Wikipedia:WikiProject Australian maritime history/Categories

This sub page of the Australian maritime history project is to trace existing category trees for issues relating to the subject with the ultimate aim of standardising categories - and possibly encouraging some changes where necessary:

Convict Ships

Higher category - Ships by type but the proviso in that category allows alternate use of the word boat it dones not seem to be significantly utilised.

From Category Boats we have This category includes articles on individual vessels often considered as boats. Note that some vessels may be legitimately either here or Category:Ships by type, or both.Category:Ship types has articles on types of ships. Category:Boat types has articles on types of boats.


Port Cities

From the category page -This category contains articles about cities which have a port. For articles which are specific to port facilities see Category:Ports and harbours.

Ports and harbours

From the Ports and harbours category page: -Category:Ports and harbours - Ports and harbours are not quite the same thing, but the articles about them have been combined in this category as they are closely related.

However that category exists in the following categories: Categories: Commercial item transport and distribution | Coastal construction | Water transport | Stations, terminals and stops

Sailing ships

Transport

Transport in Australia is the lead in article for the category Category:Transport in Australia and needs work on the water transport and maritime area

Sub-categories are either by state ie Transport in x state or Category: Water transport in Australia - which means eaqch state article carries water transport sections as well {no NT transport article apparent here but ACT a non maritime territory is)
