MV Linga

Does not meet WP:GNG or any other notability guidelines. Only references are primary. No independent coverage online. Clear friend  a  💬  01:10, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

 * There aren't many references that can be used other the primary sources from the owner/operator of the vessel, there is also this one though: https://www.faktaomfartyg.se/linga_2002.htm
 * I don't understand how MV Linga is the only Shetland Islands Council ferry article that has been getting brought up for editor issues, despite it being the same layout and similar text style to the rest of the ferry articles that I have made.
 * It would also be better to be more explicit with which changes would be good as it doesn't make sense that you're not allowed to make an article using references to the owners website. ZetShip (talk) 13:01, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

 * Redirect to SIC Ferries. The most applicable guideline appears to be WP:NVEHICLES, which is an essay, and anyway pretty much defaults to WP:GNG for individual vehicles.  Thus secondary sourcing beyond database entries would be needed here.  Unfortunately the most I can find is a fairly routine news source .  I'd be happy to be proven wrong, but unless more sources come up - such as an offline news feature on the vessel - as an WP:ATD I recommend redirect to SIC Ferries.

 * Redirect to SIC Ferries. I have carried out an extensive search of news databases and have been unable to locate any coverage around the time of its construction which might help to meet GNG. All recent coverage is WP:ROUTINE. Triptothecottage (talk) 09:43, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
