The result was redirect to Floating city. The history is still there if there's anything worth merging. -- RoySmith (talk) 02:19, 26 March 2020 (UTC) reply

Mostly a WP:DICDEF combined with WP:SYNTH. The saying "city at sea" can't be applied to any single concept, as shown with the disambiguation at Floating city. No need for two disambiguations referring to the same thing. ZXCVBNM ( TALK) 20:54, 18 March 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Merge to Ocean colonization. Although different terms on the Floating city disambiguation page could cover the concept, this appears to be the best fit, as it proposes a specific instance of ocean colonization, and does not require a particular political association with that effort.

  • Oppose deletion This topic is notable and is separate from the previously Floating City. But, I would be supportive of a merge with Ocean Colonization as previously suggested. ~ HAL 333 01:44, 19 March 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to Floating city. Aside from a vague allusion to a "Glassco", which I have been unable to find due to the lack of details, the information in the article is completely unsourced. And, unsourced information should not be merged into other articles. I am fine with the term being used as a redirect, though, and the overall Floating city disambiguation seems to be the best place for people to get to what they are looking for.
