Post–One Year War

Not a notable topic. Can't find sources that WP:verify notability of the events after the year one war in this fictional series. Moreover it's an indiscriminate list of events since it leads to any number of articles that are based on "list of things that happened after X", such as "list of presidents after Gerald Ford" or "list of conflicts after the Franco-Prussian War".

 * Comment/Delete - You have misunderstood the scope of this article, Shooterwalker. The lead defines it as covering a precise time period in the "Universal Century" timeline, specifically the time period after the original Mobile Suit Gundam ends but before the sequal Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam begins.  It is not a "list of things that happened after X", but a "list of things that happened between X and Y".  Also, calling it the "year one war" makes me think you don't really understand the topic at all (it is the "One Year War", which lasts 1 year but takes place in year 0079, not a war taking place in year 1).  That being said, this is basically extraneous plot detail that isn't necessary to understand the works set in this time period (WP:IINFO).  The plot summary in Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory does a better job of summarizing that work without extraneous detail.  I don't think any of this excessive plot detail would improve any other article if it was merged, so it should just be deleted. Calathan (talk) 07:06, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete as practically being a timeline of fictional events, i.e. major violation of P:NOT. No evidence of WP:NOTABILITY present in the article. – sgeureka t•c 08:07, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete A plot-only description of a fictional work that does not meet the general notability guideline. Also, the article has exclusively an in-universe perspective with no real-world perspective, it has no references, it appears to be original research by synthesis and it's an unneeded content fork.

 * Merge/redirect to Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory, which is the relevant work according to Calathan. --Gwern (contribs) 17:06 7 February 2011 (GMT)
 * Delete Redirecting is not appropriate as half of the fictional time-line is based on Char's Deleted Affair manga series. There are also several other manga and novel spin-offs set in this period. (see List of Gundam manga and novels). —Farix (t &#124; c) 00:02, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
