According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nimitz_class_aircraft_carrier , one Nimitz class carrier costs $4.5 billion to make. Either one of these statements needs to be qualified or deleted...and neither has cited sources. - Snpoj 05:14, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
Has it been verified that the first ship in the class will be named Genesis of The Seas? If not, why call it that? KindOfBlue 11:59, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
there's no proof there going to be named those 3 names

http://dba-oracle.blogspot.com/2007/02/genesis-mega-cruise-ships-coming.html Some graphics... Maybe someone can use it and upload. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Willfey ( talk • contribs) 14:41, 13 April 2007 (UTC).
I presume the owners have no plans for this vessel to dock in New York, since it appears it will not fit under the Verrazano Bridge, which the OM2 barely does —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.14.84.60 ( talk) 00:42, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
They can fit under. The ships are 65 meters above the water, the bridge is 69.5 meters. Not sure if they would be allowed to though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.235.136.245 ( talk) 17:04, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
The article talks about features like bowling alleys, IMAX movie, indoor parachuting atrium, etc. but I see no mention of torpedo bulges, belt armour, deck armour, massive hull compartmentalization, damage control squads, etc. Considering some 8500 people will be onboard the GC ship and there are still quite a few bearded jihadists out there with TNT-laden doahs and rubber dingies, it could be like 3 times 9/11 when hit. Is it responsible to build such a huge passenger ship out of tinfoil and plaster? Considering it has a draught of 9.5 meters and stands 65 meters tall above water, all the walls must be made of cardboard. Scary! 82.131.210.162 20:11, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
Request left to undo/move the Genesis and Oasis renaming swap that was made. The class of ship remains Genesis, with the first ship in that series being announced as named "Oasis of the Seas". Move requested at Wikipedia:Requested moves#23 May 2008. — Sladen ( talk) 14:29, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
"At 360 m (1,180 feet) in length they will be 23 meters (69 feet) longer, and 15 m (48 feet) wider than the present longest passenger ship, the Queen Mary 2. It will also be 8.5 meters (29 feet) wider, with a 43% greater gross tonnage of 220,000 t."
I think we need some clarification with the beam of the ship. Firstly, how can it be both 15m and 8.5m wider than the QM2? Is it being compared to 2 ships or the hull and bridge wings of the QM2? Secondly, the width is given as 47m for this ship (hull or bridge wings?), and the beam of the QM2 is given as 45m (bridge) or 41m at the waterline. If this is accurate it can be a maximum of 6m wider. Can someone please clarify this? Jhbuk ( talk) 13:19, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
The engine specifications for Oasis class of ships differs form the specs for ship Oasis of the Seas. Please check. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.111.52.54 ( talk) 11:48, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
Hi all,
I need some help with trying to fix the category with Ships. I've added some new info about the 3rd Oasis-class ship but something happened and the box thing got very wide on the page. Can someone please fix it? I'm slightly new to wikipedia. Thanks. Sir. Skrill ( talk) 01:40, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
In the Notes section for Allure, Harmony, and Symphony there is a "citation needed." I was going to say "just look left one column" but upon further inspection that column does not support the claims, just look at the data. Symphony is more than 1 meter shorter that Harmony although it has a higher gross tonnage so it depends on which measurement you are talking. I thought I would verify the data from the links given so I followed the reference links pointing to https://vesselregister.dnvgl.com/VesselRegister/vesseldetails.html (and then the vessel number) and they seem to be correct (I had to adjust the length for Allure). It seems Oasis and Allure were tied initially and still are based on length but Oasis is now "bigger" by gross tonnage.
Anyway, obvious some cleanup is needed in the Notes but when that has been adjusted, I think we can get rid of the "citation needed" since the data to support the claims will be right there in the two columns to the left and those numbers have valid citations. Thoughts on that? Andrew S. ( talk) 19:18, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
Hey all, Wonder of the Seas is wrapping up construction and there's lots of info about it, but it's like nobody wants to create an article for said ship. Can anyone explain why? I've been searching for an article, but everything (including a link on this page) redirects back here.
I guess it's up to me... Kaio mh ( talk) 22:17, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
