Finnish icebreaker Kontio → MS Kontio – Per WP:NC-SHIP. Relisted. BDD (talk) 16:41, 31 October 2012 (UTC) Beagel (talk) 10:31, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

Oppose. The Finnish state-owned icebreakers are never referred to by the prefix "MS". How about Kontio (icebreaker)? Tupsumato (talk) 12:47, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

The Finnish sources sometimes use either IB ("icebreaker") or JM ("jäänmurtaja", "icebreaker" in Finnish) as a prefix for the Finnish icebreakers, but I'm absolutely against introducing yet another prefix to Wikipedia (IMHO, MSV is just as bad...). Thus, if "Nation Type Name" is not acceptable as per WP:NC-SHIP, I'd go for "Name, (icebreaker, year)", the year being used only if there is a need to disambiguate. Perhaps we could drop even "icebreaker" from the article name? Tupsumato (talk) 13:23, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

WP:COMMONNAME is also against MS Kontio. Tupsumato (talk) 15:00, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

• Support Current title is awkward compared to other ship articles. Hill Crest's WikiLaser! (BOOM!) 20:35, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

• Oppose. No evidence that the proposed name is common, and despite the claim above, Wikipedia:Naming conventions (ships)#Ships from navies without ship prefixes supports the current format exactly. Andrewa (talk) 05:45, 8 November 2012 (UTC)

Two short documentary videos

Two videos from Monocle (UK magazine) at:

• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_Aq3XkQj3Y "Icebreakers: rescue know-how"
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6Mz6kwA0Vc "Icebreakers: life on board"

That were based from this vessel. Possibly of use/interest. Quiddity (talk) 00:40, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
