This page and List of ship companies essentially contain the same type of information, and the similar names are confusing. I suggest merging them into this article (which is nicely laid out). – VisionHolder « talk » 16:36, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
Some of the information on this page (and also on List of ship companies) appears to be out of date. If the two pages are merged, they should be cleaned up first. Also, in terms of updating this page, what scheme was used in assigning a company to a specific country or continent? Star Line, a charter break-bulk and bulk cargo carrier, does not have any regular routes - it serves given industries rather than countries; how was the decision made to list it as North American? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Petriedn ( talk • contribs) 01:54, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
I propose a merging with List of ship companies and a simplification of the table, as follows. One blue wikilink per entry (for either company or parent company) ought to establish notability, to prevent this from turning into the Yellow Pages. BTW, the table, as it is, is way too complicated and in illogical order, and does not allow the easy (because of the rowspan variable, which we can simply replace by organizing in subsection headings ("===" level). The example removes a non-notable entry from "shipping", and adds a few from "ship".
North America (this would be a "==" level heading)
Canada
