:Disagree. This article here is about the miniature/figurine, a real-world MWDA product in its own right. The ''[[Aurora]]'' article is about the class. These are very different subjects, imho. The fact that the two articles are built around different infoboxes already goes to show these should be separate articles.

Merge?

I propose that this page be merged with the main Aurora article as a section of its own rather than a stand alone article.--Dmon (talk) 23:23, 6 July 2019 (EDT)

Disagree. This article here is about the miniature/figurine, a real-world MWDA product in its own right. The Aurora article is about the class. These are very different subjects, imho. The fact that the two articles are built around different infoboxes already goes to show these should be separate articles. Frabby (talk) 15:36, 7 July 2019 (EDT)

Not quite sure what you're saying, sorry. To rehash my argument why this can (should) be two articles, one article is about a physical product (the miniature) while the other is about an in-universe concept (the ship class). Merging these could be confusing.
Then again, I've been guilty of at least one such combo article myself: Cargo Queen. To shore up my argument, the Cargo Queen scenario and the eponymous vessel are apocryphal and barely notable, so a single article seemed in order. A DropShip class and a physical product, on the other hand, are both relatively high-profile articles which is why I feel they should remain separate articles.
Ultimately I don't feel strongly on the matter so if you go and merge the articles, I won't revert it. Frabby (talk) 03:14, 8 July 2019 (EDT)
