Carbombya

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Topic isn't really that notable. The controversy and offense caused by the subject can be covered in Casey Kasem and The Transformers (TV series) NotARealWord (talk) 12:47, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete Its been shown time and time again the so called "sources" on this and many other Transformers articles are unreliable :See "Reliable sources for Transformers"


 * Keep Isn't the reference listed notable? Its an example of an negative Arab stereotype.   D r e a m Focus  17:32, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - I don't think that source is enough for the entire article though. NotARealWord (talk) 20:15, 5 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Weak Keep: the AMEU link, I feel, makes this article notable; the fictional country offended one of the voice-actors because of the overtly racist undertones of it so much so that he left. That, to me, indicates notability. Sceptre (talk) 20:25, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment: There's not enough material for an entire article. The main article on the TV show can just note that a fictional country within the show was really offensive and caused one of the voice actors to quit. NotARealWord (talk) 20:40, 5 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment: This one has potential for an article, but we're gonna need to see more than just that one link. J Milburn (talk) 23:12, 6 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Another source - Spike.com also mentions it in an article. http://www.spike.com/blog/six-most-insane/87055?page=2&numPerPage=1 Mathewignash (talk) 23:30, 6 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Redirect - The dispute is nothing more a footnote in Kasem's career and the show's production. The rest is nothing but useless fancruft. It would serve better on the show's article. Sarujo (talk) 13:55, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - The important stuff could all be summarised in one paragraph. Redirect could work since there's not enough stuff for an article without resorting to fancruft. NotARealWord (talk) 12:16, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Comment - There isn't much of an article right now, and I'm pretty sure the only information to add to it would be more sources. So, really, there isn't going to be much of an article without resorting to fancruft. I really can't see why this can't be summed up in one paragraph on the page for the TV series.

 * Merge to The Transformers (TV series). No independent, reliable sources able to confer independent notability. Skinny87 (talk) 09:59, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge to The Transformers (TV series) per above voter. --Divebomb (talk) 14:07, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
