[edit] Oozaru

Manga-cruft? With 756 matches on Google [1], what could possibly be written about this subject which would illustrate encyclopedic notability? GRider\^talk 01:04, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, not notable, fancruft. Megan1967 01:09, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep or merge, necessary to adequate coverage of Dragonball Kappa 01:23, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • P.S. you should google Dragonball not Dragon Ball, you'd get 8,240 hits. Kappa 01:25, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, non-notable DBZcruft. ComCat 02:26, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Merge with main DBZ article. Radiant! 09:55, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)
• Merge with Saiyan. (Same should probably happen to Halfbreed Saiyan.) -- Antaeus Feldspar 15:39, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep or Merge. The notion is important enough in the show's mythos, but perhaps it does not need its own article.Sinistro 16:16, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Quite a decent article considering the subject. Seems too large to merge anyway. Xezbeth 17:22, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete or Merge, as good as the article is, the subject of it is extremely unnotable in the grand scheme of things. Grue 20:00, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep --Phred Levi 23:51, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. 756 hits seems notable enough to me; that is, if I bought into the concept of notability being a requirement for inclusion. It sure isn't listed on teh deletion policy, so why is it considered here? Delist; invalid nomination. —RaD Man (talk) 07:50, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, needs refs - David Gerard 17:42, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep or Merge with main DBZ article. While I have less than zero interest in DBZ, I can recognise a good article when I see one. Denni☯ 01:45, 2005 Mar 9 (UTC)
• Merge with main DBZ topic. --Oarias 23:55, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
