Me too. "Deck" pretty much implies ship, at least to me. The only way to know for sure is ask Epic, specifically the mapper(s) for this.
I've been thinking about a general "Deck maps" article, or even "Map series" general article, but decided I think a "See also" section where all the other maps are listed and inter-linked (with the game it's in behind it in brackets) is sufficient. The same for series like that including DM-CurseII, but also relations like DM-Deimos which basically is a combination of DM-Phobos and DM-HyperBlast (if I'm not mixing up maps). The general article could still contain some notes on design differences between version, the way maps relate, that kind of stuff. Actually now that I think of it, a "Deck maps" category at the bottom (compare to the "Gametypes" category at the bottom of "Deathmatch") might be nice, especially if the series contains a lot of different versions.
