Viruses in the Resident Evil series
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Notability (fiction): No reliable third-party publications on the subject. The book biohazard archives was published by Capcom, the developer of the game series, and thus is not an independent source. The Resident Evil Archives book is a translation of the Japanese version published by BradyGAMES in North America. The other three books mentioned by Crotalus horridus in the previous discussion do not deal with the viruses but merely mention them while discussing the game and movie stories. If more sources turn up, an inclusion in a new section of the series article might be reasonable. Prime Blue (talk) 18:58, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete Besides unsourced as the nominator said the topic is profoundly trivial. I would also bet that this article is longer and more in depth than many on real life viruses, which affect the lives of millions of real people. Wolfview (talk) 20:00, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - I can find no significant coverage that tackles this topic. Should be handled in the same way that other sources do - in the plot synopsis of the relevant games. Marasmusine (talk) 10:37, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
