InuYasha yōkai list

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Unnotable list of fancruft that fails WP:FICT and is mostly minute WP:PLOT details. Redundant as well, since any notable yokai that appear here are also already better covered in List of InuYasha characters. Collectonian 00:10, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep for now. It looks like the guideline that allowed many pages of characters to be consolidated into these lists was changed, without being well advertized, back in August 2007. One editor, in fact, changed how the policy reads, although supposedly this was a stylistic change of some sort. Since that seems unfair, we should retain these lists and return the guideline to its pre-August state, and then debate it openly later. Fee Fi Foe Fum 00:49, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep or merge: As I said at Articles for deletion/List of minor InuYasha characters, I assume that it was separated from List of InuYasha characters to avoid exceeding the old limit on the size of articles. It provides background information which is useful to those of us watching the anime or reading the manga. If it did not exist, it would be recreated in some form because there is a demand for this information. JRSpriggs 02:15, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Such minute detail belongs in a InuYasha fan site or wiki, or an anime wiki. It is not encyclopedic nor notable to include every last character, and this list just replicates data from the other two lists. Collectonian 02:31, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Stupid question: Why is it unencyclopedic to list the cast of a notable work? What is encyclopedic? —Quasirandom (talk) 01:10, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete. This is OR, or at least entirely unsourced, and although encyclopedic in scope, its not encyclopedic in content. Finally, even if you accept the argument that such lists should exist within WP, it's entirely in-universe in style. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Xymmax (talk • contribs) 17:22, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
