OK, what a mess.... Stupid
Kayak seems to be the most complete of these articles, but many others need to be merged or something...Kayaking contains some info best integrated elsewhere,Sea kayak is duplicative ofKayak,Whitewater kayaking is also a bit all over the place.Also, there probably needs to be a category.Trollderella18:03, 11 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I merged this toKayak, and added Kayak to the Paddling dab. Of course, among other issues is the fact that we haveCanoeing andKayak. Anyone know if there is a naming convention to solve this? --Mwanner |Talk14:10, 13 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Well the merge lasted for over a year, butUser:Bennyboyz3000 has unmerged it again (3 January 2007), so now we have articles calledKayak andKayaking.
I was in the process of trying to persuade people that building two articlesCanoe andCanoeing was not sensible. Too much duplication of information (and duplication of effort creating the information) Now we have the same situation withKayak andKayaking. Do people think this is a good/bad idea? --Harry Wood17:30, 7 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
| “ | Kayaking is the use of a kayak for moving across water. Whitewater kayaking involves taking a kayak down rapids. Sea kayaking sometimes also referred to as Ocean Kayaking involves taking kayaks out on to the ocean or other open water. Sea kayaking can involve short paddles with a return to the starting point or "put-in" or expeditions covering many miles and days. | ” |
The statement that the difference between a canoe and kayak is whether it has an open or close cockpit isn't true. There are many open cockpit kayaks on the market.208.27.194.10300:32, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
This artical reeks of advertisement and innacurracy. Where is the history of kayaks? Where is any factual information whatsoever? I don't want to feel like i am reading a brochure. --Zer0Cool
Hello, this is just my two cents worth: I don't see a problem with merging both the canoe and the kayak articles into Watercraft Paddling article which would really beef up that article and eliminate the duplication (and confusion of which article to wikilink to).Marcia Wright (talk)02:47, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
PS. The listing of differences between canoe and kayak concerning the paddle type is a gray area. Some people use a double ended paddle when canoeing. It is more a personal preference than a difference.Marcia Wright (talk)02:47, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Just want people to clarify if the link in the external link section is in fact dead. It is showing up as an error 404 for me :)OisinisiO (talk)10:57, 18 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Drop theDesign andConfigurations sections. The article iskayaking notkayaks. Drop theEight Primary Classifications bit. DropActivities involving kayaks and move any remaining information (if any) to the lead.--GhostInTheMachine (talk)05:57, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
