[edit] Shiki Tohno

Shiki Tohno (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

No offense, ladies and gentlemen. I'm a big Tsukihime fan, and I love the characters (especially Kohaku! X3). But unfortunately, Mr Tohno's (or should I say "Nanaya's") article has NO sources or real world information. He should be improved with sources, or at the very least merged into a list of Tsukihime characters, before this article ultimately gets deleted. Thank you for understanding. -- ZeroGiga (Contact) 03:03, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

• This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 15:05, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

• KEEP Major character from visual novel series, fighting game series, anime, and manga. If no real world context or notability can be assumed from such things, I humbly suggest all fictional articles be deleted from Wikipedia as well. Also, AfD nominator is being Pointy, having nominated several dozen articles in the course of a single day, and when combined with his own comments that this and all other articles should be improved, his choice of going for Deletion makes me wary of motives, even assuming good faith.

• Merge to Characters in Tsukihime. Fails WP:FICT, has no notability outside of the series, and would be in keeping with recent discussions in Anime and manga project regarding character articles.Collectonian (talk) 00:15, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

• question surely somebody has written on this series and discussed him? It is rather unfair to nominate in one day many articles which may together take weeks to properly document. DGG (talk) 09:38, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
• Merge to Characters in Tsukihime. The article shows no evidence that the subject is notable (due to the lack of significant coverage by reliable, independent secondary sources), currently the article has no sourcing and is written largely from an in universe perspective with no real world content. If evidence of notability is found, it might be appropriate to create an article supported by reliably sourced, verifiable information. At the moment this would not be possible.
