No point in having an article on a one-ship class, given that the ship itself has a [far more developed] article. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 04:05, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Merge the first paragraph and redirect to the ship. The redirect is useful for the template of USN cruiser classes at the bottom. Clarityfiend (talk) 07:33, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Merge per Clarityfiend. Longstanding practice is no ship class for unique warships (there are some exceptions, but this isn't one of them). Parsecboy (talk) 13:39, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge Its what we did with the Enterprise-class, so it'll work here too. TomStar81 (Talk) 17:38, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per Clarityfiend. We should have a page for every class, no matter how small.--Jim in Georgia Contribs Talk 18:58, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per Clarityfiend's suggested guideline above. Kierzek (talk) 14:30, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per Clarityfiend. No reason for a separate article about the class when it contains just the one ship. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:00, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
