[edit] Arcueid Brunestud

No offense, ladies and gentlemen. I'm a big Tsukihime fan, and I love the characters. But unfortunately, Arcueid's article cites NO sources or real world information. She should be improved with sources before this article ultimately gets deleted. Thank you for understanding. -- ZeroGiga (Contact) 03:03, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

  • KEEP Major character from visual novel series, fighting game series, anime, and manga. If no real world context or notability can be assumed from such things, I humbly suggest all fictional articles be deleted from Wikipedia as well. Also, AfD nominator is being Pointy, having nominated several dozen articles in the course of a single day, and when combined with his own comments that this and all other articles should be improved, his choice of going for Deletion makes me wary of motives, even assuming good faith.

  • Keep or Merge to Characters in Tsukihime. Has popularity in Japan, and is the mascot of Type-Moon. 132.205.44.5 (talk) 23:29, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge to Characters in Tsukihime. Fails WP:FICT, has no notability outside of the series, and would be in keeping with recent discussions in Anime and manga project regarding character articles.Collectonian (talk) 00:15, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep. Per Nezu Chisa. Reliable sources... in English maybe not, but in Japanese, are many many many official guides by TYPE-MOON. If you don't research right, you will not find. And I have one of those books: the guide of Tsukihime and Fate/stay night. This AfD reminds the former AfD about Fate/stay night characters... final results: keep articles... and Wikipedia gains more and more articles of TYPE-MOON Nasuverse.

  • Comment There is a TYPE-MOON Wikia. The information is safe in there (minus pictures)--Lenticel (talk) 10:40, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete and move to the Annex as this article has no primary or secondary sources, and comprises of plot summary with a heavy in universe perspective. --Gavin Collins (talk) 13:56, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Procedural Keep. Nom didn't provide a single valid reason for deletion. AfD isn't cleanup and that seems to be what he's wanting. It's hard to argue for or against a deletion if valid reasons aren't given at the start. Hobit (talk) 03:34, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
