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

This element of the Super Robot Wars series does not establish independent notability. Without coverage in reliable third party sources, this is just made up of unnecessary plot summary, game guide material, and original research. Relevant AfDs include Articles for deletion/Database (Super Robot Wars), Articles for deletion/Arado Balanga, Articles for deletion/AS Soleares/AS Alegrías, and Articles for deletion/Ruach Ganeden, Articles for deletion/Rapiéçage. All discussions resulted to deletion of the nominated articles. Magioladitis (talk) 01:56, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

 * No comment for other, but Move Masō Kishin to Super Robot Taisen Gaiden: Masō Kishin - The Lord Of Elemental. It's full game, though the setting expand beyond that one title. So it may need some heavy rewrite, but worth to keep nonetheless. L-Zwei (talk) 05:37, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
 * There is nothing here really referring to the game and do you think this game is notable? Do you know the release day at least and if any site/magasine reviewed it? -- Magioladitis (talk) 10:00, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
 * SIGH* I already include link to Gamefaqs, but fine, it's Japanese-only game released in 03/22/96. How much it's notable? As much as Fire Emblem: Thracia 776. Sure, the article is barely refer to the game, but this is pretty much ignorant of authors. Note that heading suggest that the article coverage only mecha, yet there is pretty large section for characters. It just need to change direction to be article about game instead of plot.

 * Merge to a suitable list of characters--preserving most of the content. This deals with the problem of notability, since we have no greed upon notability standard for fictional characters. As for the rest, the dame is a sufficient source for the description, this is nowhere near the detail of a gameguide, recording the obvious is not OR, and there is very little plot summary, just enough for background -- and Ring Mao contains none at all. This answers every reason proposed here for deletion. Additionally, the group nomination is incorrect, as not  all the reasons apply to all the articles. Besides that not all of them have and plot at all,  Masō Kishin is already a combination article, not one ofn a single character.  DGG (talk) 15:32, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete and salt the whole thing (or create a redirect and protect...). How many such articles have been brought or still remain to be brought to AfDs? None of the in-universe stuff is particularly notable or sourced. Isn't there a Super Robot Wars wikiproject to take care of the merging/restructuring cleanup of all this to follow the guidelines?--Boffob (talk) 17:33, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete all exactly for the same reason all the other Super robots elements were deleted.I hope this is the last bunch of them. -- nips (talk) 19:37, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete all as WP:GAMECRUFT. Just be thankful that we're not going through all the Pokemon articles instead. Marasmusine (talk) 12:29, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete all: we have an agreed upon standard for inclusion, and it's WP:N. Articles like this, which are not covered by reliable third-party sources, can't meet this guideline no matter how much they are improved. Merging non-notable articles together does not create a notable article, at least not in this case. Randomran (talk) 18:01, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
