This article has no notability of its own, and so it is just an in-universe repetition of plot points from the three Metroid Prime game articles. It is entirely duplicative, and has no encyclopedic value. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 23:18, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Besides, as you can see from the last Article for Deletion nomination, the article was deleted, so it shouldn't have been recreated in the first place without the demonstration of lots of references. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 23:20, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * It went through a small deletion review, so it was brought back. TTN (talk) 23:24, 26 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge/Redirect/Delete - This is a non-notable character that needs little to no coverage on this site. Go with whichever one gets the most attention. TTN (talk) 23:24, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge what little information (probably the Dark Samus bit) can fit in Metroid (series) with little issue, then Delete the article. I understand that the article's original deletion was overturned due to the lack of people involved in voting, but that doesn't make this article any less non-notable than before.

 * Delete fails WP:Plot and a ton of other polices/guidelines. Ridernyc (talk) 00:20, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete with much reluctance - only sign of notability a quick Google threw up was http://www.comicbookbin.com/Top_5_Female_Antagonists-003.html - if not deleted, I feel the article should probably be renamed to Dark Samus as any notability comes from that incarnation of the character, rather than the Metroid Prime incarnation, which is merely a final boss in a single video game, remarkable only for its reincarnation as Dark Samus. It's also not implausible that Dark Samus will develop further notability in future - in which case it should be revisited then. Rmsgrey (talk) 17:00, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I've played the games Neither Metroid Prime, nor Dark Samus are very notable. Both of them can have very minor mentions in other articles. Ridernyc (talk) 23:32, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as per nom. -- MightyWarrior 17:15, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
