The result was   keep with leave to speedy renominate. Technically not an SK1 candidate because the nominator did provide a rationale but a very poor one. Ron Ritzman (talk) 01:31, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

It's been left like that for a couple of years now... nobody is even fixing it Godzilladude123 (talk) 16:51, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Close - The user sent it to PROD and AfD. Only the former is necessary (for now).  Salvidrim!   18:31, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment. I oppose the proposed deletion because it's not clear to me what the problem with this article (about a videogame character) is, nor does the nomination here explain it. If there is a problem with the article that requires deletion, that needs to be explained further. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 19:56, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep - Nominator puts forth no rationale for deletion.  Salvidrim!   20:22, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Speedy Keep - A valid argument for deletion hasn't been advanced in the nomination. See also WP:DEL-REASON. Northamerica1000(talk) 03:03, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep - No rationale given and is non-obvious. - Rushyo  Talk  10:56, 20 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Comment - I know the user didn't give a reason, but look the tags at the top, and the sources at the bottom. There's not a single third party source used, and it's all in-universe plot summary. I haven't looked for any sources, and I'm unfamiliar with this character so I can't say off the top of my head if it should be deleted, or just cleaned up, but it's pretty clear to see what the issue is here...

 * Let's try clean-up before ditching it. There's at least one independent RS. I'm not saying it would easily pass notability guidelines.   Salvidrim!   16:13, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm fine with that, I just felt we should discuss the article more than the nominator's shortcomings... Sergecross73   msg me   16:28, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
