Never finished. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 17:51, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

This AFD is directly related to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/USS Mondamin (1864), about another ship in the class, an AFD opened same day by same editor. --doncram 14:57, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

• Merge all the cancelled cancelled ships at Template:Contoocook class sloop/frigate to a new article on the class, since some ships of the class were in fact buit. ---- Patar knight - ^chat/_{contributions} 20:33, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

• Merge/redirect: agree that merging and redirecting to a class article is probably the best approach for the cancelled vessels of this class. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 07:47, 11 June 2017 (UTC)
• I would have said delete, but will go along with the proposal to redirect to a list article on the class. If I understand the article correctly, not only was the ship not finished, but probably never started. Peterkingiron (talk) 20:46, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

• Merge. As I said at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/USS Mondamin (1864), i created Contoocook class sloop/frigate to serve as a merge target. This is the desired "list-article" which lists the ships in the class. In fact I started it as a section in the USS Contoocook (1864) article; it can be broken out or not according to editors there. --doncram 14:57, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
• Redirect to the class page - this is standard practice unless the cancelled ship is otherwise notable (see for instance Japanese battleship Tosa), which is not the case here. Parsecboy (talk) 09:41, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
