Merge or split?[edit]

Almost all the content in AS-28 is present in Priz class. The AS-28 article should probably be merged into Priz class to prevent duplication and the articles getting out of sync. There are less than 5 of these small (3-6 man) vessels so even if they all were involved in notable events they could be covered in the Priz class article.

Done. Dan100 (Talk) 19:55, August 5, 2005 (UTC)

This then leaves the main page linking to two identical articles, which seems kind of weird to me. C14 20:01, 5 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. - Banyan Tree 20:07, 5 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, the accident should be at AS-28 ***NOT*** Priz class!69.156.19.242 03:04, 6 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

For why this article was restored, see Talk:Priz class.--Pharos 08:38, 6 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The accident should sit at AS-28, the accident involves AS-28, not every Priz class sub. It's also the most significant of the two (Priz vs AS-28), and the one that the various news services are using as a label for the sub, since it is about the AS-28 and NOT the Priz class. 69.156.19.242 03:06, 6 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I would rather have one long stub than two just graduated sub-stubs. All the info on Priz class was being repeated at AS-28 to give it some context, while anyone typing in "Priz" and ending up at Priz class right now is looking for AS-28. They should stay in one article. - Banyan Tree 03:25, 6 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This is a developing event and it shouldn't be surprising that AS-28 was still a stub. There should anyway be one main, bolded, directly relevant article to point to on ITN. So I support separating it back out again.--Pharos 06:41, 6 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Ditto what Pharos wrote. Split --Barista | a/k/a マイケル | T/C 07:35, 6 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree. We now have two even smaller stubs, both with information out of sync of one-another. Dan100 (Talk) 12:25, August 6, 2005 (UTC)

Well, there was only one contributor at Talk:AS-28 not represented here who favors a split. Category:Submarine accidents exists for a reason, to represent notable vessels ships involved in notable accidents. If the AS-28 is notable enough to be the subject of an ITN blurb, it is certainly notable enough for its own article--Pharos 12:39, 6 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Re-split: There needn't be much mention of the accident in the Priz article at all, for those concerned about de-synching. -The Tom 15:26, 6 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
