Freedom's Five

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable comic book group. They appeared in a flashback in an issue of Invaders in 1976. Outside of this flashback the group has not made any appearances. Stephen Day (talk) 05:05, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

NOTE: Redirecting to List of Marvel Comics teams and organizations seems like a sensible compromise to me. I'd like to withdraw my nomination and close the debate. Stephen Day (talk) 03:33, 25 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete, appeared in one comic in the 70s. No real world notability or sources, so fails WP:FICT.  Lankiveil (complaints 12:24, 19 January 2008 (UTC).
 * Keep, or Merge and Redirect to either Union Jack (comics) or Phantom Eagle. BOZ (talk) 17:02, 19 January 2008 (UTC) Redirect to List of Marvel Comics teams and organizations. BOZ (talk) 00:51, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment This is where we come to one of the problems with this article's creation. Its not signficant enough for inclusion, but doesn't have a definative enough destination page to be a useful redirect either. If there is a choice between the two, Phantom eagle makes more sense. Due to his lack of appearances its a bigger part of that character's history than Union Jack's. Even with this choice, the redirect is more awkward than helpful though.

 * Comment Redirecting to List of Marvel Comics teams and organizations seems to be exceptable to me. Stephen Day (talk) 02:55, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I thought so. :)  If you're comfortable with it, you can withdraw the nomination and we can do a redirect, or you can wait to see how the consensus goes. BOZ (talk) 03:19, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
 * How do I withdraw a nomination? Stephen Day (talk) 03:26, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Not sure - I think you just need to say it somewhere here, as the nominator, and then an admin will close it? Maybe make a note after your opening statement. If it's clear that you intend to redirect and no one's objecting, the AFD close should be uncontroversial. BOZ (talk) 03:28, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Notability for this fictional entity hasn't been established. Only one reference, and it's a primary source. Since it fails WP:FICT, it should go. -- Mikeblas (talk) 21:16, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Redirect per above; not enough notability to establish worth as own article. Master of Puppets   Call me MoP! ☺  02:50, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
