OK I'm not going to argue over this but if this is a dab page (as it suggests it is) it should be governed by MOS:DAB because this is not an article. If however it is a list then it is not. Could the category be changed to reflect this I wonder? Abtract (talk) 02:03, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Shipdab was set up as an alternative to general dab pages, combining features of a dab page with that of a list. This is why it has the specific template, and does not carry the general dab one. I don't recall this being a categorisation problem before, and there are thousands of such pages. But this is a case where common sense has ruled out the general application of MOS:DAB requirements, and specific guidelines have duly been written especially for these pages. If you hadn't come across them before then you weren't to know. Benea (talk) 03:43, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
