How trivial is this? A "fictional spacecraft" that appears in "just a few scenes in this pilot episode" of Space: 1999. Clarityfiend (talk) 12:15, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related pages because they too appear in only one or two episodes:

 * Comment: I can't really argue against this nomination, since none of these vehicles is notable in their own right. One thing that the Space: 1999 topic currently lacks, however, is a list of spacecraft (in the style of List of spacecraft from the Space Odyssey series, etc.). If I have time, I'll see about creating one and merging in some of the content from these separate articles. A fair amount of the purely in-universe material could be either dropped entirely or transferred to the relevant episode pages, which are well-sourced. The titles could then be redirected to the list page as a possible alternative to deletion.  Super Mario  Man  22:35, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Merge selectively to make a section in Space: 1999. The template for this series suggests that WP has a grossly excessive number of articles on this already.  In the past we have had articles on characters in TV series, but these usually get merged back to the article on the series or a single article on the characters.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
