USS SC-715

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No indication of significance - what makes this vessel notable enough to have a page in an encyclopedia? Gbawden (talk) 06:49, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete I can't find any reliable sources. Notability (vehicles) is only an essay (and apparently a ship is a vehicle) but it doesn't offer any reason for this to be notable: large ships may be notable, small vessels generally not. --Colapeninsula (talk) 10:13, 19 February 2013 (UTC}
 * That was fast.... These ships are the size of the submarines they were used against. Not sure what the requirement is for notability... They had crew of 30-35 and operated as convoy escorts as well as littoral defense ships. They are also the last series of wooden ships used by the US navy.

 * Keep. Commissioned vessels of a national military force are notable, per longstanding WP:CONSENSUS and precedent at AfD, and this was a commissioned vessel of the United States Navy. NavSource is considered a reliable source, I believe, and the Coast Guard certainly is. - The Bushranger One ping only 21:39, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep. All commissioned ships are noteable. Regards Newm30 (talk) 23:16, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. Per Bushranger's well stated case. EricSerge (talk) 00:31, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. Commissioned vessels are notable. Manxruler (talk) 01:06, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep as per Bushranger. More sources would be lovely, sure, but the case for notability is clear. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 16:10, 20 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Comment She's been named Cape Pine for over 60 years, is still named that, and still in service, so the article is at the wrong title. -- 65.92.180.137 (talk) 00:41, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep commisioned ship as explained by The Bushranger.--Staberinde (talk) 12:00, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
