List of fighting styles in Fist of the North Star
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This is a list of plot elements that does establish notability independent of its series. The main article already has an overview of the of the actual topic of the fighting styles, so this is just extremely unnecessary. Without coverage in reliable third party sources, it is just made up of unnecessary plot summary, original research, and trivial details. TTN (talk) 21:13, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I am also nominating the following related pages because they are also lists of minor techniques that do not need coverage past the brief summary already in the main article:

 * Keep as per Harmil's arguments in the previous Afd. Edward321 (talk) 23:42, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep I agree with Harmil. The Japanese version of this article is quite expansive and is a heavily substantial topic in Japanese pop-culture fiction. The martial arts are the focal points of the series and is not simply just plot points. The potential for this article is clearly there, and is in need of expansion, not pointless (yet easy work, as always) deletion.SashaNein (talk) 15:46, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep the list, per the above. Merge/Redirect the two styles to the list -- how much (if any) additional information to copy during the process, I leave to editors who know the series better. —Quasirandom (talk) 19:53, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
