Hokule'a class starship, Mediterranean class starship, Chimera class starship and Andromeda class starship
[edit]A page for a Star Trek starship class that never appeared on screen and was never even mentioned in any episode. AlistairMcMillan 01:29, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Would seem to be canonical, has entry on ST's official site. According to that, it was in the TNG episode "Datalore". Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 02:06, May 13, 2005 (UTC)
- Never seen on screen and never mentioned. A starship was mentioned in that episode that fans have now decided is Hokule'a class. That is all. AlistairMcMillan 02:41, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- BTW The website content appears to be based on The Star Trek Encyclopedia, which itself is not considered canon.
- Keep. The entry matches other entries in the Star Trek area, though as yet is unlinked in the list of star trek ship classes article. It's brief, but if within Star Trek canon, might as well be kept. EvilPhoenix
- It isn't canon. AlistairMcMillan 02:42, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge and redirect to some kind of list of minor Star Trek starship classes. RJFJR 02:23, May 13, 2005 (UTC)
- Merge all minor Trek ships. More useful to users that way anyway. -- BDAbramson thimk 02:26, 2005 May 13 (UTC)
- Delete as fanfic, as Alistair suggests. Radiant_* 08:54, May 13, 2005 (UTC)

- Comment - "Canon" is being used in a different context, here; it's mentioned in published works (so it's not fanfic), but those works aren't strictly considered canon by ST fans. It's a fine difference, but it keeps these from being fanfiction. A Man In Black 09:44, 14 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge to List of Starfleet ship classes, per WP:FICT. No significance outside of fictional milieu, basically minor trivia from non-canonical sources. Barno 18:25, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge with List of Starfleet ship classes, as per WP:FICT. --Carnildo 19:20, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge as recommended by Carnildo. →Iñgōlemo← talk 04:41, 2005 May 18 (UTC)
