Nautilus class cruiserNautilus class minelaying cruiser – I'm not sure what the original German is, but the reference used in the article describes them as minelayers, not cruisers. That said, "cruiser" does seem to be used extensively - although most (all?) of these appear to be Wikimirrors or use Wikipedia as a source. So the compromise is suggested here. - The Bushranger One ping only 03:32, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - per WP:SHIPS naming conventions, we shouldn't use too-specific ship types (thus, Graudenz class cruiser, not Graudenz class light cruiser), so the proposed name is out. However, Conway's 1906-1921 lists them as minelayers, and Groner's German Warships doesn't include them in the first volume with the cruisers, which leads me to conclude they're in the second volume (which I do not posess) that covers minelayers and other miscellaneous craft. FWIW, according to Conway's, they were designed as "Minendampfer" A and B, which translates roughly as "mine steamer". Parsecboy (talk) 11:50, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
