I'll start this off by saying that I'm not 100% sure that I've proved absolute and overwhelming notability beyond a reasonable doubt, but I feel that I've proven just enough notability to where I'd say that this would be best served going through AfD where it can have far more eyes upon it. I've found quite a few sources under just "Red Hook" and "Graving Dock", although many of those reference the whole IKEA purchase. I was initially going to add this to the page for Vigor Shipyards, but there would also be merit in redirecting it to Red_Hook,_Brooklyn#IKEA_in_Red_Hook. However the problems with the first is that VS is a company page rather than a page for the individual shipyard that contained the graving dock. The issue with the second is that it's primarily about the IKEA controversy and not really about the dock per se. I just think this would be better off as an AfD at this point if deletion were to continue.Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 05:56, 10 February 2013 (UTC)
