[edit] Plot Summary of Eureka Seven
The article is just a plot summary. By design, the article fails WP:NOT#PLOT. Jay32183 21:53, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Anime and manga-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 22:00, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NOT#IINFO. We don't need more bloated plot summaries. Bring on the next plot page! --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 22:05, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, goes beyond the point of helpfulness into trivial minutia. --tjstrf talk 22:16, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
- Strong delete. My God, is this ever indiscriminate. This page probably got ravaged by a whole bunch of otaku who obsess over every detail (not that I have anything against otaku, mind you)... Ten Pound Hammer • (((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps))) 23:50, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

- Comment. Just like to point out that's not what the "indiscriminate" in "indiscriminate information" means. It's referring to Wikipedia reserving the right to discriminate against classes of information. --tjstrf talk 00:12, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

- Any number of articles deleted as indiscriminate collections of information indicate that the prohibition against indiscriminate collections of information applies at the article level. Otto4711 01:02, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
- Question. Why don't the editors just nominate a bunch of "Plot of..." articles together, instead of indivual nominations? Or is that against the rules? There's still Plot of Fairy Tail, Plot of Highschool of the Dead, Plot of Naruto: Shippūden and Plot of Rurouni Kenshin to consider. Maybe even the Dragon Ball sagas.--Nohansen 02:09, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
- Reply and Agree with delete - I was considering doing this, but was not sure if it would be ethical to clump them all together, so did not go through with it.--十八 02:22, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
- Comment Do it! Nuke as many plot summaries as you can find! I think the dragonball sagas might be a little more controversial since they contain more than a plot summary, but everything else just nuke from orbit. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 02:26, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

- Delete per WP:PLOT. My only concern with any sort of mass nomination is that it'll get people calling for a keep because of the fact of its being a mass nom. Otto4711 16:44, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
- Keep for the very reason indicated by Otto, i.e. mass nominations of these plot points. Perhaps instead a separate policy discussion should occur or instead of deletions, these sorts of things should result in merges or redirects, as I'd really hate to see factual work done by multiple editors just tossed like a bad salad! --164.107.222.23 17:26, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
- It doesn't matter that people put in a lot of work, WP:EFFORT. Merging isn't reasonable since the articles are forks to allow more plot to be included. As for redirecting, "Plot Summary of Eureka Seven" is an unlikely search term. People unfamiliar with Wikipedia wouldn't search for something so complicated, and those familiar with Wikipedia know these types of pages aren't supposed to exist. Jay32183 18:25, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
- The policy discussion has already taken place and consensus is that Wikipedia articles are not plot summaries. Otto4711 01:01, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
- Merge into Eureka Seven and transwiki somewhere (WikiBooks?) 70.55.86.129 04:46, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:NOT#PAPER and WP:SS. Matthew 12:47, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
- Delete as unnecessary duplicate of List of Eureka Seven episodes and a violation of WP:NOT#PLOT. Some of the other details can be merged elsewhere, or a separate (manga) article can be split off from the main article to cover the differences between the anime and the manga. However, I think most of these sections already fall afoul of WP:NOR. --Farix (Talk) 16:01, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
