General Morden

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This character does not establish notability independent of the video game series. Without coverage in reliable third party sources, it is just made up of unnecessary plot summary and original research. TTN (talk) 18:51, 14 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of video game related deletions. TTN (talk) 19:08, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Metal Slug (series), where all the pertinent information is. Not to mention this article is more about his right-hand man than it is about the villian himself (which is about two paragraphs, tops). Nifboy (talk) 19:27, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Almost entirely plot summary and in-universe detail. Doubtful that this character specifically has ever received substantial coverage in reliable secondary sources. Doctorfluffy (robe and wizard hat) 15:01, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 01:09, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete — More original research and plot summaries. MuZemike (talk) 05:24, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
 * merge As main antagonist, might be worth an article except that the material could be easily merged, so it's the simplest solution. No reason given why merge is inappropriate, no reason given why redirect is inappropriate. Therefore, no reason to delete, as there are preferred alternatives.

 * Keep or merge per everyone. Needs to exist in some capacity.  --63.3.1.1 (talk) 23:19, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge any worthwhile information into the his respective Metal Slug game(s). --Patar knight - chat/contributions 04:45, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
 * (Delete and) redirect to Metal Slug (series), where everything worthwhile already seems to be covered. I agree with the nom otherwise. – sgeureka t•c 18:53, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
