Talk:History of the anchor

Why oh why does this need its own article? Can't this be addressed sufficiently in the anchor article? Beach drifter (talk) 01:00, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It does not need it's own article, but the public domain text should be integrated into the Anchor article (who's history section is lacking). I haven't the time right now. Pjbflynn (talk) 02:21, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I would agree that this could be merged. But this and the main anchor article seems to ignore all the development of high-holding-power anchors utilized in the oil and gas industry - concentrating instead on small boat, marine and navy anchors. See such as Stevmanta and other Stevin anchors from Vrijhof ankers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.10.191.103 (talk) 12:31, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
