Deletion rationale

I don't believe this term was used in Star Trek. Usually 'hull breach' was used. 31dot 22:32, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Discussion

  • If it wasn't used... delete. Do note that it is linked from alert signals though... -- Sulfur 16:59, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
The closest thing that I believe was used to "decompression alert" was in "Q-Less" where Sisko said "decompression protocol". In that case, perhaps this should be renamed. 31dot 19:54, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Perhaps Keep. Although the term was not used so far I remember, the computer voice (Majel Barrett) of the space suit in Star Trek: First Contact said "Warning, decompression in 45 seconds." Before this an alert signal sounds. Perhaps this is a decompression alert? – Tom 22:18, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

An indistinct beep from the computer and an announcement isn't enough to justify an independent article.
