Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Professor Tomoe

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

All the Sailor Moon antagonists should be put in a Sailor Moon antagonists article, at most. There is really no reason for each one to have its own article. Wikipedia is not a fansite. See also: Eudial, Fish Eye and Sailor Galaxia.

    • And wikipedia is not paper. Kim Bruning 20:06, 23 Aug 2004 (UTC)
      • While Wikipedia may not be paper, server resources are also finite. Elf-friend 20:10, 23 Aug 2004 (UTC)
        • If you do the math, you'll notice that the difference in server resources are miniscule between having data on one page, and split out on separate pages. Hmm, the difference could even become negative if you add a merge&redirect to the mix ;-) So discussion should be on merit alone. That poor server has already lost more resources to this discussion than it ever will on whatever it is that we decide to do. :-P Kim Bruning 08:36, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
          • An antagonists article was an attempt at a compromise from me. IMHO, we actually only need one article on Sailor Moon. Period. The same goes for Pokemon, Harry Potter (I'm a fan, but too much is too much), Yu-Gi-Oh, Lord of The Rings (I'm a HUGE fan of the books - notice my user name), etc. We do not need all these break-out articles. Its just too much granularity, as Geogre wrote. And that while so many important real world articles still need to be written. --Elf-friend 09:11, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
            • :-D Excellent. Go Forth And Write then! What are you still doing on vfd? Oh hmm, come to think of it, what am I still doing here?... I'll be off then. Kim Bruning 09:38, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
              • Have a look at the articles I have already written - they are listed on my user page. I'm doing my best :) --Elf-friend 18:12, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect with the proposed Sailor Moon antagonists. It's not that I'm against the information, but I am against this level of granularity. Geogre 01:13, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge with Sailor Moon, do not redirect. Wikipedia is a general encyclopedia, not a Sailor Moon or anime fan site. -- orthogonal 01:27, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
    • Comment: Merging requires redirect. Author attribution is destroyed if you delete the original. The original article must always exist, even if hidden beneath a redirect. SWAdair | Talk 07:45, 26 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • I like the merge to Sailor Moon antagonists. Work to reduce ridiculous clutter! PMC 02:29, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Clutter. Merge, no redirect. Average Earthman 10:55, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
    • Um, wouldn't that breach the GFDL? Ambi 06:38, 25 Aug 2004 (UTC)
    • Comment: Merging requires redirect to preserve author attribution. SWAdair | Talk 07:45, 26 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • These articles, on examination, are too long to merge. Keep. [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 17:07, 2004 Aug 24 (UTC)
  • Strong keep. This is deletionism gone too far. It doesn't take up any extra server resources, and though it is of approximately zero interest to me, it's clearly encyclopedic. Ambi 06:38, 25 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Articles are too long to merge. Strong keep. WhisperToMe 22:35, 26 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Too long to merge, so keep. -Sean Curtin 00:01, Aug 29, 2004 (UTC)
