Poison Bite

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Article topic is really obscure. Delete due to not meeting requirements in Notability NotARealWord (talk) 10:57, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - It has lots of references, and it's a comic book character who has appeared in comics by 3 different companies. Seems to have a lot of history for an "obscure" character. Mathewignash (talk) 12:15, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - Like I mentioned at Articles for deletion/Shokaract, I cannot see how this is more notable than Serpentera or Evil Emperor Zurg. Which did not meet the notability criteria. Seriously, if this stuff were enough, than a lot of other subjects (like the aforementioned Zurg) would have deserved their own article. NotARealWord (talk) 13:27, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete There may be a lot of referances,, but they all look likem they are not RS.Slatersteven (talk) 14:48, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. No real sources, no real world significance. J Milburn (talk) 19:07, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I am not taking sides here except most of you are right about the sources of the articles. But what I come in here to say that all the rest of the articles that are being nominated for deletion should probably be better off redirected and merged (with minor detail) somewhere than deleted.

 * Keep I agree with Mathewignash. Various comic book companies have used this character in different Transformer series.   D r e a m Focus  23:15, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Alright, and where are the reliable sources covering the topic? J Milburn (talk) 23:22, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete- we need more than blogs, Transformers wikis and primary sources to establish notability. Waving your arms around going "it's important! it's important!" doesn't cut it; talk is cheap. Reyk  YO!  03:59, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - per WP:GNG, no significant reliable independent coverage. Claritas § 13:42, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, no evidence of notability has been provided. Black Kite (t) (c) 13:50, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Note: The article under discussion here has been flagged for rescue by the Article Rescue Squadron, with no explanation as to why this article should be rescued and how that could happen (per ARS instructions).    Snotty Wong   spill the beans 16:42, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - No reliable sources = no article.   Snotty Wong   spill the beans 16:42, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete really, really, really obscure, even within the Transformers universe. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  23:13, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Centralize discussion and merge and redirect as accordingly decided by Articles for deletion/Transformers centralized discussion. There are so many articles, surely some of them can be lumped. — Code  Hydro  13:40, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to List of Beast Wars characters pursuant to the guidelines for elements within a notable fictional work listed at Notability (fiction). No need to destroy the article or its history as the character may become more significant with future Transformer projects. Inniverse (talk) 14:17, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge The actual choice is between merge and keep; it seems to me there is not quite enough about this particular character for a separate article.    DGG ( talk ) 02:53, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete despite proposed exception to WP:N at WP:Notability (fiction), that exception has failed. No evidence to WP:verify notability of this character. Would also support a merge if it will help reach a consensus. Shooterwalker (talk) 21:35, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Its been shown time and time again the so called "sources" on this and many other Transformers articles are unreliable :See "Reliable sources for Transformers" Dwanyewest (talk) 01:44, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
