List of YuYu Hakusho chapters

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Wikipedia is not an episode guide, nor a list of indiscriminate information. Also this article doesn't really contain any information Pilotbob (talk) 05:50, 24 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Strong keep - notable list of items for a well known manga series. See List of Naruto chapters (Part I), List of Naruto chapters (Part II), and List of Claymore chapters (all featured lists). Cleanup is in order, not deletion. Sephiroth BCR  ( Converse ) 05:53, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Anime and manga-related deletions.   —  Sephiroth BCR  ( Converse ) 05:53, 24 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep Even though the title of these articles says "chapters", these pages pretty much just focus on things at a per-volume level. It's pretty comparable to a list of episodes. It's a reasonable depth of summary that also has the potential to include other real world facts about the manga. -- Ned Scott 05:58, 24 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep, but needs expanding. Dlae  │  here  15:42, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per all foregoing, although a rename may be in order... --Gwern (contribs) 18:17 24 December 2007 (GMT)


 * What rename would that be? It follows the naming convention set for such lists. The only notable article that deviated from this was List of Naruto manga volumes, which was because List of Naruto chapters (Part I) and List of Naruto chapters (Part II) were split from it. As this is not the case, the article's name is appropriate. Sephiroth BCR  ( Converse ) 18:26, 24 December 2007 (UTC)


 * List of volumes, maybe? -- Ned Scott 05:35, 27 December 2007 (UTC)


 * It was ultimately decided that chapters was the name of choice. Again, "volumes" was only used in List of Naruto manga volumes because List of Naruto chapters (Part I) and List of Naruto chapters (Part II) were created, thus removing all chapters from that particular article (as only a table of volumes was left). Volumes are just the organizational tool used to divide the chapters, and offer useful methods of organizing plot summary. Sephiroth BCR  ( Converse ) 05:46, 27 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep per Sephiroth BCR - cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 11:36, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and clean up. Many lists of this type have achieved FL quality, so why can't this one? --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 16:46, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Nom shouldn't involve making up WP policy out of thin air. WP:EPISODE shows the nomination's first statement is nonsense and the complete opposite of actual WP policy. Respectfully asking for this to be CLOSED. 75.65.91.142 (talk) 02:28, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * It's a reasonable conclusion given the state the article is in. There's no sense getting mad at someone for nominating an article for deletion. -- Ned Scott 05:35, 27 December 2007 (UTC)


 * I note for the record that the nominator does not know what he's talking about, as he is claiming that an article about a comic book series is about a television series. Futhermore, a list of chapters/volumes / episodes/seasons / players/teams / and/so/on is EXACTLY the sort of encyclopedic information that is a) not indiscriminate, in that it's very precisedly defined what's included, and b) is strongly desired by the relevant projects overseeing those sorts of lists. Not to mention strongly desired by Wikpedia, given the number of such lists are listed as FL. Strong keep and a strong request to the nominator that he Pay Attention when nominating. —Quasirandom (talk) 04:01, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * It's understandable that the nom did not know what exactly was going on, giving that the article is so bare, and that many people are not aware that YuYu Hakusho was a manga before it was an anime. -- Ned Scott 05:35, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Given that "manga" is in the first line, the headings are by numbered volumes, and the title has "chapters," I find it hard to believe that anyone who is taking care wouldn't be able to tell this article is about a print rather than a broadcast medium. This nomination does not show signs of being made with due consideration. —Quasirandom (talk) 19:32, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * There was a time I didn't know what a "manga" was, but I knew what anime was. *Shrug*. I've talked with a lot of people that "sort of" understand anime, and I don't think it's unreasonable to think it was just a minor misunderstanding. -- Ned Scott 07:33, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * It's not like this is the first time the nom has rushed into an AfD with having little to no knowledge of filing an acceptable nomination. This lengthy entry on the Administrators' noticeboard and his talk page alone shows that he has done this on numerous occasions. If this were a first offense, I would have no problem, but the nom has repeatedly done this and it's getting to be disruptive (again). 75.65.91.142 (talk) 08:55, 29 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep, reformat, expand, and rename to List of YuYu Hakusho manga volumes. --Farix (Talk) 19:50, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I went ahead and reformatted the entire article. It still needs expansion and filling in of the details. But given the track record of similar lists, there is good reason to assume that this list has the potential of becoming a featured list. --Farix (Talk) 18:02, 28 December 2007 (UTC)


 * keep as per everyone else. Just needs a bit of work. H*bad (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 07:01, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
