Bending in Avatar: The Last Airbender

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

The article describes, in great detail, the various forms of magic portrayed in a TV series and related works. This is contrary to WP:GNG, as this aspect of the series does not seem to have been covered (in any comparable level of detail) in third-party reliable sources, and also contrary to WP:WAF, as it's entirely WP:IN-U plot summary. Such content is better presented in the corresponding fan wiki.  Sandstein  21:13, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete, entirely in-universe, sourced only to the episodes. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 21:15, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete, for the same reasons I've nominated many other Avatar-related articles for deletion/merging, i.e., in-universe, etc. — Parent5446 ☯ ([ msg] email) 21:27, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete, have to agree with the nominator, this is material that is much more appropriate to the fan wiki that wikipedia. Current sourcing seems to be entirely 1st party products.  Derekloffin (talk) 21:48, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete I failed to find enough reliable sources that would prove that "bending" has real-world significance. What content there is could be in a setting or plot section of Avatar: The Last Airbender, or instead be discussed in detail in an appropriate wiki.
