List of ship decommissionings in 1801

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

A 'list' of 1 redlinked ship of unknown size or importance, sourced to a website where the full entry reads "AGGERSHUS, cavalry pram (1786-1801)". Unlikely that "ship decommissionings in 1801" is a notable topic on its own, so far we have served the readers this extremely unsatisfactory page for 4 years, time to put an end to it.

Also nominated are:
 * List of ship decommissionings in 1807
 * List of ship decommissionings in 1811

I have added two other pages, for 1807 and 1811, to the nom. These three seem to be the only pages before 1860 we have for this. The two I added have two and one entries similar to the one above (from the same website), and both so much care has gone into the creation, and so much interest has there been from later readers/editors, that in both cases the text on the pages is about commissionings, not decommissionings, e.g. "In cases where no official commissioning ceremony was held, the date of service entry may be used instead."

 * Comment, having looked through quite a few of these List of ship decommissionings in YEAR articles, it would be even more appropriate to merge them by decade, or even by century as there are plenty more that feature just one ship. Ajf773 (talk) 09:54, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
 * The inclusion criteria seems rather vague. HMS Alban (1806) was a British ship captured by the Danes in 1810 and recaptured by the British in 1811. Its inclusion on the 1811 list is presumably because "capture" automatically means the ship is no longer commissioned by the previous navy. By the same logic, these lists should then include ships that were sunk, as they would also lose their commission. I'm not sure of the value these lists of decommissioning provide.

 * Delete Per nom. Even a category won't be enough. killer  bee    15:03, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete as unnecessary. The lists of ships by nation and by launch year are enough. Separately/unrelated to this !vote, if someone really wants this data, I assume it could be obtained through Wikidata. Ed [talk] [OMT] 19:11, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Seems like a pretty clear Delete per nom, however given the existence of many articles for years with more notable decommissionings such as 1946 it could be possible to have a page for decomissioning across each respective decade or perhaps even the entirety or half of the 19th century. In which case, a redirect could possibly be warranted. For example the article for 1872 has just one entry, if the ships could have an article created then it could work but unless that can be figured out my stance remains as Delete.
