Energy Sword

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Non-notable element of a notable game (Halo). Additionally, it's largely comprised of original research and opinion. These concerns are of course secondary to the notability concern. If it can be demonstrated that there aren't other games with an "energy sword" I'd completely support a redirect to the Halo series article. But, again, notability is primary -- compare the coverage of this item to coverage of the clearly notable BFG9000 from Doom. ɠǀɳ̩ςεΝɡ bomb  17:34, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Perhaps could've been prodded like Overshields and Plasma Grenades. If either of those are contested, I believe they should be deleted as well. This is more suitable for: http://halo.wikia.com/.  Jujutacular  T · C 18:46, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment I considered PROD'ing energy sword but the article isn't new like Overshields and Plasma Grenades (this one was started in 2006, although has basically sat untouched for the majority of its life), and my personal experience is that Halo's Energy Sword is a more remarkable weapon than the other two and, as such, might be a more controversial deletion. I didn't want to give the appearance of trying to sneak a PROD through the system, in other words :). But, yeah, those thoughts aside, I agree, and I thought about doing it. ɠǀɳ̩ςεΝɡ  bomb  18:52, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - As much as I love it, there's just not enough reliable, significant coverage of this weapon. That, along with the issues WP:OR and the WP:NFCC violations on the images is enough to "cut" this one. --Teancum (talk) 11:34, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - Gamecruft. Get rid. Already well documented at Wikia Gaming. Marasmusine (talk) 16:28, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
