John (1803 ship)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable ship; It existed and sank, that's all there is to it. Even if there were historical records that supported its existence other than this one book, it probably still wouldn't pass gng. 💵Money💵emoji💵Talk 18:53, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment, found a mention here (4th para.) but more needed. Coolabahapple (talk) 05:31, 1 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete -- Completely NN. There were 1000s of ships.  We cannot have an article on every one, just because it happens to be listed in some book, any more than we could allow one on all the 1000s of grantees of the German WWII Knight's Cross.  Peterkingiron (talk) 17:29, 1 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as per nomination - not alot more to be said. Bungle (talk • contribs) 10:55, 2 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - a 30 ton sealing sloop with a crew of 5. I did find this -, but it seems most of what is out there is a short blurb on the report. What does possibly give me pause is this being early in Australia's European colonization history - but I don't see the sources here.Icewhiz (talk) 11:23, 3 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - loss covered in List of shipwrecks in 1806. Mjroots (talk) 15:36, 3 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Merge and delete to List of shipwrecks in 1806. Content already in this article to be expanded from merge of currently separate content. Not sufficiently notable in its own right for a separate article. Note delete rather than redirect due to ambiguation of John (ship). There are many such ships over the years. (If not delete then it would need some non trivial work to create the disambiguation page for the many many such named marine vessels.) Aoziwe (talk) 07:48, 7 April 2018 (UTC)
