Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mona (Wario)

This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record.
The result of the debate was keep.

Concensus was not reached on whether this article should be kept as an independent article or should be "merged and redirected" back to the parent article. That decision, however, does not require voting on VfD and is appropriate to discuss on the respective article Talk pages.

Sinistro, please review the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Votes for deletion/January-February 2005#Merge and Delete for why we need to redirect rather than simply delete. Rossami (talk) 20:56, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Mona_(Wario)

While Mona, like the rest of Wario's video game developers team, warrants a mention in the article under the character section, I see little reason for her to have her own article. The amount of information presented is misleading, I think: half the article describes in every detail the sketchy scenario concerning her microgame stage. I believe that all important information could be easily trimmed into a small paragraph which could be merged to the main article. What do you think, Wikipedians? Sinistro 19:54, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• I think that this is Votes for deletion and not Votes for merge. If you think it warrants a merge, be bold and merge/redirect it. This page is for proposing pages you think should be deleted. No vote at this time. Chris 21:20, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)

But I do believe that the page should be deleted. I just suggest that part of the page's information is preserved by being added to the main article. Thanks for encouraging me to Be bold, I'll keep it in mind in the future!Sinistro 20:48, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)

No, when you say you want part of the information kept, you might be saying delete, but what you actually meant to say was merge and redirect, which isn't what this page is for. Chris 21:07, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• Keep according to the article, she's been in 4 games already, all of which are major games by a major developer/publisher. I'd say that warrants an article. I think the title is awkward though. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 20:41, Mar 21, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep per Starblind's argument. Kappa 21:13, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as fancruft. Even if this character deserves to be mentioned in another article, a redirect resulting from a merge is unncessary. Thus, the page should go. Martg76 21:21, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Recent general consensus seems to indicate that this should be merged and redirected into the appropriate parent article. See also: Wikipedia:Deletion policy/Minor characters. --GRider\^talk 21:54, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, mariocruft. ComCat 01:51, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Merge She may have been in four games, but mostly as just a face with little to no personality, and therefore little worth noting in an individual article. --InShaneee 04:55, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, same reasons as Starblind.--Matteh (talk) 05:09, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, gamescruft. Megan1967 05:16, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Merge as minor character. Radiant_* 09:29, Mar 22, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep "cruft". It's not as if this article is only a few sentences, so merging is unnecessary. —Xezbeth 17:36, Mar 22, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep as per Starblind's reasoning. --Cohen the Bavarian 15:12, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. --JuntungWu 08:12, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)
