Talk:List of torpedoes by name

message: This page should be rethought.  Its nature implies a complete catalog, but there were at least several torpedoes named by the names offered here, e.g.:  The Mark VII torpedo designation also belonged to an 18-in Royal Navy torpedo introduced around 1909.
Greater attention to this page might make it worthy, but at the moment I wonder if its positive attributes might not be outweighed by its omissions.  At the very least, I'd suggest a good caveat paragraph at the head indicating whatever its true scope is (e.g.: "This list shows some examples of torpedoes at use by various navies in the years ...")
:I agree, DulcetTone; the page needs a deep re-org. I clicked on the first Mark XIV I came upon and it linked to a British torpedo--I was looking for the American one which was so much trouble in WWII. Binksternet 17:05, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

*Date design work started?
*In service date?
*Out of service date?

replies: text: I assume in-service date, but the original author just said "year." When I tablized the article I just kept the same heading. Abyssal (talk) 13:47, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

message: I propose that List of torpedoes by country be merged into this table as it is more comprehensive and sortable by country.--Petebutt (talk) 12:32, 26 May 2013 (UTC)

message: Merging the diameter list would add useful prose info to this list and remove an almost useless stand-alone list.--Petebutt (talk) 20:20, 26 May 2013 (UTC)

message: I think that every dimension and weight we list should be in its own sortable column. No cell should contain two different values, except SI and metric values for the same characteristic. The reader should be able to sort by weight, for instance, or by length or by diameter. Binksternet (talk) 23:26, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: In an ideal world, yes, but the size of the table is also an issue.--Petebutt (talk) 02:27, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: If you don't implement it, I will. The size of the table must accommodate the usefulness to the reader. In no case should we combine two completely separate dimensions or specifications. Binksternet (talk) 03:34, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
