| - __NOWYSIWYG__ I propose we rename the "Cabbage Corp airship" page to "Ba Sing Se airship" or "Earth Kingdom airship". While it is indeed manufactured by Cabbage Corp, which has the significant role in the airships being weaker, it is most clearly painted in the Earth Kingdom colors. As such, if anyone in universe would view those airships, they basically scream "Earth Kingdom airship" as opposed to "manufactured by Cabbage Corp airship". Since Mako referred to the crashed airship as "Ba Sing Se airship", that name has a canonical reference. However, I don't think it's a stretch to say that the airships are used by the EK military all over the nation. As such, "Earth Kingdom airship" has a much broader use.

| - __NOWYSIWYG__ I propose we rename the "Cabbage Corp airship" page to "Ba Sing Se airship" or "Earth Kingdom airship". While it is indeed manufactured by Cabbage Corp, which has the significant role in the airships being weaker, it is most clearly painted in the Earth Kingdom colors. As such, if anyone in universe would view those airships, they basically scream "Earth Kingdom airship" as opposed to "manufactured by Cabbage Corp airship". Since Mako referred to the crashed airship as "Ba Sing Se airship", that name has a canonical reference. However, I don't think it's a stretch to say that the airships are used by the EK military all over the nation. As such, "Earth Kingdom airship" has a much broader use. (And on a related, though less important note, since those names are also conjecture: we have the Ba Sing Se airship captain and Ba Sing Se airship co-pilot, who flew the "Earth Kingdom airship".) 19:14, August 15, 2014 (UTC) I agree with LL. It's created particularly for EK, and I believe the airships that Cabbage Corp produce aren't all for Earth Kingdom. Per LL. 19:17, August 15, 2014 (UTC) I agree with Lady Lostris seeing as we have the pages, Ba Sing Se airship captain and the co-pilot as well. It also has a better ring to it :p. (I would sign, but i don't know how). Tono555 19:51, August 15, 2014 (UTC) I agree, though I'm in favor of "Ba Sing Se airship", as it is canonical, because Mako said it. Also, while these airships are probably used all over the kingdom, the airship class might be offically named after Ba Sing Se. I don't see another reason for Mako to refer to the carshed one as "Ba Sing Se airship" than that it is the offical name for the class, especially when Korra's airship might not even came from the capital (we only know that its destination was Ba Sing Se).

We don't know if the airships are used by the wider Earth Kingdom military, and not just within Ba Sing Se, so I'd say it would be speculation to assume otherwise. 22:45, August 15, 2014 (UTC) I'm perfectly fine with that: rename the airship "Ba Sing Se airship" and rename the other pages accordingly. 22:51, August 15, 2014 (UTC)
