List of After Colony technology

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

Original research based entirely on plot summaries. No evidence of notability via coverage by reliable sources that is independent of the series or its producers. Fails WP:FICT. IP disputed prod without giving a reason. --Farix (Talk) 12:31, 31 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Merge to After Colony. Not deserving of its own page, but there's some material on there that's important to the series, so it should be kept somewhere.kuwabaratheman (talk) 18:05, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment After Colony is more of an overview of the various Mobile Suit Gundam Wing spin-off and followup releases and has a merge proposal to merge or redirect it into the parent article. The technology article wouldn't fit into either articles. --Farix (Talk) 01:07, 1 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete, I have no idea how to get a hold of the sources for these, and they are far less notable than the UC or CE technology since the series only contains one TV series and one OVA/movie with a few short manga. The technology is also almost totally irrelevant to the story, maybe the Gundanium alloy part can be mentioned in the List of Mobile suit or the main article, but not as a separate article.

 * Merge to After Colony, since it can serve as a universe overview. 70.55.86.100 (talk) 10:36, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment There is a 'Gundam Wing Technical Manual' around that could be used as a source. It was published, and in English even. Jtrainor (talk) 06:50, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, I am talking about secondary sources that support its notability, not where the information came from, as I recall, a lot could be even found in the gundamofficial.com site. MythSearchertalk 14:14, 2 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep Come on people a lot of work went into this and its highly useful.  A lot of terms redirect here and its going to leave a hole if taken away.  If a List of Problems Solved by MacGuyver can be praised as one of the wonderful things about Wikipedia surely one shouldn't discriminate against other genres. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sturmovik (talk • contribs) 18:09, November 2, 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS is not a valid reason to keep an article nor does it trump core policies, such as No original research and Verifiability, which this article fails both. This article also fails WP:NOT, another policy, and has not received any coverage from reliable sources that is independent of the series or its producers and publishers (WP:NOTE). --Farix (Talk) 20:44, 2 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep and Rewrite: Actually all it really needs is to be rewritten since, a. The Gundamiam bit is the real problem on the article since it is more with theories and was not originally meant to be part of the article. b. the other three parts just need to be reduced a bit to remove excessive plots and I already know that Episodes 19-26, 44, and 45 are examples of episodes where accurate details can be found to prove this verifibility and though it may no longer be possible the tech stuff from the old DVD releases. c. even if this page is deleted it won't be a total loss because Gundam wiki has them and that wikia is good alternate for deletion since it is a good way to kill some of the fanboy protests. -67.171.250.39 (talk) 21:00, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
 * This is not helping in any sense. I have tried to protect various Gundam related articles, but this one is really not that notable.  The W series does not focus a lot on the technology like the UC, CE and AD series, which got a lot of plot time discussing them.  These technologies can easily by merged to the main article and the mobile units article without any problem(and actually most of the info are already there).
