 * A prior attempt to write a space trade article was userfied to User:Nixer/Space trade as a result of this deletion review. It's better than this rubbish, not least because it attempts to work from sources.  Efforts should be devoted to improving that to the point where it can be brought back to the main article namespace.  This article is just junk. Uncle G 11:16, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I think that the User:Nixer/Space trade article needs some work on the science fiction section and should be brought in as the main article to replace this one that is up for deletion.--Craig Mayhew 21:00, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Swap with User:Nixer/Space trade--Nixer 09:27, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
 * The proposed page to swap still seems to violate WP:NOT a crystal ball, but if the article was solely about space trade in fiction, I would be okay with it. But with what exists right now, I still say delete. Natalie 15:25, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Swapwith User:Nixer/Space trade and add to the section on Space trade in science fiction. This has always been a big topic in science fiction: Star Wars and the writings of Andre Norton, Robert Heinlein and countless others. Some technology beyond rocket ships would be needed for it to be economical to bring back anything from other places in the solar system. I doubt the Apollo Program could have brought back even gold from the moon economically. Edison 19:29, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
