Indian Space Shuttle Programme
This page just gives the information about the already present RLV-TD and also some unverified reports about a "Hyper-Plane" project. The Indian Media Reports the RLV-TD as "Indian Space Shuttle". This could have led to confusion and therefore the creation of a separate page. I thus think this article is worth for deletion. M.srihari (talk) 06:31, 8 June 2015 (UTC)Srihari
Comment: RLV Technology Demonstration Programme, the target of one of the links above, is in an even worse state than the article under discussion. Maproom (talk) 07:34, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
- Yeah, That's true. Serious Repair work need to be done in that page. Perhaps, with some government Approved Data(http://www.isro.gov.in/technology-development-programmes/reusable-launch-vehicle-technology-demonstration-program-rlv-td).

- Comment I have no knowledge of an Indian space shuttle and so I have no !vote at this time. Note though that this is not a space shuttle, it is an article on a space shuttle, and it is not about a space shuttle itself, it's about the programme around one. So it does not matter if there was a space shuttle or not, there can still be a an article about it. If "Let's build a space shuttle" became a topic of debate in the Indian parliament or ISRO, then that's enough for an article. If it then turned into no more than a political scandal (with no aerospace work at all), but maybe some bribery or pork-barrelling (these things happen a lot around large government programs) then it could still be a notable topic.

- Merge to RLV Technology Demonstration Programme, it one and the same. Don't need two redundant articles. N2e (talk) 17:41, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
- Merge the two articles since there's a bit of non-overlapping content, once that's done, the title should be that of this article since this is the more generic name while the other is project specific. —SpacemanSpiff 19:06, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
- Merge the two articles. No reason for essentially redundant articles, imo. -Fnlayson (talk) 21:13, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
- Delete As non-notable; effectively something that never actually happened. Imperatrix Mundi 10:37, 10 June 2015 (UTC)]
- Delete Was never more than a concept, thoroughly fails ]
- Merge as some users suggested because the program itself is not notable. This topic is closely related to "Avatar" project and RLV-TD, so it is better to merge. Supdiop talk 10:53, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
- Merge; this article is about something entirely theoretical, but still possibly contains some nuggets of information—not enough for an article, but perhaps for a section of an article, such as noted above. Or, as SpacemanSpiff suggested, merge RLV Technology with this article. --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 22:30, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

- Comment This page is a duplicate of an entry in the the World Heritage Encyclopedia: INDIAN SPACE SHUTTLE PROGRAMME. Which is released under CC by SA. I don't know enough to say if there is new content here, main new thing is suggestion "In the end of 1980s and beginning of 1990s India had plans to develop the small Space Shuttle named Hyperplane that would to be orbited by non-reusable launchers." Can't find any evidence yet in a google search that it did. If it did, then presumably not a major initiative. If that's so, I'd go with merge, and mention this in one of the other articles. If it didn't, then there doesn't seem to be any new content here at all. Users may search for "Indian Space Shuttle Program" - so I wonder if a redirect might be better than a delete if there is nothing to preserve. Robert Walker (talk) 03:29, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
- Comment Note though that this page is an entry in Template:Indian space programmeso if decision is made that it is no longer needed, a redirect would be better than a delete, or that template should be edited.
- Comment Another thought - this title is better than the other two as a general article on the Indian space shuttle program, as it covers them both rather than just one or the other project. Maybe this article should be edited to summarize the other two projects, plus any information about a previous space shuttle plan if there was one? Basically take the ledes of the other two articles and merge them back into this one. They are all rather "stubs" - depending on some enthusiast with detailedd knowledge of the Indian human spaceflight program to expand them. So maybe we should just keep them all separate but improve this one in that way... Robert Walker (talk) 03:45, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Robertinventor:: World Heritage Encyclopaedia is a mirror of our article(s). A merge and using this title does appear to be the best option.—SpacemanSpiff 04:54, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
Comment I think the name "Indian Space Shuttle" is a media buff. Using it as the name of a page or a section might be confusing as the name space shuttle belongs to that of US RLV. So, naming the section as Indian TSTO might be helpful.Mao Martin (talk) 05:34, 1 July 2015 (UTC)Maoblock evasion- Merge with RLV Technology Demonstration Programme, which is not a great article, but if the two concepts are one and the same, that other title is more neutral.
