Non-notable device from a video game, fails WP:N. In addition, WP:NOT a video game guide. Also fails WP:V for lack of sources. Chardish 17:50, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete as cruftilicious content... Though I'm sure there's gotta be a Fallout Wiki somewhere which would love to have this. Cheers, Lankybugger ○ Yell ○ 20:55, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

 * comment I'm undecided on this one, because it's core to the 'look and feel' of a very notable series, and plays a major part in the plot. Perhaps a redirect is in order, and as far as I know it does exist on the fallout wiki, but it seems at least as notable as other fictional devices.  I understand that WP:othercrapexists isn't a valid argument, but on the other hand, the existance of articles like this in other universes (and their retention) speaks to me of an emergent consensus.  If an article on Judge Dredd's pistol exists, well, again I understand that it's not a strictly valid argument, but perhaps in the fashion of other series we should create an article on "Fictional Technology in the Fallout Series" and include the PipBoy 2000, the G.E.C.K., FEV, ect.

 * Redirect per Mister Manticore. I knew exactly what this was the moment I read the words - despite not having played a Fallout game in years. But at the end of the day, it's just a PDA that the player character uses and it's only 'important' in the sense that it's as memorable as the next aspect of the Fallout world. Fansite or fan-wiki material. QuagmireDog 04:39, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
