Talk:Shaft lock

Several articles refer to "shaft locks" -- something I have never heard of. One of them piped that to Lock (water transport). I suspect that shaft lock is a misinterpretation of shift lock -- that is ship lock.

I figured that rather than piping -- which is opaque to readers, we should use redirection, which, at least, shows readers where they came from, if, like me, they open links in new tabs.

If there is some meaningful resolution as to the meaning of a "shaft lock" I would have no objection to this redirection being collapsed.
