 * Comment: How is redirecting/merging to List of Tekken media not preferable to deletion? Regards So  Why  11:02, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. My comment above nonwithstanding, have you actually looked for sources? A quick G-search nets quite a lot of relevant RS coverage, for example:

 * Redirect to List of Tekken media Current article is an extreme WP:ADVERT violation combined with fancruft, and the game is only out in the world's secondary markets rather than worldwide.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 13:41, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
 * WP:UGLY, WP:FANCRUFT and WP:ITSLOCAL are all not only not valid reasons for deletion, the first two actually violate policy. The last part is not even true (see the sources cited above). Do you have any arguments not based on the current state of the article but on the potential? Regards So  Why  13:49, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment I see no potential; it's pretty much a copy of the game merely optimized for a small touchscreen. There isn't anything new and unique involving this version of the game (notwithstanding DLC/microtransactions). The article is pretty much the PR copied to here, which is unacceptable. Thus, a redirect.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 14:06, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
 * How is text that can be fixed a reason for deletion? It takes literally five seconds to remove the problematic text and leave a viable stub. Why don't you think this game is notable on it's own considering the amount of coverage in reliable third-party sources? Regards So  Why  14:25, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep - per sources found by SoWhy, and additional ones I found below. I mean, to be clear, virtually none of it is sourced or written in an encyclopedic manner currently. But it easily could be, and AFD is WP:NOTCLEANUP. The nomination itself is fundamentally wrong - its meets the WP:GNG. I recommend hacking it down to a sourced paragraph or so, and then people can decide on the talk page if it warrants a page or a merge. Sergecross73   msg me  14:50, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
