Ark (Transformers)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Article with no reliable sources about a fictional spacecraft which fails WP:FICT and WP:GNG. Black Kite (t) (c) 18:08, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - Great and detailed article that could use some sources. Don't throw away the baby with the bathwater, clean it up! Mathewignash (talk) 20:59, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - As with pretty much all Transformers-related articles, fails to make an assertion of independent notability. No well-cited content to merge elsewhere. Part of a massive walled garden of poor articles that should at best be heavily listified. --EEMIV (talk) 21:46, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 11:40, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

*Keep - Has some non-primary references and seems to be active. No need to rush to deletion, just tag for needing additional references. 198.51.174.5 (talk) 15:10, 27 August 2010 (UTC) See  for reason for striking this comment

 * Merge this and other Transformers spaceships currently up for deletion to List of Transformers spacecrafts. Jclemens (talk) 20:14, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge to List of Transformers spacecrafts pursuant to the guidelines of Notability (fiction). Inniverse (talk) 13:33, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge to the spacecrafts list. 92.17.22.20 (talk) 09:50, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep There is enough valid information to fill its own article. It is a notable aspect of a notable series, seen in almost every episode of the first Transformers animated series, as well as being in other series as well.   D r e a m Focus  09:54, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
 * WP:ITSNOTABLE, then? Black Kite (t) (c) 18:00, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete I can see nothing to establish its notability.Slatersteven (talk) 14:39, 29 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete unless reliable third person sources can be found to support the article. There is no relilabe sources to support the information so it should be deleted. Dwanyewest (talk) 01:01, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - lack of reliable independent sources means that this is not a suitable topic for an article. Claritas § 09:43, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Note: The article under discussion here has been flagged for rescue by the Article Rescue Squadron, with no explanation as to why this article should be rescued and how that could happen (per ARS instructions).    Snotty Wong   spill the beans 15:45, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to List of Transformers spacecrafts. This fancruft is not encyclopedic.    Snotty Wong   spill the beans 15:45, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete current content. Not sure what, if anything, is sourcable enough to be merged. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  19:00, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - The article definitely fits the Notability. -- TX55   TALK  00:47, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
 * How so? Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  01:23, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, seeing nothing here. J Milburn (talk) 13:33, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Centralize discussion and merge and redirect as accordingly decided by Articles for deletion/Transformers centralized discussion. There are so many articles, surely some of them can be lumped. — Code  Hydro  13:39, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete- another plot summary heavy article about a minor Transformers spaceship. There is no credible demonstration of notability because what few sources they are are not reliable, independent coverage. Reyk  YO!  19:25, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
