LFG Roland G 1 → LFG Roland G.I – standard dot and roman numeral naming format as per multiple refs, incl here and here - NiD.29 (talk) 02:56, 1 May 2016 (UTC) --Relisted. Natg 19 (talk) 22:52, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Agree that the number should be Roman. Contemporary sources used it (eg the Jane's cited in article) and so does the cited, fairly authoritative Grey and Thetford book. Whether it is G.I (Jane's) or G I (G&T) is a minor point, so long as we have redirects.TSRL (talk) 17:10, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The convention on almost all modern references is to use the dot, as it is for most of the wiki pages for German aircraft of the era. There are a few occasions where it is helpful to distinguish between the German military's designation and company designation systems.
