[edit] Zero One

Zero One (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This article is just an in-universe repetition of the plot of one of the stories from the Animatrix, and has no notability or referencing of its own. As this is covered in appropriate detail at that article, this is wholly duplicative and should be deleted. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 21:54, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

• Delete. No sources given. No assertion that this is notable outside the context of the movies and associated marketing franchise, and therefore it should not be separated from the articles about the movies. Argyriou (talk) 06:29, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

• Delete unless sources can be found that establish notability by showing significant coverage by reliable secondary sources independent of the subject. Guest9999 (talk) 15:57, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
• Keep – I may not agree with the article, however, when you get over 300 Hits at Google Scholar, as shown here [1] that is pretty impressive in and of itself. Likewise, when there are over 10,00 hits at Google as shown here [2] using a very specific search criteria on both searches, I would have to say Keep. Shoessss |  Chat  14:13, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

• comment - most of those hits at Google Scholar are utterly unrelated to this. There are 4 which appear to be related to the movie. In the two which I could see, the single mention of "Zero One" was a trivial mention - the articles are about the movies in general, but we already know the movies are notable.

Comment - I believe the contention of the article, as I read it, is that Machine City and Zero-One are interchangeable. The Google Scholar hits verify that point, with a tad more than only four articles, and trivial is WP:POV :-). In that sense, a merge to Machine City would be appropriate. However, there is no article on Machine City. Shoessss |  Chat  01:27, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

• Delete no refs so it is currently non-notable OR. NBeale (talk) 16:38, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
