Talk:Maritime transport

message: Is there any particular reasoning behind the the use of 'Ship transport' when there is a largely populated category with 'Water transport' as the title? SatuSuro 01:30, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Considering 'ship' is a very limited term - and that in the full history of water transportation many devices could never be called ship - surely the more appropariate title would be water - and the ship title be a redirect...anyone? SatuSuro 02:46, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

message: It would be good to have something about transportation using rivers, canals, and the like. Volga boatman come to mind. What technology was used to transport people and their goods up and down river? RMcPhee 11:16, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree barging, aka inland navigation, is an important and growing part of the transport industry. It deserves an article of its own and a barge section in this article. Everybody got to be somewhere! (talk) 00:03, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  barges and rivers 

message: I've been thinking and clearly "Ship transport" is a somewhat ugly title; also "shipping", the offcial IMO term, can (and does) refer to the transportation of goods outside the maritime branch. So I prupose changing "Ship transport" to "Shipping (maritime)". I think this is the best move. Yosy 14:16, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

message: Hello,
There is a site which I thought would relate to this article. You may consider adding details about SeaFolks.com. Its an online community of merchant navy officers around the world. Thank you.

thread_title:  Note to the editor of the article. 

message: There are a number of non-transport ships in the ship types section.  Dredgers, tug boats and cable layers for example and not transport ships so are irrelevant to this article and should be deleted.  I'll do this shotly unless there are any objectionsBrylaw (talk) 07:08, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ship Types 

message: This rewrite was erased:
People are usually transported in ships especially designed for this purpose (ferry's, cruise ships, yachts, ...) and cargo is usually also transported seperatly in especially constructed ships (cargo ships). In certain cases however, people and cargo are transported together (eg ferries, cargo ships with passenger accomodation).   
I still deem this rewrite useful and I also think that a "history" and "purpose" section (for people, cargo transport and warfare) is necessairy? The article looks sloppy and the professional mariner-section, engineering department, other departments, ... is totally useless in this article. Move this info to other articles.
Please rewrite the article based on the suggestions.
Thanks

Maritime transport (not ship transport)  is the action of bringing people (passengers) or things (solid or liquid cargoes) by sea from one geographical location to another on board a ship.

replies: text: Yes, I would support this or as a new page creation on this, currently there are not any Wikipedia articles on autonomous ships / ship navigation systems. Shaded0 (talk) 16:39, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  The first autonomous (container) ship has arrived: MV_Yara_Birkeland. I linked it in the see also section, but we should make a section/article for this ship type.
