This appears to be a test page that serves no useful purpose, and is not likely to ever become an article. We have the sandbox for testing, we shouldn't treat user subspace as a Wiki-playground.  ArcAngel    (talk) ) 05:46, 1 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Close - Black60dragon creates a sub page in his user space on 23 January 2011 to get a picture in his mind of a list of those pokemon he considers legendary pokemon and you want it deleted 9 days later because it serves no useful purpose to you? This MfD is nothing more than harassment of Black60dragon and needs to be closed. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 11:39, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak delete - I think he plans to make an actual Legendary Pokémon article, but an article with sections for each of them with info and pictures isn't how it should be made. A real Legendary Pokemon article would have a general description of how they all work, a table list of them as in List of Pokemon, and maybe reception on people complaining they are hard to catch, or overpowered in battles. What he is planning here is more of a content fork, and serves no useful purpose. Although I don't see the harm of him playing around in his userspace. As long as it is content planned to go in the mainspace, and not games, trivia, or un-encyclopedic articles. Blake (Talk·Edits) 14:13, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep I think all that's needed is to inform the user that the page does not meet notability, and should not be moved to mainspace. Other than that, he's allowed to do things in his userspace; otherwise, we should delete everyone's personal sandboxes as "wiki-playground"s.  Bramble  claw  x   01:55, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Yeah seriously I plan to make it a real aticle but im not finished yet and I would be glad to have help on it so dont delete it. Also its not the pokemon that I think are legendary its the real legendary pokemon that the makers consider legendary. Black60dragon (talk) 18:27, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, the way you are making your article, it won't be put in the mainspace. I will show you an example of what a REAL Legendary Pokemon article will look like in a sec. Blake (Talk·Edits) 18:57, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually, this is pretty much what it would look like. But cleaned up and cruft removed. The main thing is, for a subject to be notable enough for an article, it must have "significant coverage in third party reliable sources". Many Legendary Pokemon do have this, like Articuno · Zapdos · Moltres · Mewtwo · Mew · Entei · Lugia · Celebi · Latias and Latios · Rayquaza · Deoxys, but as a whole, the subject of Legendary Pokémon does not have this coverage.(or it might, but hasn't been gathered yet)
 * Also, as a side note, Unown, Lucario, and dragons(also known as Ubers) are not Legendary Pokemon. Blake (Talk·Edits) 19:06, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
