[edit] Grayson Space Navy
Non-notable sub-subtopic of a science fiction series. Completely in-universe infodump unsupported by any third-party sources. Fails WP:N, WP:FICT. WP:WAF compliance would require a complete rewrite (and third-party sources). Not worth merging anywhere in any level of detail. Sandstein (talk) 20:47, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. This is a reference to the Honorverse and the fact that it is in-universe is not a reason to delete. --Eastmain (talk) 22:53, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Maybe the in-universe thing is just an editing issue, but the notability factor is a reason to delete. The only reference provided is an internal link to an article about one of the novels, not a reliable secondary source as required to establish notability. Beeblbrox (talk) 00:29, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete and check-out all the other non-notable stuff {{Honorverse}}. This article along with many others in this, space, are all written in an entirly in-universe style and amount to little more than plot summary. Note the <noinclude> text from the above linked template;
It outlines articles about the fictional universe, from the point of view of someone inside the story. Meaning it makes no reference to the world outside of the books. However, the linked articles may or may not distinguish between those points of view.
This indicates a fundamental issue with the editorial focus of some of the editors involved. Cheers, Jack Merridew 09:34, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
