English Vocabulary[edit]

Atention, brazilian contributors, "corporal" in english means "cabo", army's rank below seargent, in portuguese. So, "corporal punishment" is nonsense, and doesn't mean "castigo físico". The proper expression is "phisical punishment"

Corporal punishment is a perfectly valid English expression, and it means exactly that. 96.35.171.223 (talk) 05:20, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Brazilian Marines[edit]

It should be noted that Brazilian Marines (Fuzileiros Navais, which translates loosely to Naval Riflemen) are the second largest such force in the world.

Changing the Article[edit]

If you want to change something, please show the intention here first.LtDoc 22:46, 28 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The change I made, as stated in the history description, was a factual correction. The Tikuna is not a nuclear submarine. Visit the navy's website (in Portuguese) or GlobalSecurity.org's website for confirmation of this. The Tikuna is considered the "midpoint" to the nuclear submarine.--Dali-Llama 17:26, 29 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Occasion, explications[edit]

Excuse my poor english, I am French.

Occasion, second hand, the Sao Paolo is a ship having made carriére in another navy (Marine nationale °before of étre resold in Brézil. The A-4 has served in the Kuwait Air Force, sold of Brazil in 1997.

I still don't quite get what you're saying--Are you just saying they're used? Si vous voudriez parler français, je peux vous comprendre.--Dali-Llama 19:02, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

fr:Utilisateur:L'amateur d'aéroplanes Thanks you. Je voulait simplement indiqué l'origine du matériel d'occasion de la marine brésilienne. J'en profite pour rajouter quelques images ;)

Update[edit]

The article is being updated to include the template for the Brazilian Navy. And other update included to improve the sections. New pages created and linked to the main article.Chanakyathegreat (talk) 13:47, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WWII[edit]

I think the see also for WWII should be removed because the article hasn't been made yet. It doesn't seem like it belongs. Feelings? Coralshin (talk) 20:03, 26 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Purchase of aircraft carrier[edit]

101.178.163.208: I have removed your addition from the lede section. It is obviously not important enough to be presented in the lede per WP:UNDUE. It could, however, be mentioned in the main body of the article, in the section "Brazilian Navy today". There are several sources in the article about the ship that can be of use. Regarding presentation of future events, please read WP:CRYSTALBALL. Instead of saying things like "NN will do this and that...", it should be "NN have stated that they will do..." or similar. Also, please used a piped link like [[HMS Ocean (L12)|HMS Ocean]] to link directly to the ship and not to the list of ships called "HMS Ocean". --T*U (talk) 13:18, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Recent change[edit]

I've stated that it is an aircraft carrier and then it was changed to helicopter carrier. A helicopter carrier is an aircraft carrier.101.178.163.208 (talk) 06:06, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly. You had first stated that the ship is an aircraft carrier, then that it is a helicopter carrier. No need to say the same thing twice. Helicopter carrier is the more precise term. --T*U (talk) 05:27, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ship article prefixes[edit]

I've noticed that most of the articles about ships in the Brazilian Navy are titled "Brazilian <shiptype> <Ship Name>", e.g. Brazilian tanker Almirante Gastão Motta. These end up being awkwardly long, and usually unnecessarily so: there are no other pages named Almirante Gastão Motta. Per WP:COMMONNAME, these should all use the simple name of the ship when the name is unambiguous. When it is ambiguous (e.g. Brazilian battleship Minas Geraes, it would be simpler to disambiguate with parantheses: Minas Geraes (battleship). Not only is this shorter, but it works better with the wiki software's automatic pipe support. None of the pages I looked at seem to use the prefix in the text, suggesting that it's not part of the ships' official names. Is there some history behind the "Brazilian <shiptype>" prefix that I'm not aware of? pburka (talk) 00:09, 2 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm no mod or admin, but it seems like a good idea. Bernardo2708 (talk) 13:03, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Brazilian Navy proposed for featured article on pt.wiki[edit]

Hello everyone,

We create a Brazilian Navy task force on pt.wiki where we are creating and improving many content related to the Brazilian Navy. We finished a complete review and upgrade on the Brazilian Navy article on pt.wiki. I guess a complete translation could be applied to improve this article on en.wiki.
