Marvel Land (Disney)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article is largely based on rumors and speculation. What Wikipedia is not states "speculation and rumor, even from reliable sources, are not appropriate encyclopedic content." The first source, a Wall Street Journal blog post, could be considered a reliable source to verify that John Tsang stated Hong Kong Disneyland "will add an area featuring “Marvel heroes”". This source does not state the area will be called "Marvel Land" nor the stated opening date of 2017. The second source is a Blogspot post which would not be considered a reliable source, and therefore cannot verify that "Marvel Land" is being installed at Walt Disney Studios Park in 2023. Although other reliable sources could potentially be found to improve this article, they would only be verifying the facts that a) Tsang stated the park would be getting something themed to Marvel, or b) there are rumors and speculation, not that there is any merit to it.

 * Delete - a projected part of a theme park set to open in 2017/2023 is way too soon. Ansh666 08:07, 11 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom; too soon for an article as sources to date have yet to confirm the land and/or provide significant information about it.  Gong   show  03:12, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
