Very low priority

  • Bailout gas – Emergency breathing gas supply carried by the diver
  • Bottom gas – Gas breathed during the deep part of a dive
  • Breathing air – Air quality suitable for safe breathing
  • Decompression gas – Oxygen-rich gas used for accelerated decompression
  • Emergency gas supply – Alternative independent breathing gas supply carried by a diver
  • Ankle weights (diving) – Diver trim weights worn at the ankles
  • Integrated weights – Diving weights carried in pockets on the buoyancy compensator
  • Trim weights (diving) – Diving weights distributed primarily to improve trim
  • Weight belt – Ballast carried to counteract buoyancy
  • Jonline – A short line used by scuba divers to clip themselves to something
  • Power inflator – Low pressure gas supply valve for buoyancy compensator
  • Decompression cylinder – Scuba cylinder carrying decompression gas
  • Dump valve (diving) – Pressure relief and manual vent on diving buoyancy compensator
  • Decompression buoy – Inflatable surface marker buoy deployed from underwater
  • Decompression trapeze – Horizontal bars suspended at decompression stop depths
  • Bottom timer – An electronic instrument that records depth and elapsed time data on an underwater dive
  • Pneumofathometer – Instrument for measuring the depth of a diver by air pressure
  • Submersible pressure gauge – Pressure measuring instrument for underwater service
  • Diving stage – Platform on which a diver is transported vertically through the water
  • Dive reel – Device for storing, deploying and recovering underwater guide line
  • Diver's cutting tool – A tool to assist in extricating the diver from entrapment by lines or nets
  • Diver's knife – A tool to assist in extricating the diver from entrapment by lines or nets
  • Diving safety harness – A harness by which the diver can safely be lifted
  • Emergency gas supply – Alternative independent breathing gas supply carried by a diver
  • Gas panel – Breathing gas distribution panel for surface-supplied diving
  • Gas reclaim system – System to recover used breathing gas and prepare it for re-use
  • Diver's attendant – Assistant for a diver
  • Support diver – Recreational diving equivalent of a stand-by diver
Clean-up
Improve lead section
  • Most articles need an improved lead section to serve as a suitable summary of their article's topic

Longer term goals
  • Get all Top importance articles to at least GA
  • Get all High importance articles to at least B-class
  • Get all Mid importance articles to at least C-class.
  • Get all the others to at least start class. Where this is impossible or inappropriate, look into merging them into other articles.
  • Rationalise coverage of the subject by splitting. merging and creating articles as seems appropriate at the time, and creating redirects wherever they will be useful.
  • Maintain and develop the navbox to facilitate finding useful articles within the project.
  • Build up the Portal:Underwater diving so that anyone can find any reasonably important information on the subject. This is in abeyance until the purpose of portals has been defined sufficiently to be worth the effort.
