Heart of the Ocean

Is a prop used in Titanic really worthy of its own article? This article barely has any references and most of the page just consists of its usage within the movie. I would say a redirect to the Titanic movie page perhaps. TRLIJC19  (  talk  ) 23:29, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep Hard to believe that a movie prop could be notable, but the six references to reliable sources, some of which provide quite significant coverage of this item, indicate that it is. Alessandra Napolitano (talk) 01:14, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep It's a prominent movie prop from the highest grossing film of it's decade; it's not at all surprising to me that there's enough backstory and RS commentary to sustain an article (i.e., meet the GNG). This actually goes from the origin, through parodies in popular culture... not at all a non-encyclopedic approach to the topic. Jclemens (talk) 06:54, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep Iconic prop from a notable film. Stating "barely has any references" seems more a decent reason to add them through regular editing if needed, than one to delete. We have no problem on WIkipedia with articles on fictional elements, as notability is found through multiple availability of sources addressing a topic directly and in detail, and not on whether the topic so covered is fictional or not. And while a merge and redirect is sometimes suitable for some such, a merge that overburdens a target is not.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 07:05, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
