List of fictional toxins
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article only has 2 references, both of them primary. The rest is unreferenced, non-notable listcruft, with some examples being incredibly specific to the point non fans would not care, such as one off examples of video game items. Practically none of the listed items have their own standalone articles. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 17:24, 18 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep The topic is notable. For example, see Reaction!: Chemistry in the Movies or Poison and Poisoning in Science, Fiction and Cinema.   WP:LISTCRUFT is not policy.  Andrew D. (talk) 18:10, 19 July 2018 (UTC)
 * That is splitting hairs, WP:LISTCRUFT implies that it is predominantly composed of WP:OR, which it is. The article is almost entirely original research and while a potentially notable topic in its own right, it would fare better as a new prose article than an indiscriminate unencyclopedic list.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 20:30, 19 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - This is even less noteworthy, less encyclopedic, than the already deleted "List of fictional medicines and drugs" ; see that AfD -- DexterPointy (talk) 21:49, 19 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete per rationale by Dexterpointy, just as fancrufty as List of fictional medicines and drugs and List of comic book drugs. Ajf773 (talk) 08:39, 20 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete- if anything, this is even cruftier and more poorly sourced than List of fictional medicines and drugs. Reyk YO! 15:11, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
