Talk:Chinamax

bad references
This article was marred by bad references, for years. The original reference was malformed, and unrecoverable.

The external links section contains references to other wikis. Well, we don't generally reference other wikis, on the grounds they are no more reliable than the wikipedia. But maybe, since then, the wikipedia proved so good some genuine RS started using wikipedia technology. So I didn't remove them, yet. If I return here, in a reasonable period of time, and no consensus has arisen to keep them, I am removing them.

Oh, Chinamax and Valemax are synonyms -- that is what RS say, so I removed the separate and inadequateoy referenced valemax subsection ... Geo Swan (talk) 03:31, 17 December 2016 (UTC)


 * There is a Valemax article. The way I read the two articles, Chinamax is a size standard (akin to Panamax etc only larger); Valemax is the class of ships designed by Vale S.A. which meet the Chinamax standard. So, by definition, all Valemax ships are Chinamax ships, but not all Chinamax standard ships are necessarily Valemax class. --Scott Davis Talk 00:14, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
