Prowler (Farscape)

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

In-universe fan page. No claim to outside notability for this ship type. Almost reads like a "how to" pilot it. Google finds plenty of fan pages that mention it, most are indirect.. SolidPlaid 03:49, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - Major plot device in a popular TV Series. - Fosnez 04:03, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - Please refer to Articles for deletion/Rantath Flux for discussion of this topic - Fosnez 04:11, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - If it is so major, where are the citations? Just how popular is the TV series? Having an avid fan base that does a lot of Wikipedia editing isn't a convincing argument. I personally could be swayed by citations along these lines, and will cheerfully withdraw these nominations if they are forthcoming. SolidPlaid 04:20, 21 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete per the reasoning I gave in the discussion linked above. Basically, OR, fancruft, no way to verify a bit of it, etc. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 04:24, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge any salvageable content into Peacekeeper (Farscape) (where it already gets a mention), or into a new article that covers the various ship types in the Farscape universe. Not really deserving of its own article. PC78 12:43, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable fictional transport. Notability is not inherited, unless demonstrated by independent secondary sources. --Gavin Collins 12:57, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Science fiction-related deletions.   --Gavin Collins 12:57, 21 September 2007 (UTC)--
 * Delete Non-notable fanboy stuff. Not encyclopedic. MarkBul 16:25, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Trim and merge to Spaceships on Farscape with Moya (Farscape), Command Carrier, Talyn, Farscape One, and maybe some others. This issue should really have been addressed in a talkpage first. mergeto also exists for a reason. Per WP:FICT, Non-notable information should be deleted only when all other options have been exhausted. Going directly to AfD was IMO too bold. – sgeureka t•c 07:24, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as the article's subject fails to meet notability standards through significant coverage from reliable sources. Also, per WP:WAF, this article fails to provide a real-world perspective of the subject, providing solely in-universe information. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 18:59, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Note to closing admin. If (as seems likely) the outcome of this debate is to delete, can a redirect be created to Peacekeeper (Farscape)? PC78 01:56, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
 * We shouldn't have a problem doing that, so long as the article isn't salted. Ichormosquito 20:40, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
