Chronological list of Animorphs books

This is an unnecessary list and probably original research. TTN (talk) 18:10, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete The information should be built into the table at List of Animorphs books as an extra field (sortable), no need for an extra list much less article. I'll copy the list to the talk page of that article and request help to add the field. --Green Cardamom (talk) 22:51, 30 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Please do not copy articles currently at AfD, per the fifth/last item under WP:Guide to deletion. WP:Copying within Wikipedia evaluation follows: There is no creativity in the list selection, which spans all 54 Animorphs books and all 8 in-continuity companion books. The main books are listed in numbered order, and the placement of the others could be argued to be derived (original research or not) from their contents. The several sentences of explanatory prose, particularly for The Hork-Bajir Chronicles, may be creative for their selection and expression of relevant details. I think that CWW applies, but the explanations could be removed. Flatscan (talk) 05:14, 4 December 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep unless merged into List of Animorphs books. Might as well delete all list compilations created by editors if 'original research' is a reason to delete this. VMS Mosaic (talk) 09:55, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

 * Merge or Keep Merge for preference. Keep if no one wants to spare the effort.Neonchameleon (talk) 02:43, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Merge to the existing list, either as a separate table, or add a "chronological order" column to the existing list so it can be sorted. Having separate lists like this serves no purpose. Ivanvector (talk) 15:57, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
