Redirect was restored by an editor, but page is still unsourced fancruft. More of a fit for Wikia. Such a page could probably be notable but requires a complete rewrite with citations from reliable sources. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 13:21, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Redirect - This is certainly a notable topic. Etna and Prinnies already have dedicated entries. But this article is pretty much all cruft, with some bad writing included.  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 13:54, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Redirect Large mass of unsourced fancruft, most non-notable characters who definitely do not have this level of detail and coverage. Belongs on Wikia. Essentially, restore to redirect for the same reasons as before. Since being unredirected, zero substantial changes or sources have been added. -- ferret (talk) 20:44, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Redirect - Overly detailed info better suited for a Disgaea Wikia, and mostly unsourced too (which would help its case some if it were). ~ Dissident93 (talk) 21:17, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

Disgaea is a popular video games series and should be put in a draft instead of being deleted Jabunra (talk) 23:00, 9 March 2018 (UTC)JabunraJabunra (talk) 23:00, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Doesn't matter if it's popular, they need significant enough coverage from reliable sources instead. A Draft changes nothing as the same problems would forever exist. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 03:57, 10 March 2018 (UTC)

Well you can't say that complete sure on what just said I believe it should be put in a draft Jabunra (talk) 00:13, 11 March 2018 (UTC)JabunraJabunra (talk) 00:13, 11 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete or Redirect - I have no real objection to a redirect, but I'm doubtful that this is "a notable topic". Nearly all of the characters in the article are sorted by the individual game they appear in, and most of the sources in the series article itself deal strictly with the individual games, which suggests to me that if we are to have coverage on Disagea characters not notable enough to have their own article, it would make the most sense to put it in the articles for the individual series installments.--Martin IIIa (talk) 17:35, 10 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Redirect - I don't think it should be deleted - it's a long running series noted for its odd-ball characters, so I imagine something could be written up on it, but I'm pretty sure 99% of the current article is unusable, so I don't think keeping or draftifying makes sense either. Redirect for now, but no objection to someone spinning it back out someday if someone wants to actually write an encyclopedic article about it. Sergecross73   msg me  14:36, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Redirect. Restore the 2015 redirect by to Disgaea. --TheSandDoctor (talk) 04:09, 15 March 2018 (UTC)
