The result was Delete I can't see how an article with only in universe references can have established any external real world notability. The place to rewrite the notability guideline is the talk page of said guideline. The delete is reversable if some real world independant sources can be found.

Femax

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This article asserts no notability, and as such is just an in-universe plot repetition of various pieces of the plot sections of the many articles on the Transformers. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 04:07, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom and per a nonexistant policy I've invented called WP:REDUNDANTCRUFT. --Cheeser1 (talk) 05:17, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge to an article about Transformers planets. J I P  | Talk 06:26, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge to the article about Transformers planets. DOSGuy (talk) 17:47, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Question: is there an article about Transfomers planets? I can't find one, and I'm not sure one is necessary, if it's being created just to absorb something from an AfD. --Cheeser1 (talk) 18:34, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, there is. I just created one this morning: List of Transformers planets. J I P  | Talk 21:56, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
 * And will this article have a better WP:N rationale than the single-planet articles? Will it have reliable sources? I'm not asking because I believe it doesn't, I'm just trying to stem what might be alot of unnecessary work. --Cheeser1 (talk) 22:56, 13 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. In my editing experience, up to half (in fact, perhaps the vast majority) of all articles on Wikipedia are about characters and locations from fictional universes. I'd prefer not to see a million articles get deleted from Wikipedia, so it's time to define what "notable" means. I support the deletion of articles that have limited or regional scope. An article is notable if its scope is international. The Transformers are popular on an international scale, and characters and locations within that universe are also likely to be of interest to a significant number of visitors from around the world. Articles that meet "notability" requirements, but have too little content to stand on their own, should be merged. Since this particular article is not a stub, it should stay. If you can't refute this argument, you really can't delete the article. DOSGuy (talk) 10:48, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
