[edit] Raoul Courvosier II-class

Raoul Courvosier II-class (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

The only word for this is cruft. It is so entirely in-universe that it does not even tell us which fictional universe it is set in. Suitable for a specialised Wiki about that particular universe, but not for Wikipedia, per WP:N and WP:WAF. JohnCD (talk) 19:32, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
I am also including in this nomination the following similar articles:

Indefatigable-class (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Covington-class (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Jason Alvarez-class (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Invictus-class (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Reliant-class (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

• Delete, reluctantly, but support creation of sourced, real-world content about fictional universes. Given that these have no sourcing at all and minimal information, writing quality content about the subject matter would be no harder starting from scratch. These are apparently from the "Honorverse", according to "What links here". Matthew Brown (Morven) (T:C) 19:50, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

• I've Rewritten it extensively to remove in-universe style/content and wikify. Citations wouldn't hurt, but they're findable. Note that this only applies to the main article - I support Deletion for the others, they're pure cruft. Eithin (talk) 22:40, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

• Delete all (at all costs, for HH fans) as craftcruft. Clarityfiend (talk) 23:17, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
• Merge ot Spacecraft in the Honorverse 70.55.84.89 (talk) 04:52, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
• At least it isn't full of 'we can assume' and '(Note: At this time, the SLN should be considered 2nd class. They don't have anywhere near the firepower represented by a pod-laying ship. This could be subject to change if the SLN woke up and smelled the proverbial coffee.)' nonsense as one of them is. I was about to go for Merge to Spacecraft in the Honorverse if they aren't already covered there. But I did a web search on Raoul Courvosier II and lo and behold, it's already covered in Wikipedia in Grayson Space Navy as are the Covington and Jason Alvarez classes, so by all means, Delete all. Indefatitable is in the Spacecraft in the Honorverse article, and Invictus and Reliant in the Royal Manticoran Navy article. There's no excuse for these separate articles.--Doug Weller (talk) 18:52, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
