[edit] Devas (Digimon)

Devas (Digimon) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Anime fancruft at its worst. This article does not cite primary sources, reliable secondary sources or provide any evidence of notability, but worst of all, is comprised of vapid character summary. Gavin Collins 08:42, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Anime and manga-related deletions. —Gavin Collins 08:42, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
• Comment At worst it's a merge, as Digimon is pretty notable; surely there is a list this can go on. Perhaps such a proposal would be better for this rather than an AfD? --Sesameball^Talk 09:21, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

• Comment Without primary or seconary sources, these ficitonal characters have no claim to notability per se, so how could you justify a move to another article? Perhaps this would be best if moved to somewhere like fancruft.net.--Gavin Collins 09:58, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

• Comment per WP:FICT out-of-universe notability does not limit the content of an article, just whether the article itself can exist. So if Digimon is notable, that's sufficient. —Quasirandom 14:45, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
• Comment I see nothing in WP:NOTE or WP:FICT that would suggest that a merge proposal isn't the proper initial action rather than firing off AfDs. I also agree with the above comment by Quasirandom. --Sesameball^Talk 18:14, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

• Agreed. Not notable enough to stand on its own, move it to the list. --Mad Tinman 16:54, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Yeah go ahead and delete it, it was starting to annoy me anyway. Just add the Deva's info in the Ultimate Digimon section, that will work. Johnny542 15:03, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

• Merge or delete I'm exporting the full article history now for Wikia:Digimon, just incase there's anything of value. If anyone is interested in helping out, WP:DIGI is already planning on moving some of the lists articles over, and other articles, such as this, will need to be evaluated too. -- Ned Scott 18:50, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Digimon sucks, Pokemon rocks. Jack^(Lumber) 01:09, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:FICT. Secondary sources to indicate notability do not exist. Doctorfluffy 20:24, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
