Talk:Hotelship

Wrong lemma, the correct word is Ship Hotel. "Hotelship" was created by a German copying the the page "Hotelschiff" of the German Wikipedia. --193.30.140.138 (talk) 16:13, 13 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposal to merge with botel

Botel should be merged into this page in my opinion. The distinction is not clear in either article, at most it is defined as whether the location of the ship is seasonal or not, but even that is not always the case. It seems that the term Hotelship/Ship Hotel is simply the German version of a Botel, such that merging would sort out the localization issue too. @Christabel Neboht, Pigsonthewing, and Sanya3: Pieceofmetalwork (talk) 14:10, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, still, per my comment at Talk:Botel. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 19:42, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support merge, due to overlap and short text. Andy's objection seems to be that ships are different from boats, so we shouldn't merge Hotelship and Botel. However, I don't think that the analogy from broad context articles (boat and ship) to more narrowly-focussed articles is appropriate. Further, the content is already mixed between the two pages, with botel article currently discussing Alexander von Humboldt (ship) (for example). Such semantic discrepancies, or controversies, would cease to be problematic with a merge. Klbrain (talk) 18:42, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
