Dry Bones
I don't a band created as of November with no songs of any type is ready for Wikipedia. Ricky81682 (talk) 22:27, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. I rewrote it as an article about a Nintendo character. (Note: if you know of any other uses of this term, feel free to create a dis-ambiguation page at Dry Bones (disambiguation). Georgia guy 22:54, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I agree with the deletion of the band-related page - the article said they have not published a song yet, so they are certainly nn.  That said, I do wish that you hadn't circumvented the deletion review process by erasing the band article while we were voting on it. -Meegs 00:30, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
 * We could probably use a disambiguation page; "Dry Bones" is also a comic strip that has been running in the Jerusalem Post for over 30 years. --Metropolitan90 01:29, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure if a stub about a minor badnik from the Mario series is a better subject to be kept at Wikipedia under this namespace. Delete both the rewrite and the original band-related article. Saberwyn 23:10, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Looking over the history of the page, at one point it was into a redirect to Koopa Troopa which is probably what it should be again. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 23:35, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Redirect to Koopa Troopa per Ricky would be OK, but since there is apparently a band and a comic strip with that name, I'm not sure that more users might not be looking for those. In which case a "no article" message would be better than goint to Koopa Troopa. Herostratus 03:38, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep nintendo characters have large audiences. Kappa 04:17, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep post-rewrite version. Now that Dry Bones is/are a playable character in several games, an article would not be unreasonable. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  17:10, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Agree with Starblind. Sjakkalle (Check!)  10:29, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
