 * – ( View AfD View log )

Fails WP:GNG, and violates our guidelines on coverage of fiction. Merging of content seems an unlikely solution as the list List of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED mobile weapons has been deleted via a discussion. There is no significant coverage in reliable third party sources. Anthem of joy (talk) 17:02, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails WP:N. Lacks significant coverage in multiple reliable and independent sources. Edison (talk) 15:18, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete: Per nomination. As the article is unreferenced, there is no verifiability, so there is no evidence that the fictional weapon meets the general notability guideline or that it can be anything other than a plot-only description of a fictional work. A quick search engine test shows nothing to presume different. Jfgslo (talk) 01:46, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Can't find any non-trivial reliable source coverage. Probably better suited for a Wikia project. Qrsdogg (talk) 16:52, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Article is not appropriate for Wikipedia. WP:NOT mentions the idea of weapons lists in terms of games, but it really is good advice for all toys and fiction. In general, these end up being WP:DIRECTORY style databases with very little context, and tend to run afoul of the same issue as WP:NOTPLOT. The spirit of policy calls for deleting this material, as does previous consensus at similar AFDs (see above). But if this is disputed, it might be worth further clarification (and discussion if necessary) at WP:NOT.

 * Delete Notability issues as no references WP:GNG and per above - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 04:47, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
