The result was delete, based on consensus and because the article's WP:OR issues are not addressed in any depth here. Sandstein 20:58, 17 May 2008 (UTC) reply
The article fails WP:N in that it is about a fictional spaceship that only appears in 1 film ( Alien, not counting a deleted scene in Aliens in which it also appears). In any case there is no secondary source material provided to support commentary about the subject as required by WP:V, WP:NOR, and WP:RS. Its only substantial reference for most of its content is the film itself, and most of the article is blatant original research with much of it written from an in-universe perspective. All the pertinent information about the ship's concept & design is already included in Alien (film) (and Aliens (film) to a lesser extent) using real-world context in relation to the making of the film. Redirection is unnecessary as few articles link to it, and those that do mostly do so only through a template ( Template:Alien) so they would be easy to remove. -- IllaZilla ( talk) 19:58, 12 May 2008 (UTC) reply
