These ships are all linked by the expensive and ultimately inconsequential South American dreadnought naval arms race. All of the component articles are or will soon be featured (Agincourt has been promoted but is waiting on the bot run). Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 21:45, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

- I think you could get away with treating those topics as subtopics here; though I don't get the impression that this topic would be outside the remit of WP:OMT—after all, it's a bit more relevant than
battleship (game) or
Battleship (horse), which are included in Phase V of the project's scope.

- I'm with Grapple X and I don't think that any transnational topic necessarily requires the demise of any national topic. I have a draft topic for Battleships of the Russo-Japanese War at the bottom of my
sandbox that I'm currently working on and it shouldn't affect any of the class articles/topics, if I decide to include them, at all as they could be considered sub-topics. And the topic article arguably belongs in OMT although we could argue exactly which phase it's most appropriate in.--

- I also agree with Grapple X here. An FT composed of sub FTs shouldn't disqualify either one for featured topic status. They can co-exist, after all nothing on Wikipedia says that that they can not.

- Grapple- Phase V would not be included in the eventual FT we're planning, which will go from battleships -> battleships of [country] ( example) -> [ship] class battleship. :-) Sturm- SADR is in phase 3 right now.
- Everyone- alright then, if it doesn't supersede them, then I'm fine with it—I'll just note that this situation did occur before, albeit only on a national level, at
Wikipedia:Featured topic candidates/Moltke class battlecruisers/archive1.

- Sorry for not being clear. Yes, they were completed, but they were not actually used by the countries themselves and have no real relevance to the world outside the scope of this proposed topic. That's why I sait that they naturally fall in this super-category, and not in separate sub-categories.

- Sorry for my confusion, but the MG class and Rivadavia class were both used by their respective countries? Agincourt and one of the two Chilean ships weren't, but they would only be a part of this topic. MG and Rivadavia, on the other hand, have their own topics. What key information am I missing in your argument? :-) Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 16:41, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
