[edit] Grand Marshal (Star Wars)

I'm not big on deleting articles, but I see no merit in having one that's purely speculation about a possible military rank in a fictional universe. If the rank were actually used in Star Wars (either the movies themselves, or an Expanded Universe source), it would merit mentioning (though probably not as a separate article). But that's not the case, as far as I can tell. Contrary to what the article claims, I'm unaware of this alleged rank ever coming up in a Star Wars novel or comic book, and I've read quite a lot of them. Redxiv 06:01, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete in absence of any evidence. —porges_(talk) 06:39, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete this doesn't seem notable even within the Star Wars universe, but I'm willing to be convinced otherwise. Darquis 07:26, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
• Weak delete, not very notable if it's only speculated. JIP | Talk 08:17, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, speculation. Kimchi.sg 08:55, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Its all speculation (WP:NOR). Anyway, it has not appeared in any of the novels (as far as I know), and if it has, it has been so minor a mention that it slips completely under the radar, and has no consequence on the fictional universe other than maybe existing (WP:CRUFT). -- Saberwyn 10:42, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
• Also up for deletion as fictional speculation over on Wookieepedia. Trivial enough to be deleted here as well, even if it were a valid part of Star Wars canon, under Wikipedia rules. Silly Dan 12:31, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Unless a source suddenly appears (which seems unlikely), it's pure speculation, and even then it's probably too minor for its own article. BryanG 18:15, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
