Settings and themes of Code Geass

Settings and themes of Code Geass (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)

Fails WP:N, WP:FICT, WP:NOT#Plot, WP:WAF. Article is pure plot and unsourced original research and personal opinion. The topic of the settings of Code Geass does not have significant coverage in multiple reliable third party sources. The themes of the series belongs in the main article and ONLY if it can be sourced to reliable sources, not people's personal interpretations of the series. Nothing in this article is salvagable nor appropriate for merging to the main as it is all unsourced, excessive detail, and would add nothing to the series in terms of encyclopedic content. -- ] (] · ]) 20:20, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

• Keep. I agree that much of the page is plot and "unsourced," but this is grounds for improvement, not hasty deletion. The present article text is predominantly confirmable against the content of the television series itself, and where canon does not extend, the article explicitly states so -- I would contest that since much of the present information may be independently confirmed by any viewer of the television series, the page content cannot be considered "independent research." Further, 3rd party citable sources for the present information exist; I will be obtaining said material hopefully in a few days. The intent of the article is primarily to familiarize a reader with the concepts and settings of the series that they may not comprehend immediately; it is a nonindiscriminate informational resource that is of use, and in this respect, it does what it is intended to do. On these grounds, I ask that you withdraw the request. -- Fallacies (talk) 20:58, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

  (edit conflict) Themes can not be sourced to the series itself as it is interpretation and therefore all OR. The settings is excessive detail and a huge indiscriminate glut of info. We have a section on the world, then on character abilities (not related to settings nor theme), then back to individual countries within the world and their major cities, then a history segement, then technology, etc etc. The first anime series was 26 episodes, the second is slated to be 26. This article Bleach is a much larger series and its settings are properly, and adequately covered in its main article without this frankly ridiculous amount of detail. -- ] (] · ]) 21:07, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

• Merge anything sourced to the main article, Delete the rest. There is not reason for this to be an independent article, and lack of sourcing IS grounds for deletion. Doceirias (talk) 21:06, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
• Merge, maybe weak delete Complicated though this series may be, I do recognize the fact that it is woefully bloated, which you haven't exactly been helpful in keeping in check Fallacies. This is why I was trying to keep it slim. A large portion of it is superfluous (cities, towns, Narita, most of the terms). it could be knocked down to the basics and integrated into the main article. However, outright deletion won't help. — Trust not the Penguin (T | C) 21:10, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
• Transwiki to http://codegeass.wikia.com, then weak delete or merge. Please give me time! 75.156.83.110 (talk) 05:37, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

• Keep Although this article itself is very weak, I think we should improve it instead of deleting it. - plau (talk) 05:40, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

• Transwiki then Merge. While very expansive and informative, the article is too big and generally unnecessary for general Misplaced Pages use. It would be more constructive if moved to the Code Geass Wiki which is specifically designed for this purpose. Parts of the article could be moved to the main page, with anything that is OR or uncited being deleted.the_one092001 (talk) 06:12, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
