Agree, that's what I mean with "they don't even have to be numbers". The category is a classification itself, so it shouldn't be rare to give a name based exclusively on such category. You already did it giving all category 8 as "FBB" and "BBV" to category 10. If you were to change all nomenclature in the wiki following a standard, it would be a common hull code (all agree a battleship with seaplanes is not a carrier, so hence it's still a BB) followed by a letter or word that differentiates between categories. In example "BB-Fast", "BB-TypeA", "BB-V", BB-F", etc.

But as I said it's just an idea and also off-topic, because the center of this thread is to choose over an already proposed standard over Taihou. So don't mind me, you can go on.
