This page should be rethought. Its nature implies a complete catalog, but there were at least several torpedoes named by the names offered here, e.g.: The Mark VII torpedo designation also belonged to an 18-in Royal Navy torpedo introduced around 1909.

Greater attention to this page might make it worthy, but at the moment I wonder if its positive attributes might not be outweighed by its omissions. At the very least, I'd suggest a good caveat paragraph at the head indicating whatever its true scope is (e.g.: "This list shows some examples of torpedoes at use by various navies in the years ...")

I agree, DulcetTone; the page needs a deep re-org. I clicked on the first Mark XIV I came upon and it linked to a British torpedo--I was looking for the American one which was so much trouble in WWII. Binksternet 17:05, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
