I've compile the information here from multiple different sources, the list is probably not complete (I see some other ship names on the Chinese Wikipedia that I cannot verify with my sources).
I understand the definition of the article is a bit murky - "Chinese" navy including that of Qing & RoC but not of warlord cliques, Manchukuo, Wang Jingwei regime navy, etc., and the time period appears arbitrary but I cannot find a good way to separate 1644-1911/1911-1945 as many of the ships were passed over from Qing to the Nationalists so there will be a lot of overlap if I do that. If someone has a better idea of how to organize the page, feel free to do it. Rinbro ( talk) 05:05, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
Apologies for any errors in understanding but I am new here.
As a suggestion as an improvement to this list I would propose that all Chinese ships names come with 5 key variables
Namely: Giles Wade, Pinyin, Chinese Traditional, Chinese Simplified, English Translation
A good example of the use of all 5 is here
/info/en/?search=Chinese_ironclad_Dingyuan
I have actually set up a spreadhseet for each ship in this list with each of these variables
As a secondary suggestion I would propose that all Chinese ship pages be titled with their Pinyin not Giles Wade. At the moment this is variable.
Regards
