Articles like this are why the word otaku is often translated "creepy nerd" Nardman1 03:59, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

I concur. I really would have gone for a WP:CSD#A7 on this one, but while we're here... this person appears non-notable, the article is completely unsourced. There's nothing here to write an article from. — coelacan — 07:59, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

• Delete Nardman nailed it. Weird, obsessive, trivial. Guy (Help!) 17:14, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete I could find only one citation for any voiceover work (a brief Japanese TV show). Nothing notable found. Arx Fortis 17:52, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
• Speedy delete WP:CSD#A7, and yes... general creepiness. Name, birthdate, and... blood... type...? Autocracy 20:55, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Comment Well it's been said before and it will probably be said again, but the Japanese consider blood type to be analogous to a zodiac sign; otaku are just in on this, unlike most Westerners. 213.172.246.68 15:00, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

• Speedy delete A7. Resolute 02:04, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
• Merge to Negima, if it has a section for voice actors of the anime. - (Ninsaneja 02:52, 11 March 2007 (UTC))
• WP:CIVILITY, please. This AFD is being conducted in a very uncivil and possibly culturally biased manner because of ignorance of other cultures. blood type is often included in biographies of Japanese celebrities. It appears in Japanese wikipedia articles quite often. Her bio on Japanese wikipedia is considerably longer, but the information would be considered trivial here.

• And there are cultures where pedophilia is not only common but accepted, but I doubt anyone would pound on any visceral reaction we might have to articles including it; let's get a grip on the PChood, shall we? That being said, Delete as NN, fails WP:BIO. RGTraynor 18:20, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

• Thank you for the wonderful strawman argument. Blood Type is a trait. It's like having blue eyes or brown skin. It is not comparative to sexual devient behaviour. I objected to this because multiple members disputed the validity of thise as biography (and the editors who wrote it) because they included a common element found in native language biographies as a reason for deletion. That is cultural bias if I've ever seen it. --Kunzite 13:48, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
