[edit] Rules of the Death Note

Rules of the Death Note (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Per WP:NOT, Wikipedia is not the place for strictly a plot summary nor a guide to use a death note. The Death Note itself is adequately covered in the main article. UnfriendlyFire (talk) 04:52, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

  • Comment. Not sure what I think about this matter. My first thought, when I saw it pop up on my watchlist, almost ready for its deletion debate, was that it needs sourcing and some real-world impact, thus my "vote" was going to be Keep. Now, however, I want to see what others have to say about this article's fate before, or if, I cast my "vote". Flyer22 (talk) 05:01, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete: Mostly on the basis that it is complete plot information, which is completely unsouced. If this is so important it should be merged into the main article. - Rjd0060 (talk) 05:14, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - non-notable part of a fictional universe and I doubt enough secondary sources could be found to satisfy WP:FICT. Sephiroth BCR (Converse) 08:59, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, main article already covers this. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 09:01, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Mostly fancruft and trivia type stuff that fails multiple guidelines as already noted. Collectonian (talk) 09:10, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete fails WP:FICT and is mostly original research and trivia as well. --Farix (Talk) 12:21, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. The summary of the rules in the main Death Note article should be sufficient. KyuuA4 (talk) 09:18, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as per all of the above, including WP:NOR, WP:NOT#IINFO, WP:FANCRUFT and WP:TRIVIA. Greg Jones II 21:37, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per Farix (Duane543 04:15, 2 December 2007 (UTC))
