Tables for ships?

edit

I was wondering if anyone had any objections to organizing the list of ships in the fleet into a table similar to the aircraft in the interest of clarity and saving space? Example below. -Loren 07:03, 16 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Grammar

edit

"Aircraft" not "aircrafts", please. John Smith's (talk) 10:05, 23 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Upper or lower case and general style

edit

In the tables that list the various aircraft, missiles, etc and anon-IP editor has changed upper case descriptions to lower case ones. For example "maritime patrol aircraft" instead of "Maritime patrol aircraft". I personally prefer upper case, so unless anyone has strong objections I will change them over when I have the time. Otherwise please leave your views here.

Furthermore I agree with Loren's proposal above. I don't like the colour of the current table, nor the fact it's separated. I'll look into carrying out the work when possible. John Smith's (talk) 20:18, 9 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Further to there being no objections, I have changed the table colour to a nice "naval grey" which is more in keeping with the article's theme (the blue-green was not nice). I have also merged destroyers and frigates together into "surface combatants", rather than have a table for one class of ship.

On the matter of aircraft in service, I don't think it would be appropriate using a citation from four years ago. John Smith's (talk) 16:10, 27 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

I've also made a few edits to try to get the pictures to line up properly and remove clashes between the "edit" links and the pictures - apologies for not getting it on the first edit. John Smith's (talk) 16:15, 27 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

One last thing. I changed the patrol ship entry to "Fast Attack Missile Craft", as they all carry anti-ship missiles so there's no point using the more generic "patrol" type. John Smith's (talk) 16:21, 27 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

under construction

edit

I disagree with removing that information. Saying when something will be completed is not the same as saying its currently under construction. So I will revert its omission to restore that piece of information.Giovanni33 (talk) 23:52, 17 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

In that case it's also misleading to say 30 are under construction, as they're not. I am changing the entry accordingly. John Smith's (talk) 00:08, 18 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Removal of flags

edit

I have restored the flags because Pyl's justification in removing them is invalid - there is no "flag convention". There is a MoS that makes suggestions over how they can be used, but I do not see anything that contradicts their use here.

He has complained that:

  1. The flags make the article difficult to read.
  2. These tables do not fall into the MoS guidelines.
  3. It is confusing to use the ROC flag with the word "Taiwan".

I would respond as thus:

  1. The flags do not make the article difficult to read and actually enhance the tables, making the origins easier to identify.
  2. The MoS gives suggestions, not a finite number of examples, as to when flags can be used. Again, a MoS is not binding and there appropriate people can make their own styles.
  3. It is not confusing at all, because Taiwan is a well known location. On the other hand "Republic of China" is highly confusing. Having "Taiwan" is thus a lot better and as the flag is flown on the island there's no reason not to use it.

On another note I am trimming the arms discussion as most of it is not relevant to the navy. John Smith's (talk) 18:37, 9 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hai Shih class submarines: One Tench, one Balao

edit

The article lists both Hai Shih submarines as Tench-class. However, one of them, the former USS Tusk (SS-426), is actually Balao-class. -- 188.194.254.195 (talk) 14:30, 19 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Cheng Kung-class frigates

edit

Cheng Kung-class frigates were locally built in Taiwan not second hand purchased from the US, there is a entire wiki page about that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.199.203.79 (talk) 06:02, 4 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
