Untitled

Lots of commas are missing, language is bad as the sentences are way to long and structured in a bad way, the authors refer to themselves by using "our managed contract" and similar sentence parts, the references/links point to the same location.

I already changed "their" to "there", the first one being a possessive pronoun and the latter one being an indicator for locations. This shouldn't ever happen to anyone to mix up these two very different words.

Actually, the whole article is not very well structured, giving all information in the section "History". Astonishingly, it does not provide information on other things than company sales and its steady growing.

Besides, it lacks information about quality, prices, recommendations, competitors, quality of service.

After having read this text, I cannot decide on whether to use this ferry, nor do I possess any new references than the one I already had.

In order to sum up, I strongly recommend declaring this article as "deprecated", "needs much cleanup and content". 84.56.242.78 20:01, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Freight/Passenger ferries

I find this section of text (from Norfolkline#Ferry division) a bit misleading:

Norfolkline operates freight ferry services on the English Channel, the Irish Sea and the North Sea. On the Irish Sea Norfolkline provides a combined freight and passenger service.

Unless this article is seeking to redefine the terms 'freight' and 'passenger' as described at the article "[Ferry]]", the description of cross-channel services as a freight ferry is just plain wrong. I crossed with them, in a car, only a month ago! I'm going to change it to be less misleading, as I don't think it'll be a controversial change. If I'm wrong, please discuss here. --Peeky44 (talk) 12:32, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Opening statement

"Norfolkline was a European ferry operator and logistics company owned by DFDS."

1. Surely this should be A.P. Moller-Maersk Group, not DFDS. 2. Norfolkline Ferries is still a brand in DFDS. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.26.21.15 (talk) 09:47, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
