Bio-Armour
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Totally unsourced, non-notable; virtually no third-party references (and those that do exist could easily be noted in the "In fiction" section of the Powered exoskeleton article). Not every vaguely interesting sci-fi concept needs its own article. PROD failed only due to existence of a previous PROD. Michaelmas1957 02:36, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Also, disregard "2nd nomination" in title – I didn't realise that PRODs don't count. Michaelmas1957 02:47, 7 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:NEO and WP:MADEUP. The article has no references, and I couldn't find any independent sources discussing bio-armour.  While there are plenty of cartoon and fictional accounts of biological-based protection, the term "bio-armour" is not used. NJ Wine (talk) 03:52, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete, how did this WP:OR MADEUP WAYTOOSOON ESSAY survive six years? Bizarre. There was no substance to it at the start, and there's none now. No citations; no real technology or research to support it; not even a real dictionary entry; just wishful dreaming based on sci-fi: "will theoretically be able to self-repair" (9 May 2006, still there today). No it won't. Quickly now. Chiswick Chap (talk) 04:52, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I know, I've been trying to get the damn thing deleted for more than a year now! Michaelmas1957 04:54, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

 * A very long overdue delete. The article is unreferenced, and has been so for many years now. While I think the concept of Bio-Armour is an important concept of several works of fiction, even a search fails to find any coverage specifically about the actual concept. Time to put this one to a long-delayed rest. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 14:56, 8 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Hmmm, strikes me as a valid search term, so I'm tempted to say redirect to Powered exoskeleton maybe? Agree that the design section reads as in-universe OR, which is a pity. Casliber (talk · contribs) 14:10, 13 June 2012 (UTC)
