Heat vision

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

This is an expired prod that I declined to delete, because it's inevitable that there would be further discussion. Orginial nominator's rationale was "Heat vision does not meet wikipedia notability standards for a work of fiction. Essentially the topic does not seem to be covered in any secondary sources. (The single reference on the page is to a primary source.) The article could essentially be summarized in a single sentence in individual characters' articles in a section about their powers." This is a procedural listing, I am taking no position at this time. Xymmax So let it be written   So let it be done  20:01, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete. Each fictional "superhero" has a different variation of "heat vision" so there is no sense in an article covering them - it should be contained in the main character articles.  On its own "heat vision" is not notable.  Unusual? Quite  TalkQu  20:27, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. I made the original prod and stand by my original assessment. Khalfani  Khaldun  22:19, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of comic book superpowers. (Emperor (talk) 23:15, 15 October 2008 (UTC))
 * Comment perhaps a dab might be in order with links to the superpower, infrared vision and thermal imaging.-- Lenticel ( talk ) 23:51, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes that looks like a good option. (Emperor (talk) 16:19, 16 October 2008 (UTC))


 * Create DAB per Lenticel/Emperor Artw (talk) 06:29, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect to list of powers. That article's a mish-mash of trivia, fancruft, and poor writing. It lacks reasonable citation and real-world content. ThuranX (talk) 14:10, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
