Because there were two Italian battleships named Andrea Doria -- this one and Italian battleship Andrea Doria (1885) -- I have moved the article about the 1913 ship here and changed the resulting Italian battleship Andrea Doria redirect page into a shipindex/disambig page providing links to both the 1913 ship and to a new article on the 1885 ship. The titles of both articles now comply with the Wikipedia naming standards (i.e., ship name plus launch year in parentheses when multiple ships have the same name).
I have fixed all articles and lists linking to the disambig page as a result of the move so that they now link to the appropriate ship article (for the 1885 ship or the 1913 ship). All links -- except those on various talk pages (those of you with such links on your talk pages may wish to correct them) -- are now correct (as of 3 May 2010).
Some links to Italian battleship Andrea Doria should have linked to the 1885 ship, not to the 1913 ship as they did when the 1913 ship article had its original title without launch year. Those errors should now be resolved as well; all links intended for the 1885 ship should now link to the article for the 1885 ship. Mdnavman (talk) 16:50, 3 May 2010 (UTC)mdnavmanReply
