No HMS Eglinton (1916) page in Wikipedia. No need to have a disam page for HMS Eglinton.  CASSIOPEIA(talk) 13:02, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

*Comment and Withdraw-. Greetings. I have not seen anywhere in wikipedia pointed to that, do share if I miss it. However, user:Lyndaship has just created HMS Eglinton (1916), for such I will withdraw the nomination.  CASSIOPEIA(talk) 14:13, 22 February 2018 (UTC)


 * I'm relatively inexperienced so please forgive and correct me if I am doing anything wrong. I'm a bit surprised that you have marked the page I have just created for HMS Eglinton for deletion. There are hundreds of similar pages on wikipedia when the same name has been used for more than one ship. It's a pretty essential tool for the user who is searching for a ship name to see that it could be one of two or more ships. Currently yes only one of the ships has a wikipedia entry but the other meets the notability criteria and will be created in time making the page I created essentialLyndaship (talk) 13:08, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

Can someone please add the Ships category to relevant categories. A warship is nothing to do with Transportation Lyndaship (talk) 13:16, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep Yet another ship index page in which it is irrelevant if the other articles have been written yet.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 13:48, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

 * It's really just a matter of thinking things through. Ship names are often reused, so we like to preemptively build ship index pages that cover all the ships with that name, even before the articles are written.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 14:30, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
 * , I understand your thinking, but if this is use in the same way as other subjects that would be thousands of such disam pages are created, for the core of pages in Wikipedia based on nobility has lost it merit and lost its place just as now thousand of pages created and immediately redirected to a related/common pages in Wikipedia where none of them meeting GNG and WP:RS based on premptive and or "if" and "when" or "hope" when one day they become notable. That makes Wikipedia like a directory or depository which what Wikipedia is not. Anyway, I am happy Lydaship has created the page and all is good now.
