Nobita and the Animal Planet 2008

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

Alternate version of a article that was has previously been through AFD (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Doraemon The Musical: Nobita and the Animal Planet) and was merged with List of Doraemon media. Article is for a stage play that ran for only a few months in a single country in a foreign language. I think it is telling that the Japanese wiki itself has no equivalent for the article - some information is included on the page there for the original film version but it does not have it's own page as we do here. I'd advocate merging with the film article here, but we don't have one - it redirects back to this article. Shiroi Hane (talk) 20:44, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Given this is part of the Doraemon franchise, why delete instead of merge or redirect to List of Doraemon media (or other suitable target)? —Quasirandom (talk) 14:35, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Another version of this article was already AFD'd and merged into List of Doraemon media, which is why I opened with "Alternate version of a article that was has previously been through AFD (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Doraemon The Musical: Nobita and the Animal Planet) and was merged with List of Doraemon media".

 * Right, so why not do the same with this? Why propose it for deletion instead? —Quasirandom (talk) 04:08, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
 * The other article has already been merged and that one had the benefit of not having a confusing start as a film article. There's no point redirecting as the title is not even correct (2008 does not feature in it anywhere, neither does 2009 which was in the original article title).

 * Since the nominator hasn't explained his rationale for deleting instead, merge per the precident of a previous incarnation under another title to List of Doraemon media. Onward. —Quasirandom (talk) 17:17, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete or redirect. The only thing that could be merged to List of Doraemon media would be the one-line plot summary, but the list currently doesn't list the plot summaries of other media. – sgeureka t•c 06:30, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
