The result was delete. Clear consensus that this is, indeed, the cruftiest of fancruft. Sandstein 09:34, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

This information is fitting to the Wiki on The Matrix, but not to Wikipedia. There is no indication that the Matrix vehicles, as a group, are notable and the entire thing is WP:OR. While the Nebuchadnezzar as the hero's ship does seem to have significantly more mentions in sources, its mention in this article is entirely unsourced plot summary and a new article would have to be created.

- Delete in slow motion with lots of bullets lazily passing through the air. Also fancruft. Clarityfiend (talk) 10:52, 26 March 2018 (UTC)
- Delete as cruft then proffer to Wikia in an old sardine tin under some greenish lighting. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 11:33, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

- Delete given the above discussion. Falls under WP:FANCRUFT in my opinion. Aoba47 (talk) 19:32, 26 March 2018 (UTC)
- My vote is based on my belief that it does not have enough coverage in reliable, third-party sources to satisfy notability standards/policies. Aoba47 (talk) 20:05, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

- I would encourage editors citing WP:FANCRUFT to read what it actually says about use in AfDs. Specifically, no one but the nominator has actually advanced a policy-based deletion rationale. The rest of you may think you have, but taking the time to just call it "OR/no RS" rather than an arguably pejorative shortcut would improve the quality of the discourse.

- Comment there actually is an article on the Nebuchadnezzar (The Matrix). While a good portion of this article is unsourced fancruft (of the sort "this ship was once mentioned in the online game"), as long as there are two or three ships with some sourcing outside of primary sources, this should still be kept as an article. I haven't found anything to justify a keep vote, though. power~enwiki (π, ν) 01:31, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
- The Nebuchadnezzar is the most well known craft in the series by a long shot, though. I kind of doubt any of the other ones have notability. I might be wrong, but even if I am, the article should be started over from scratch and only after said articles are created and fleshed out.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 12:16, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
