USS Yamato (Star Trek)

 * — (View AfD)

Completing incomplete AfD by anon user -- non-notable ship, worthwhile content summarized on ship's class page; page should redirect to that class page. --EEMeltonIV 11:38, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * If that's what you want, withdraw this nomination, and make a redirect yourself. FrozenPurpleCube 04:35, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * No kidding. I've done it twice. This seems an apt way for this annoying anon user from complaining that it needs to go through AfD. So, *shrug* might as well. --EEMeltonIV 11:38, 11 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep, notable Star Trek ship, important appearances in two canon episodes. J I P  | Talk 06:41, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Someone had redirected this to Galaxy class starship, and then an anon came along and claimed that it had to be AFDed first. This is false.  Turn back into a redirect.  This is an incidental ship, and 90% of the content of the article is a plot summary of the episodes in which it is seen.  Very little is known about the ship per se, and what is known can be perfectly well covered in a single paragraph in Galaxy class starship.  Morwen - Talk 07:47, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as it stands, the article is completely unsourced. Iffen someone wants to fix that, I'm not opposed to keeping then .... WilyD 14:57, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: all encyclopedic content is already in Galaxy class starship and useless as a redirect (that's what USS Yamato is for) --Pak21 17:34, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete I agree with Pak21. The article also doesnt feature any additional sources or important information. Overall, poorly put together. Gan  fon  17:38, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per Pak21. --Daniel J. Leivick 21:05, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete or redirect, non-notable fictional ship, no substantial coverage in reliable real-world sources. Sandstein 22:41, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge this with Star Trek. BuickCenturyDriver 23:36, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Are you sure you don't mean with Galaxy class starship (Star Trek) or somesuch? There is no appropriate place in the Star Trek article for this to go.  Morwen - Talk 23:48, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge Has enough information for a page, first Galaxy ship to be destroyed/lost, canon in two episodes. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 63.167.255.231 (talk • contribs).
 * Keep Important enough for a page. Not every ship mentioned in Trek is as important, but this ship got two episodes with one basically fully devoted to her.--David Foster 20:40, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Galaxy class starship (Star Trek). There was no need for this article to be AfDed in the first place, as the AfD started due to a misinformed anon thinking an article has to be deleted before being made a redirect. Redxiv 21:44, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge or redirect, but do not keep. Not notable enough in its own right- a ship that appears in two episodes is pretty fancrufty, especially without reliable sources to establish notability. -- Kicking222 14:02, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge with Galaxy Class Starship as above. Kyaa the Catlord 00:07, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete/Merge - this is not good: little real-world assertion of notability, severe problems with WP:V, WP:OR, WP:FICT, WP:RS. Trekkiecruft and Gundamcruft? All the same to me. Moreschi Deletion! 14:42, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Galaxy class starship (Star Trek) per above comments. RFerreira 19:15, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I am a dedicated Trekkie/Trekker ( call me what you want ), but I do feel we're getting over-enthusiastic in our coverage of Trek. David Foster is wrong when he says that the ship is important because it appeared in a couple of episodes: no-one is ever going to say something like "Do you remember that episode with the USS Yamato ?". What they might say is "Do you remember the episode with Nagilum ?", and when they look for Nagilum here they'll get directed to the appropriate episode. We have to distinguish between the notable and the merely crufty. I'm in favour of a Merge and Redirect per RFerreira. WMMartin 16:19, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect - it's a notable ship - but not article worthy :-( thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771 12:37, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge - Notable, but for a whole page? Probably not, but include some facts about her in the merge. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.103.153.18 05:45, 18 January 2007 (UTC)|--65.103.153.18 05:45, 18 January 2007 (UTC)]] (65.103.153.18 05:45, 18 January 2007 (UTC)|talk]] • 65.103.153.18 05:45, 18 January 2007 (UTC)|contribs]]).
