I support the merge, but the trick is: which article name to keep? Personally, I recommend this article remain the primary article: it began as the SS Conte Grande and she ended as the SS Conte Grande. -- Bossi ( talk • gallery • contrib) 20:24, 19 June 2008 (UTC) reply

I have merged the [USS Monticello]] article into the SS Conte Grande.-- Pico del Teide ( talk) 14:15, 21 June 2008 (UTC). reply
