Alternative versions of Nightcrawler

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unnecessary article split that goes into too much detail about in-universe details and fails to justify its existence through reliable sources needed to pass WP:GNG. I don't even know if it's possible to establish independent notability for such a split because any sources, should they even exist, would likely be weighted towards one particular interpretation or another rather than the whole grouping. This should be a two to three paragraph section in the main article at best, but I don't think any existing content is worthy of being merged. It should be started from scratch.

 * Delete as a WP:CONTENTFORK that does not meet the WP:GNG, due to a lack of reliable third party sources. There is already an article about this character, and it's not in the best shape, requiring lots of sources, and treading much of the same ground as this. What does or does not qualify as an "alternate version" is WP:OR, and that type of subjectivity is easily resolved by not forking this from the main article.

 * Delete. Massive pile of WP:OR.  While it could possibly be a paragraph or two in the main article, this article is not that content.  WP:TNT it. Hog Farm Bacon 18:24, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge a basic summary to Nightcrawler (comics). BOZ (talk) 22:45, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge (if anyone can find referenced valuable content to rescue). Otherwise this just a bad-style WP:FANCRUFT. What are "alternative versions" anyway? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 03:39, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete an unjustified content fork.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:32, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: Article does not meet WP:GNG and WP:BEFORE showed nothing that meets WP:SIGCOV. Article itself is mostly (all) WP:OR based on primary sources.   // Timothy ::  talk  14:44, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
