The result was Keep (non-admin closure), Bold NAC. Each article here has been merged into List of spacecraft from the Space Odyssey series, and the refs have been cleaned up. No notability problem now. Protonk (talk) 02:50, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Leonov (fictional spacecraft) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)

Non-notable vehicle from the 2001: A Space Odyssey series. Clarityfiend (talk) 03:20, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am also nominating the following related pages for the same reason:

Orion III spaceplane (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Aries Ib (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

• Keep Major plot elements of the film, with what appear to be real-world texts discussing them as references to support the claims of notability. Alansohn (talk) 04:24, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy Keep per above. If we delete this, we may as well get rid of HAL-9000, and that's just absurd. 206.116.63.240 (talk) 05:01, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete and merge to main article. Separate pages for fictional characters etc are only worthwhile if they have had a life outside their original context, otherwise it's just proliferation. --Kleinzach 06:01, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep but as an editorial matter, they would be much better merged into a List of spacecraft from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Protonk (talk) 06:24, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge and redirect to List of spacecraft from 2001: A Space Odyssey, with the exception of the space station and Orion III, both of which have received commentary about both the predictive value and the production conundrums. --Dhartung | Talk 07:00, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge all into a new section of 2001: A Space Odyssey (film), or (because that article is rather long already) create List of spacecrafts from 2001: A Space Odyssey. These spacecraft articles are all poor and use the same blanket external links, but I guess something decent can be still made out of them (due to the prominence of the film), just not as half a dozen fancrufty perma-stubs. – sgeureka ^t•c 08:10, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep or Merge but not to 2001: A Space Odyssey. The Leonov does *not* appear in 2001, it appears in _2010_. The list should therefore be named List of spacecraft from the Space Odyssey series, per the fictional universe article Space Odyssey. 70.55.85.143 (talk) 11:39, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Boldly merged. I merged all of the content (and cleaned up the references) into List of spacecraft from the Space Odyssey series. Discovery One retains her article but has an entry in the list. Other articles redirect to the list now. I'll wait a while for someone to object or close this AfD as moot before closing it myself. Protonk (talk) 18:37, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
