Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/MV Global Mercy
From |TOOSOON, ''{{tq|For an article to be created, its subject should be wikipedia:V|verifiably wikipedia:N|notable due to its discussion in sufficient wikipedia:RS|independent secondary reliable sources. Sometimes, a topic may appear obviously notable to you, but there may not be enough independent coverage of it to confirm that. In such cases, it may simply be '''too soon''' to create the article. This applies to... '''new products''' and any other topics about which facts have only recently emerged or are still emerging.}}'' (Emphasis added by me) So, our question is, is this ship a "new product", since it itself did not previously exist? Some may see that as a stretch, but I feel that it's a literal interpretation and is correct, which is why I originally applied TOOSOON in tagging the article PROD. However, established precedent for articles such as this shows that the "fitting out" stage is not necessarily too soon to create an article about a vessel of this size. So, recognizing that while disagreeing with it personally, I will remain neutral on this discussion
