List of fictional revolutions and coups

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This is a list of random examples with only unsourced information or primary information. The few sources are only discussing the concept in passing, or recapping WP:PLOT information, which is insufficient to meet WP:NOT. Maybe an article about the overall concept of revolutionary fiction could be notable, but "list of incidents" is an WP:INDISCRIMINATE topic that fundamentally cannot meet WP:LISTN or WP:GNG, due to it being a ubiquitous and vaguely defined plot device (list includes all kinds of military and political actions), and due to a lack of sources describing this concept in direct detail.

 * Delete Entirely WP:OR. WP:TNT may also definitely apply here.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 21:04, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete as too broad. There are way too many examples to make a meaningful list. Clarityfiend (talk) 23:15, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - There is not a single source being used in this article. Regardless on whether or not the concept of fictional revolutions in general could potentially be notable, this list is completely made up of WP:ORIGINALRESEARCH and should not be retained.

 * Delete per nom. The single source used in this 60k article appears to be a blog, so basically all the content here appears to be WP:OR. Even if sources can be found discussing this concept as a group to satisfy WP:LISTN I think what is currently here is a good candidate for WP:TNT. 192.76.8.81 (talk) 01:48, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. Entirely WP:OR. Ajf773 (talk) 02:52, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Unsourced, indiscriminate list of fictional events, not unlike the many other "List of fictional X" articles we've deleted over the years. –LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄ ) 05:07, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete this list is indiscriminate, it even includes some corporate actions that would never meet any standard definition of inclusion even if the words are occasionally used by analogy.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:48, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment This list has existed since 16 July 2005.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:49, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete This is a WP:INDISCRIMINATE collection of fictional events. Also, it is incomplete (under his eye). 122.60.173.107 (talk) 20:48, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: With prejudice. Undiscriminating collection of trivia. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here  09:41, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
