[edit] Talark

Article about a high school gang/secret society/roleplaying game(?). This was nominated for deletion before, and only got 2 votes (1 delete, 1 merge), so I'm re-listing it here. The previous merge vote suggested merging into Vandread, but there is no content suitable for merging, hence Delete as unverifiable, original research. MegamiX 22:29, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete Wikipedia is not for things made up in school one day. From the article: "members were trained in militaristic spy-group called the Eastern Alliance early in Grade Four". Sure they were. Delete. Unverifiable. Unencyclopedic. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 22:39, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect with Vandread the parent anime series. Durova 23:05, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
• Starblind and Megamix are right. Durova is wrong. In Vandread, Talark is a planet (see this explanation, for example), one populated exclusively by men, moreover; whereas this article is all about a purported school society founded in 2001 that contains, as per the article, at least four girls. The purported society is unverifiable (I found the aforementioned explanation when looking for sources.), and Wikipedia is not for things made up in school one day, as mentioned. At the very best this is a redirect to Vandread, per WP:FICT (even though, as the cause of the confusion last time around, that article doesn't even bother to explain this very basic facet of the series — Merging this content would only serve to make the article even more confusing, uninformative, and incomprehensible.) Delete the unverifiable content beforehand according to taste. Uncle G 05:34, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete unverifiable. Stifle 01:14, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete unverifiable; close to patent nonsense. Madman 06:04, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete unverifiable; I know I have no place to talk here... but.. I happen to be an avid Vandread fan, and this garbage has NOTHING to do with Vandread...OverlordSmurf 09:57, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
