Marcus Corvinus (Underworld)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This character does not establish notability independent of Underworld (film series) through the inclusion of real world information from reliable, third party sources. Most of the information is made up of original research and unnecessary plot details. There is no current assertion for future improvement of the article, so any coverage in the plot sections of the main articles is enough detail on the character.

 * Redirect to Underworld (film). It would seem a likely search term, and if there is a character list, we should merge with that.  Tealwisp (talk) 00:04, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Underworld (film series) and merge heavily condensed plot details as per WP:FICT. If anyone objects to this title as a redirect, we can use Marcus Corvinus as the redirect instead and do some fancy merge/move combo involving both these entries. - Mgm|(talk) 00:39, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I think that's a good title for the redirect destination. Tealwisp (talk) 05:41, 3 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete Does not establish notability through significant coverage of real world context in reliable secondary sources independent of the subject. Jay32183 (talk) 06:29, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: There has been a similar discussion for another character article from the same series not so long ago listed by the same nominator. I notice that the nominator has now listed three more articles which are no different from the earlier article in terms of content. Is it possible that a joint merger/deletion discussion could be held at the film series article which would dissolve all such articles listed in Category:Underworld characters, thus ending the issue once and for all?

 * That's been attempted with other works of fiction in the past. When that happens people start complaining that the nomination is out of hand, or find a source for one character and use it as justification to keep every character article. For some reason those invalid arguments don't get ignored. Jay32183 (talk) 23:24, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I have seen that happen. But has something of that sort at least being attempted here? Or is this just a way to avoid and bypass such comments? LeaveSleaves talk 03:20, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
 * This is just to bypass that. People asking for a unified discussion don't usually seem angry, but people asking for separate ones often do. If you have to upset some one, make it the people who can handle it. Jay32183 (talk) 08:09, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
