explanation

Another contributor, using an automated editing tool, changed the fleet section from a sortable table to a list - but without any explanation.

Tables have advantages over simple lists - like being sortable, so I changed it back.

If you are going to make big changes, please explain yourself on the talk page, OK? Geo Swan (talk) 08:11, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorting a six-item list is pointless, especially when one of the columns is blank and a second contains sentences. There is nothing wrong with being BOLD and making a change - discussion isn't required beforehand. Not 100% sure how Jay D. Easy feels about the issue (though I can make an educated guess) but I personally think the listified version is easier to read. Primefac (talk) 21:22, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Primefac: spot on. Jay D. Easy (t • c) 22:49, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
