Prometheus class starship

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable starship class, no independent third party sources. Toshio Yamaguchi (talk) 20:21, 12 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Message in a Bottle (Star Trek: Voyager) as the ship was a central plot element of the episode. -- Whpq (talk) 13:52, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Message in a Bottle (Star Trek: Voyager), the only episode in which it was a major plot element. Not notable in its own right. Robofish (talk) 14:41, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Message in a Bottle (Star Trek: Voyager) per arguments given by Whpq and Robofish. Toshio Yamaguchi (talk) 14:54, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Redirection is probably the correct ultimate fate of this article but some information might be smerged to the episode article or List of Starfleet starships ordered by class covering additional appearances of the model in the series finally and Star Trek Online.

 * Redirect as a compromise. Article lacks sufficient sources to WP:verify notability. Shooterwalker (talk) 13:05, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete: The fictional starship, as a subject, does not meet the general notability guideline and the content is a plot-only description of a fictional work. The two references within the article only support the opening paragraph, so the content has no verifiability which makes the article original research and an unneeded content fork. I favor deletion over a redirect since the starship participation in the series is quite limited, barely one episode and a couple of cameos, so I do not think that it is a plausible search term for the majority of Wikipedia users.

 * Redirect, to whichever of the two targets suggested above at editorial discretion (the initial choice being left to admin discretion based on this discussion), and allow to merge content at editorial discretion. Redirects are deleted only in extreme circumstances, there are no reasons to delete this redirect, as the guideline on deleting redirects makes clear; moreover redirects do not have to be "plausible search terms for the majority of WP users", such a high standard would ensure the deletion of the vast majority of redirects and is certainly not recognized by the community (there is a recognized "plausible search term" standard though, which this redirect satisfies). In addition, keeping the history of those pages can provide for the merging of appropriate encyclopedic information in the relevant articles. Cenarium (talk) 00:32, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
