Spacecraft in Red Dwarf

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article is a list of in-universe minutia. These are details irrelevant to the casual reader, more suited to Fandom or another fan wiki. While not currently even present in this article, any details on the modeling the ships could easily fit inside Red Dwarf. I don't think there is any argument to describe this as a necessary fork. The only one that could be described as important to the series would be the main ship, but that does not need more than a small paragraph unless there is real world information somewhere out there. The rest of the information is way too in-depth, and it does not need to be merged. TTN (talk) 14:14, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete- I like Red Dwarf, but this really is excessive fancruft. Fortunately there are sites like Wikia to take elaborate, but ultimately unencyclopedic, labours of love. Reyk YO! 18:19, 25 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. 99% of these fan lists have to go, and probably the other 1% too. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:56, 25 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep as a classic case of deletioncruft. This encyclopedic content is definitely worthy of inclusion on Wikipedia.  --199.123.13.2 (talk) 21:34, 25 November 2019 (UTC)  blocked sock Reyk YO! 06:16, 26 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep. No less appropriate for Wikipedia than lists of minor characters in television series, of which there are hundreds. Trimming might be required of the excess detail, but it's still not too fancrufty a list. If the consensus is to delete, then merging an abridged form into the main article would be worthwhile. Grutness... wha?   02:15, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
 * If ships equate to the same importance as characters, what is the cut off point? When is something too trivial to cover in detail? TTN (talk) 15:01, 1 December 2019 (UTC)
