Draft:List of maritime science fiction works


It has been found that this is not a genre in multiple discussions. There is a huge hill for this page to ever be accepted into mainspace. See the talkpage please. Legacypac (talk) 09:37, 17 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep It's a small subgenre, but no less valid for that. Andy Dingley (talk) 09:51, 17 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep, a good page and subgenre waiting for recognition, the concept is spot-on and I'm surprised that, as a draft nonetheless, it would even be considered for deletion. The External links and other data on the page indicate that it is already a genre or sub-genre, so there doesn't seems a problem there, and I really can't figure out why editors would want to keep the page out of visible space.

 * I refer everyone to the talkpage and these links to relevent discussions Articles_for_deletion/Maritime_science_fiction, Articles for deletion/List of maritime science fiction media, Deletion_review/Log/2017_May_24, Categories_for_discussion/Log/2016_August_1. The core problem is this is a setting, and not effort. a category of works discussed in RS. Given all the input previously and that this draft has become stale it's time to end this Legacypac (talk) 17:05, 17 February 2018 (UTC)
 * The only discussion and decision that you list above which concerns the draft page resulted in keeping the draft page. So by "it's time to end this" may I suggest that agreement has already been made to keep the draft if it is being worked on. I am one of the minor editors who have added a few work titles, and I should flesh them out a bit with descriptors, and I personally see the value of the page (probably under a different title, 'Underwater science fiction' seems more accurate as a descriptor, and the External links focus on it as a name). There have been sources added, I believe, since the major discussions you list above. I'd expect this incomplete draft, which does need working on, will at some point graduate to visible space. Until then, maybe editors can assist in adding to or otherwise editing the draft. Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 20:16, 17 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. suggesteddeletion reason does not seem to be applicable, as it is being worked on. Whether it will ultimately be acceptable can better be decided as a mainspace afd.  DGG ( talk ) 02:38, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
