Agumon (Data Squad)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

No out-of-universe context or notability, no independent sources apart from 1 trivial mention. Article consists of OR plot only. Fails WP:GNG. Crusio (talk) 15:07, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
 * delete per WP:POKEMON ~ Alison C. (aka Crazytales) 16:49, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
 * WP:POKEMON describes an outdated arguement formerly used at AFD, and doesn't provide any sort of arguement for deletion (though it does mention that many Pokemon articles were eventually merged into lists). If you think the article should be deleted, please provide a reason why you think so, rather than referring to an essay that doesn't provide any arguement for deletion.

 * Merge to List of Digimon Data Squad characters. While the individual character may have no independent coverage, he is one of the main characters of the series and should be merged into the character list for that series. —Farix (t &#124; c) 20:03, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of Digimon Data Squad characters. No independent coverage of the character, and little of this article is adequately sourced per WP:V, so a merge would be inappropriate. --Anthem 17:11, 14 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Redirect due to lack of indication of notability. – Harry Blue5 (talk • contribs) 22:19, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete: The fictional character does not meet general notability guideline and the article is a plot-only description of a fictional work that extracts the content with primary sources and original research by synthesis. As such, I do not think that a merge is warranted. A redirect is also not a good alternative due to the disambiguation in the article title. Jfgslo (talk) 14:11, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
 * The plot-only argument would violate WP:NOT and bypass a discussion of notability, but this argument has the problem that this is not a plot-only article, it is encyclopedic. Unscintillating (talk) 00:01, 20 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Incubate Good article, not enough sourcing for Wikipedia content policy, there seems to be no basic dispute here that the character is notable: "attracts attention", and "worthy of notice".  Unscintillating (talk) 00:01, 20 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete due to lack of direct coverage in independent secondary sources, as seen with the WP:GNG. 74.198.9.152 (talk) 17:18, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
