Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/S.S. Aqua

 This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was ambiguous.

Several people voted "merge and redirect" but gave no indication where this should or could redirect to. The best recommendation was to move it to the Wikibooks section for Pokemon but apparently that's not an option yet. Had I seen this earlier, I would have voted to consider this an unexpandable stub (by which I mean that the only possible expansions would have broken the rule that "Wikipedia is not a gameguide"). I am going to exercise my discretion and delete this for now. If someone can determine an appropriate redirect, please do so. If you need help restoring it in order to move it to Wikibooks when that's ready, please contact me. Rossami (talk) 08:51, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Are oceanliners from Pokémon-related video games inherently noteworthy and encyclopedic? If not, what makes this one in particular notable and worthy of inclusion on Wikipedia? GRider\talk 19:41, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Okay. There have been a number of very short and seemingly trivial Pokarticles on the VfD list lately. Would you think it a good idea to set up a 'grouped discussion' on all of them, similar to those on Maltese nobility and Local politicians?
 * Merge or keep "fancruft". 22:22, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect with the Pokemon article for the games where it appears (please tell me that there's one article for Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal and not three...) -- Antaeus Feldspar 00:25, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * There are two: Pokémon Gold and Silver and Pokémon Crystal. If redirects are cheap, does this article merit a redirection?  Or would a merge and delete be sufficient?  GRider\talk 00:33, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, not notable, pokemon fancruft. Megan1967 01:34, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment, most of the stuff here would be good material for Pokémon (that's why the wikibook was created in the first place - the wikibooks is first and foremost a game guide and only a game guide). Again, as the guy in charge of Pokémon, the guide isn't ready for it yet.  Anything that looks remotely game-guidey could be moved over and somehow integrated... kelvSYC 18:18, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * ... as of this stuff, delete. It's not of too much importance being here. kelvSYC 19:20, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. The Recycling Troll 09:54, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
