 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was   redirect to Xerxes where there is an entry. Delete Von Braun (starship). I will userfy both articles to User:Prod/XERXES and User:Prod/Von Braun for transwiki. Black Kite 22:39, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

XERXES

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

This article fails to meet most of the criteria laid out in WP:N, particularly significant coverage. XERXES is a minor character in System Shock 2 and fails to establish adequate notability or outside coverage for an entire article. Nobody has even edited the article since May '08. This article should be deleted. Noj r (talk) 04:17, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related page because the Von Braun has problems with WP:N. The starship was the setting for System Shock 2, but outside the game, it has received no coverage. Nobody has done significant work on this article in months either. Von Braun fails to meet notability and should be deleted. -- Noj r (talk) 04:30, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Transwiki to a gaming wiki or Delete - wholly non-notable fictional character, while from a rather well-known video game, is otherwise unremarkable. &mdash;/M endaliv /2¢/Δ's/ 09:52, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment and the same for the starship. &mdash;/M endaliv /2¢/Δ's/ 09:52, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * System Shock 2 is one of my most favorite games of all time. I am a complete System Shock 2 weenie.  But it seems to me that any coverage on this topic belongs in the main article, and I have a hard time imagining anyone searching on "Xerxes" and meaning the spaceship.  So I say delete both Xerxes and Von Braun with no transwiki.  Nandesuka (talk) 11:34, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Or better yet, redirect to the Xerxes disamb page, which is pretty much advocating deletion. MuZemike (talk) 17:39, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * …and delete Von Braun for the same problems as XERXES but is not a plausible search term, so redirecting would be useless. MuZemike (talk) 23:56, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect XERXES as a plausible search term, Delete Von Braun for no notability. Pretty much as per MuZemike. The Man in the Rock (talk) 02:12, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge or if necessary redirect. This is something to discuss on the relevant talk pages, not here. DGG (talk) 17:07, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment - I'd like to copy this over to StrategyWiki, but Special:Export seems to be disabled currently. Please don't delete this at least until next weekend. -- Prod (Talk) 02:06, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
 * You could ask admin for userfication so you can transwiki it when they do get back online. MuZemike (talk) 07:39, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
