concurrently, but the bulk of their production were the Type VII medium-range and the Type IX long-range submarines (with some specialized boats). This is a grey area, and I have deliberately chosen an example that in my opinion should be included as concurrent classes, but other examples would likely not be suitable (continuing the theme, the specialized Type XB and XIV classes).

These are just particularly obvious examples for ships of the same type built at the same time by the same nation. There are more examples, particularly if you start considering ships with the same official classification but different capabilities. Germany built a few different types of U-boats

Although edit requests are not normally closed, a request has been made for this one to bring clarity and closure. Despite a lack of substantial participation, there is no substantial record of opposition to this request. The request should be implemented when practical by interested editors.

Custom fields have always been 'fully manual'; when creating a custom field, the creator has always been required to manually format the field heading and the rendered value so that the custom parts of an infobox have the same look as the automatically rendered parts. Instead
1044:. The Type VII page has the Type IX listed as a succeeding class, but as "Type IX (long-range complement)" (this is not mirrored on the Type IX page). It's clunky and works if there were a handful of cases (like the Type XXI page), but it's not as useful for a larger scale. 1023:
lists the Types 26, 31, and 32 as ships that will succeed this frigate, but the Type 26 and Type 31 pages don't mention the others in the Class Overview template (except the in-development Type 32 that may succeed the Type 31). The three pages make it clear that the

class evens. Another would be the British Type 26 and Type 31 frigates: the orders were for three Type 26s in 2017, five Type 31s in 2018, and then five more Type 26s in 2022 (Royal Navy specific), with both classes being built concurrently by different yards. The

Over a year ago so not really relevent anymore, but I'm assuming I saw the code but was wondering why it was coded badly like that. There are many ways to italic a title without also casuing the namespace to be in italics.

DDG 118's Call Sign, now visible in San Diego Harbor, is NINO as reflected in her pennants, not NDLI. Also, the graphic corresponding to that call sign should be substituted for the erronious one.

Given the number of examples I believe we should add a third group to formalize the concurrent classes, along with rules about when this should and should not be used to clear up the grey area.
