The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to List of ships attacked by Somali pirates in 2009#April. There is a consensus that this doesn't merit a standalone article, but merging/redirecting is preferable per WP:PRESERVE. – Joe (talk) 14:21, 5 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty classic WP:NOTNEWS breach. A lot of ships were seized around this time and most, including Irene, received a brief flutter of attention before that dried up. Madness ^Darkness 11:43, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete As above, per WP:NOTNEWS. No recent mentions as far as I can tell. Nwlaw63 (talk) 14:49, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete without prejudice to re-creation - A ship of this size should be notable enough to sustain an article, subject to WP:V by WP:RS. Not enough information available in article to enable expansion at the moment. Mjroots (talk) 14:26, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment The vessel may be Irene EM, IMO number: 7433593, per this source. Mjroots (talk) 14:32, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
