Vii

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Besides a single Engadget review (the "Wii vs. Vii First Shot" source), the sources appear to either be unreliable (such as GoNintendo) or trivial mentions such as minor announcements/mentions, making it fail WP:GNG. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 00:35, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails WP:GNG, no substantial coverage. The Banner  talk 15:48, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Wii with further discussion of knockoff Wii consoles based on these sources:       - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 20:47, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Relisting comment: No consensus. Article page moves can occur if an article is Kept but can not be carried out by a closer because it's an editing decision. If you want an article moved, first vote to Keep it then a move can be discussed. But right now, we also have arguments to Delete and Redirect so no consensus exists. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 01:01, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Redirect to VII as R from other capitalisation. Charcoal feather (talk) 01:15, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Well, if it's redirected it will have to be moved to Vii (console) beforehand. A new redirect at this name can be created if necessary (though it's not actually necessary) ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:16, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Moving it to Vii (console) is a good idea. Dr. Precursor (talk) 23:36, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete - Doesn't have the sources to meet the WP:GNG. The Wii is already an WP:FA without a mention of the Vii, so I believe that shows that's it's of little importance of the Wii and not worth a redirect. Sergecross73   msg me  14:14, 6 July 2024 (UTC))
 * While I believe the Wii article may be in good shape, that doesn't necessarily mean it is complete. There's multiple quality sources discussing the creation of knockoffs of the Wii, so I don't think it'd be a problem to mention this fact and the existence of the Vii in particular. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 09:26, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I hear you. FA's are not perfect. But I think it's telling that an article that has existed for almost 2 decades, and has had enough experienced editor's interest to get it to FA status, never felt it was important enough to include this... Sergecross73   msg me  03:11, 8 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Redirect to List of Wii clones. Partially because of the sources by Cukie Gherkin, there are enough sources for Wii knockoffs as a whole to be notable, if not the Vii alone. Dr. Precursor (talk) 14:35, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
 * You can't redirect to an article that doesn't exist, it'll just be deleted. Also don't delete comments and write new things. WP:STRIKE the old comments if they dont apply anymore. Sergecross73   msg me  20:28, 6 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete, If a Wii clone section with a mention to Vii is ever written at Wii, this can be recreated and redirected there. --Mika1h (talk) 13:40, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * That’s a good suggestion. I may work on something related to Wii clones. Dr. Precursor (talk) 15:03, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
