Meta Knight
AfDs for this article:


 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Sources at reception sec doesn't really talk about the character. The only usable sources were about him being banned at Smash Bros, nothing else. Also, I'm more concerned that most people cared about the GAR situation (another guy at the talk page, like can we end this?) at the past unlike its notability, hence I decided to afd the page.

 * Merge to Characters of the Kirby series. I think some of the most decent sources include This and this and there is also a mention here, but it doesn't strike me as a character who is known very well outside of being banned in Smash. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 15:17, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Merge per above...as much as one would think Meta Knight would be notable, it does make sense he's not: what can really be said about the character? The Smash Bros. stuff only goes so far, and even in the original AfD, there was great difficulty in finding sources with most asserting "there had to be some" for a character that was already 15 years old at that point.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 09:24, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge to Characters of the Kirby series. The current sources do not demonstrate notability of the character and a Google search yields no significant coverage as far as I can see. Fieryninja (talk) 14:04, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge per all. Coverage doesn't pass the WP:SIGCOV needed for a separate article, but there is a good target to WP:PRESERVE some of the content. Shooterwalker (talk) 15:14, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep - Has a good bit of coverage mainly for being banned in tournaments. KatoKungLee (talk) 15:59, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
