[edit] Grudges in the Pokemon anime

Good grief. While I am involved in the subject of Pokémon, I think that this article is definitely far too specialized for Wikipedia. Those who know about its subject won't need to read it, and those who don't will never care to. Sinistro 09:13, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

• Comment - Could the resolving editor please Userfy this into a subpage of my user page (and then delete the redirect), if the consensus is to delete? I think a little bit of this, if very heavily edited and rewritten, could stand to be merged into some preexisting articles, and the terms of the GFDL require that the page history be preserved somewhere. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 03:00, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

I will also put the content of this article as a sub-page in my user page.

• Bulbapedia-ize - Such info is needed at a dedicated pokéwiki. --Celestianpower ^hab 09:59, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, notable aspect of the pokemon universe. Kappa 12:49, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
• (tentative) Delete as original research. It is also blatant ghastly timewasting cruft. Zeimusu | (Talk page) 14:53, August 13, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Find a Pokemon wiki for something like this - it's of no academic value, and it's of no interest to a general readership either. Only a diehard fan could care. Or, to put it simply: not encyclopedic. Isomorphic 16:12, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

No, because die-hard fans know all of this. --Celestianpower ^hab 16:20, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. more fancruft. -R. fiend 16:22, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete Poster child for GOOPTI. -- Antaeus Feldspar 17:08, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
• GOOPTI? Anyway, delete as blatant fancruft. Not even worth tagging with Template:poke-cleanup. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 18:14, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
  • GOOPTI. -- Antaeus Feldspar 18:39, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
    • I would argue that there's a place for this information on Wikipedia. This article, especially under this name, is certainly not the form it should take. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 02:55, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

  • Best. Vote. Ever. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 22:44, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and thank you all for restoring my sanity. I almost put this up for a VfD last night, but figured so many would argue for it and vote to keep it that there was no point. Now I'm going to go find some really deserving articles to write or improve! --DavidConrad 00:36, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Perhaps the pokétide is turning... / Peter ^Isotalo 02:38, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Don't be quite so sure. At least three WP:PAC members in good standing voted on this one, including the nom. It's just that some things are so crufty even we don't want to be associated with them. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 02:58, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete arghh -83.129.12.108 03:36, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• How dare you?-You should just give it a chance. It should not be deleted. I just can't believe how many people hate this page. So if anyone dares to critizize this article again, you will be sorry. Besides, there are many people that want to know stuff like this. 08:09, 14 August 2005 65.43.145.185
  • Yeah, there's a bunch of Pokémon fans on Wikipedia, all of them working to make interesting, encyclopedic articles about Pokémon. It's just that this essay isn't exactly Wikipedia material. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 10:15, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• Speedy keep-I forgot to say this earlier 65.43.145.185
• Comment to the anonymous new users: Why not get a user name and drop a comment at the Pokémon project's talk page or my talk page? If you can do that, I can show you the ropes, including pointing you towards some articles that could use your attention. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 10:15, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
