Is that a sail?[edit]

Should "Odyssey" be italicized?[edit]
In English, generally the convention is to italicize the names of individual ships and crafts in the same way a movie title, album, novel, or binomial scientific name would be italicized. Secondary sources for this convention include Wikipedia's style guide, Grammarly, National Geographic, and the Navel Marine Archives. Shouldn't this also be the case here (in addition to other ships such as the S.S. Flavion)? Nintendo101 (talk) 15:30, April 28, 2020 (EDT)
- I would suggest leaving them as they are in their source, which is to say, largely unitalicized. LinkTheLefty (talk) 16:13, April 28, 2020 (EDT)
