Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified one external link on British Shipbuilders. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
- Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20070205121320/http://www.dti.gov.uk/files/file28508.pdf to http://www.dti.gov.uk/files/file28508.pdf
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).

British Shipbuilders Evolution edit
I just reverted the unexplained removal of this really helpful table that SKS spent a lot of time on a decade ago. Apparently there is a problem of its visibility on some mobile platforms. That may indeed be so, and hopefully someone will be able to advise on how to approach that technically. In my view this template, subject to some amendments is, just about the only way to present this complicated story with any clarity. However, a new, and odd, problem is that when I amended the template just now the revised version appears on its own page, but only the previous version will, at least for me, open on the British Shipbuilders page. Help needed!! Davidships (talk) 19:25, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
- I agree, this is an extremely helpful diagram. It may have too much information for a mobile display, and there may be a technical remedy for that, but deleting it isn't the answer! As for edits to the template not showing up here, there is sometimes a time delay with edits to templates. It seems to be OK now. Xyl 54 (talk) 23:08, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks Xyl 54, it looks fine now (it was still not working properly yesterday, so indeed there was some delay) - and that gives me confidence to make a few more upcoming edits. On mobile visibility, that's not my problem - I invited the editor concerned to add to the template talk page, so that is up to him now. Davidships (talk) 23:28, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
