For the same reasons out lined with regard to Articles for deletion/Flash (DC animated universe), Articles for deletion/Wonder Woman (DC animated universe), Articles for deletion/Blade (Marvel animated universe), and Articles for deletion/Doctor Strange (Marvel animated universe). This article is a creation of original research that pulls information from various Wikipedia articles on comic book characters. Specifically:
 * The lead is from S.H.I.E.L.D., Bullets 2, 3, and 4.
 * Sally Blevins is from Skids (comics), full section.
 * Carol Danvers is from Ms. Marvel, 1at bullet.
 * James Howlett is from Wolverine in other media, full section.
 * Gabe Jones is from Gabe Jones, 1st bullet.
 * Jamie Madrox is from Jamie Madrox, 1st bullet.

 * Jennifer Walters is from She-Hulk, bullets 3 and 4.
 * Sam Wilson is from Falcon (comics), 1st bullet.
 * Sharon Carter is from Sharon Carter, 1st bullet.

 * Red Skull is from Red Skull, bullets 4 and 5.
 * Silver Samuari is from Silver Samurai, 1st bullet.
 * Scorpio is from Scorpio (comics), 1st bullet.
 * Zodiac is from Zodiac (comics), full section.

It is worth noting that a number of the copied sections lack any indication that the character or characters appeared as a part of or in conection to SHIELD. Worse, a number of the "agents" weren't even agents in the comics until well after the last animated episode aired.

This, as as with the listed AfD examples and Superman (DC animated universe), is part of a recurring "bad content" issue where articles are fabricated in this manner. Frankly, on top of the OR issue, they are an unneeded and ill-advised content fork. We have had a number of like content fork lists and articles come through AfD and PROD from this editor, the bulk of which have resulted in the removal of the composite articles. This is becoming disruptive - the discovery of new or additional like "articles" after the last batch has been deleted and having to go through the same presentation that "Yes, it's content fork. Yes, it's a bad fork. And yes it is a carbon copy of already existing material." J Greb (talk) 15:21, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

 * I agree with J Greb delete as per nominator Dwanyewest (talk) 16:21, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete as composite of information (rightfully) elsewhere. --FuriousFreddy (talk) 16:46, 17 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep: Lists, categories and navigation templates are synergistic—the benefits of their redundancy are covered in WP:CLN. This is a useful and informative list and meets the guidelines for inclusion per WP:LIST. Andy14and16 (talk) 03:56, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
