Talk:Fleet Assault Cruiser

Suggested Move
I'm not a Federation ship expert but recent changes to this page from "the Fleet Assault Cruiser is NOT a fast ship" to "The Fleet Assault Cruiser Refit is one of the most powerful cruisers on the Federation side" totally changed the perspective of this page and made me look closer.

There is a "Fleet Assault Cruiser Refit" page which was redirected here in May 2013, At first I thought the update may have been intended for another variant of this ship (the redirected Refit) but I cannot see a "Fleet Assault Cruiser" in the Federation Shipyard Requisitions, so I assume they are one and the same. In that case this page should be moved to reflect the in-game name of the ship. --Tahno (talk) 12:06, 9 October 2013 (UTC)

Re: Suggested Move
Hi Tahno, If you have a look at other federation ships, they often follow a pattern of: normal -> refit/cstore -> retrofit/cstore -> fleet retrofit Eg: Exploration Cruiser and Long Range Science Vessel OR normal -> mirror -> refit/special/cstore -> fleet normal Eg: Advanced Escort and Star Cruiser (which has no refit yet).

When I created the page, I made the mistake of thinking that the Assault Cruiser follows the 2nd pattern and so just named it 'Fleet Assault Cruiser' assuming that it was a fleet version of the first ship in the pattern. Later on I realised its name had Refit at the end which means it was a fleet version of the refit instead. I don't know how to delete pages or move pages so I changed the the text on the page to include it: "The Fleet Assault Cruiser Refit is an..." etc.

If this page could be moved to "Fleet Assault Cruiser Refit" that would be great :)

 * It should be moved. The proper in game is Fleet Assault Cruiser Refit. It's verified by the fact that owning the Assault Cruiser Refit grants you the fleet module discount. I tried to move it, but apparently it can't be moved while the redirect is in place. — Rayfire  [[Image:User-FED-Sig.png|link=User talk:Rayfire]] 01:53, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
 * You can simply copy the contents of this page and paste it over the redirect and set this page to redirect to the correct page or blank it and have it requested to be deleted. Asanad (talk) 02:13, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Simply copying the data to another page loses all the history of this page. The preferred way to do it would be to move the redirect out of the way, move this page, then move the redirect here, and point it over there. --Tahno (talk) 05:50, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
 * yep got to keep that edit history! Asanad (talk) 09:07, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
 * I agree, this page should be moved. It does not align with how Cryptic names their ships.  Sabby, don't worry about it, it isn't a big deal.  Remember to Be Bold and fix/add things that need done!  Richardhendricks (talk) 23:27, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
