Original research plot summary about non-notable characters. No real world context and only sources are someones blog. Ridernyc (talk) 07:02, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

• Delete, fictional race/group with no notability outside of the Bionicle universe. Fails WP:FICTION. Lankiveil (talk) 09:06, 1 January 2008 (UTC).
• Comment The sidebar is broken. Colonel Warden (talk) 09:47, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

• I believe this is the first, not second, nomination, and have restricted the sidebar to show only related AfDs. –Pomte 06:15, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

• Keep this referenced and well-organized article. Happy New Year! Sincerely, --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles^Tally-ho! 19:14, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete. The article has no reliable sources, and is hardly more than a plot summary. The complaint tags currently on the article (articleissues, self-published and primarysources) seem well-justified. If anyone has a plan for fixing the article that would correct the tagged issues, now would be a good time to offer it. EdJohnston (talk) 17:05, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
• Comment I"m the one who added the tags normally I would give more time before taking things to AFD, but it quickly became apparent that people were just going to be constantly removing tags and ignoring them. Ridernyc (talk) 17:13, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Fictional characters-related deletion discussions. —Gavin Collins (talk) 10:27, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete as fails WP:V, WP:NOT#PLOT and there are no reliable secondary sources to demonstrate notability. --Gavin Collins (talk) 09:12, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
• Keep, I added a Development section and cited The Washington Post. These are notable. I've also cited Frank Provo and Brett Todd of GameSpot. --Pixelface (talk) 13:00, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

these section would great in the Bioncle article covering the entire franchise, there no reason for every aspect of bioncle to have it's own page, particularly when you look at the main article and the massive work it needs. Ridernyc (talk) 20:14, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

• Keep based on recently added sources. However, this needs a massive trimming as well. As for the remaining related articles, redirect them here with a (very small) relevant merge of apprpriate material. --Craw-daddy | T | 19:35, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

the sources added talk about the entire franchise and only mention the character in passing. There are not articles about the characters. Have you looked at the main bionicle page if you trim the cruft from you would have a stub all this should be rewritten there. Ridernyc (talk) 20:12, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
