalJW 21:35, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: What are the criteria in the choice between Fooian something and something of Foo? — Instantnood 21:55, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
  - Comment: good question. i don t know what the need to not use Fooian something is?? -Mayumashu 03:58, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
    - The main criterion is consistency. If all categories related to fruit are in the form "Apples from Germany", then you should not create "Spanish bananas". Radiant_>|< 16:46, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
      - Then what decide how the majority should be named? — Insta ntnood 15:49, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
        
        Happenstance, mostly. Discussion on CFD, otherwise. R adiant _>|< 10:18, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
Support for consistency. Arniep 23:20, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
Support --Jondel 08:45, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
Comment See Wikipedia:Naming conventions (categories)#Miscellaneous "of country" for official policy. Military equipment (of which aircraft carriers are a descendent) are to be in the "... of country" format. In fact, official policy even states this matter should be a speedy.

Rename as proposed. --Vizcarra 15:33, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
