Talk:Admiralty law

message: In the section on salvage of treasure ships, the USS Monitor was listed as being sunk in the Chesapeake Bay, which is in error.  The CSS Virginia was sunk by damage caused by the USS Monitor in the Chesapeake, however the USS Monitor sank off Cape Hatteras, NC shortly after the battle at Hampton Roads.  The segment was changed to reflect that the Virginia is in the Chesapeake.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.188.171.59 (talk) 06:32, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

message: New Zealand has a clever system of law the the government is built around. It uses maritime law. This can be seen when you look at the layout and terminology used in New Zealand court proceedings. This suggests the New Zealand Government is a business and that the citizens of New Zealand are contractors to the business.  Glass men shine (talk) 22:54, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Hague-Visby Rules

message: I added material to this page which resulted,  I assume,  in the page getting too long and chopping off the end of the article.  
I wasn't able to fix it myself.  Can someone help?
By the way, the previous commentator is correct.  The Hague-Visby Rules are important and need to be referenced in this article,  and a separate article written about them. Rod Sullivan 11:58, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  I screwed up this page-can you help 

message: Under Personal injuries to passengers, I changed the first sentence to "Shipowners owe a duty of reasonable care to passengers (for a broad overview of this theory in law, see negligence)."  I feel that the link to Breach of duty in English law is useful; I am not as certain about how I linked negligence here.  Anyone have a preference for a different method of pointing to negligence? --Matthew K 23:30, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

As I attempt to correct some of these, please let me know if my changes are inaccurate. If this is the case, or there is disagreement, please let me know so we can find the sources so that we can verify the right answers.LH (talk) 07:32, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

message: In the Titanic, it mentions changes to maritime law(linking to the attached article, but no mention of what the changes were is mentioned here (or on the titanic

message: While I realize that the primary users of this service are mostly from the United States, the article might be better served by having a little more information on Admirality Law in other countries- it is an international law system, right? Perhaps reducing the US section and including some other info might be helpful- otherwise we're going to start looking like older editions of the World Book Encyclopedia or something.

replies: text: I have imported the U.S. specific text into a U.S. specific article. I have not removed it from this article because I think some discussion is required before removal. I believe the U.S. specific material should be merely summarized here, and then expanded upon in the new, U.S. specific article (United States admiralty law). LH (talk) 19:34, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

text: I have also restructured the article. I created a country specific heading and moved the general admiralty law material above it to the section "Features of admiralty law." This change should make it easier and much more organized to add country specific information as CapsianKilkelly has suggested. No substantive text was removed or modified during these edits. These changes roughly parallel the structure used in the Bankruptcy set of articles. They feature a primary article outlining the general principles on the topic, and then provide short summaries of more specific bodies of law and provide links to those articles.

replies: text: It's called 'Admiralty Law' because most of modern day maritime law was first codified and spread to other parts of the world by the Admiralty.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.31.130.99 (talk) 10:33, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

message: A request for comments has been filed concerning the conduct of . Jagged 85 is one of the main contributors to Wikipedia (over 67,000 edits, he's ranked 198 in the number of edits), and practically all of his edits have to do with Islamic science, technology and philosophy. This editor has persistently misused sources here over several years. This editor's contributions are always well provided with citations, but examination of these sources often reveals either a blatant misrepresentation of those sources or a selective interpretation, going beyond any reasonable interpretation of the authors' intent.

thread_title:  Misuse of sources 

message: I think the customs of Hanseatic league coudn't be one out of the earlier maritime laws.
In fact the Hansa was founded during the XIII century. In this period the major medieval maritime laws were already written: the Ordinamenta of Trani and the Tabulas of Amalfi, in the mediterranean sea had been written in the XI century; while the Role of Oleron in Northern Europe had been written in the subsequent century.
Previously, you have missed the roman Lex Rhodia de Jactu (included in Justinian's Digest), which is different from the greek Nomos Rhodion nautikon.
You've also omitted the Consulate of the Sea of Barcelona, the most complete maritime law of mediterranean Middle Age (1494).
Finally, you have missed the Ordonnance de la Marine of France (1681).
I think all these have been milestones in the evolution of Maritime law more than the Hanseatic customs. I regard the Pardessus's Collection des lois maritimes as the best compilation of historical maritime laws, still today. Check it!
