[edit] 1st deletion debate, October 2004

On 20 October 2004, this article was nominated for deletion. The result was ambiguous. A majority favored deletion however the discussion did not reach a clear consensus. By default, the article is kept. However, all the keep votes were qualified votes and included strong recommendations that the content of this article would be better covered as a section in a larger article such as Wing Commander ships. After the content is moved into the larger article, this article should be converted to a redirect. A record of the debate can be found at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/TCS Victory.

Considering the huge number and collective size of the articles in Category:Wing Commander spacecraft, I suspect this is an impractical policy to actually implement. Bryan 08:16, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Agreed with Bryan. This was in fact my first article on Wikipedia and it was nominated for deletion about an hour after its creation. This was i my opinion a bit drastic considering that there are a lot of articles about far more minor ships in the Wing Commander universe. Although most of the votes were delete (arguing fancruft or similar), it survived the vote by not reaching the two thirds majority for deletion. Many seem to have voted merge (but thankyou to for not voting delete) without checking the size of the category. Maybe they would have voted keep had they seen this. However, if merging is desperately needed, merging this into a Wing Commander carriers article might be a more sensible undertaking. 129.177.61.124 08:52, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] 2nd deletion debate, September 2005

[edit] The Vfd debate

TCS Victory

TCS Victory was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was MERGE into as yet uncreated article. 8 votes to delete, 4 votes to merge, 2 votes to keep or merge. As there is not a sufficiently strong consensus for deletion, the votes to merge will control. This listing will remain until a consensus is reached regarding where to merge the content, or someone familiar with the topic takes the initiative. Postdlf 07:59, 26 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Fictional Ship from a computer game. Let's draw the line somewhere. -- Ferkelparade π 13:08, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete. Fan-cruft. jni 13:22, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: Fan trivia. Geogre 14:54, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Non-notable. Nadavspi 15:07, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, but perhaps merge all Wing Commander ships into one article. - SimonP 16:52, Oct 20, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Subtrivial fancruft. Another one for the fan sites. Wile E. Heresiarch 18:21, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • MERGE all Wing Commander ships into a Wing Commander ships article, all Wing Commander ship classes into a Wing Commander ship classes article, all Wing Commander spacefighters into a Wing Commander fighters article, all Wing Commander characters into Wing Commander major characters, Wing Commander semi-major characters, Wing Commander minor characters, Wing Commander incidental characters articles. Merge any Starlancer and Freelancer articles into Wing Commander (game) as well, as they seem to list Privateer 2 as a Wing Commander game, they should also have Starlancer and Freelancer. It seems like propaganda from the Wing Commander nazis though (see http://www.wcnews.com ). The articles need to be categorized into fictional spaceships, etc ... 132.205.15.4 18:27, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

o Wing Commander nazis make fan-cruft as hardcore as trekkies and wookies. 132.205.15.4 18:27, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete. Fancruft. We do NOT want categories for fancrufty things. --Improv 20:17, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

o Category:Fictional spacecraft, there's your fancrufty category for ya 132.205.15.42 03:04, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete. Fancruft, not significant. Average Earthman 08:14, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep or merge into some Wing Commander ships article —siroχo 10:01, Oct 21, 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge into Wing Commander ships or similar. It's just as valid as Star Trek ships and probably of as much interest to the general public as articles are obscure U.S. Navy ships, and I have warm, fuzzy feelings about Wing Commander, but there just isn't enough information about these ships to really merit separate articles. Aranel ("Sarah") 01:10, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge into existing Wing commander video game article and let the game fans create a separate ship article later if they wish. --AlainV 02:02, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge into any related Wing commander article. Jayjg 16:36, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Fancruft. GRider 22:31, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • I have no opinion on what to do with this particular article, since it looks like it's part of a large amount of Wing Commander trivia. I would however like to register my opinion that the material has little or no encyclopedic value. Isomorphic 23:44, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
