Is a timeline revealing a plot for a series, is most fancruft and serves little encyclopedic value to wikipedia Angel Emfrbl (talk) 20:56, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep I'd say it serves plenty of encyclopedic value to fans of the show and manga. Ford MF (talk) 21:14, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per other timleline articles - fan-driven content that makes no claims to real-world significance; non-notable & in-universe. Fails our fiction guideline (Please make your voice heard on fiction-related topics!). Eusebeus (talk) 23:21, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
    We don't have a fiction guideline. That's a proposal, and a highly debated one unlikely (if the talkpage is any evidence) to gain consensus. Ford MF (talk) 00:51, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete as it fails WP:FICT, WP:N, and it is mostly OR and original synthesis. -- -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 00:54, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
    It's no more original synthesis than any other plot summary. Also, your argument is that "similar articles have been deleted in the past"? Ford MF (talk) 00:53, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
    Yeah, it is OS. It is not straight plot summary, its synthesis and making guesses. Also, it is rude to just run around and jump on everyone's deletes. Just make your keep and leave it at that. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 00:56, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
    See under: wiktionary:debate. Ford MF (talk) 01:47, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
    I presume there was a point there, but as I do like to follow WP:CIVIL, I'll refrain from giving my response. Too bad you have so little confidence in your keep reasons that you have to attack the deletes to try to make it better. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 01:52, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
    Questioning delete rationales that are iffy or spurious isn't "attacking", it's what is done at AfD. You're not exactly new here. Ford MF (talk) 14:54, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Anime and manga-related deletion discussions. -- -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 00:48, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete This isn't a time line, it is simply a series of tables listing "attacks" which fails WP:FICT in any of its incarnations. --Farix (Talk) 01:01, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete I can't really tell what this article wants to accomplish in the first place. If it was a clearcut fictional timeline, I'd likely !vote delete for failing WP:NOT#PLOT. Now it's just an extreme in-universe mess of statistics (WP:WAF and WP:NOT#STATS). – sgeureka t•c 06:50, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Fails notability criteria for inclusion. Jasynnash2 (talk) 16:09, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per Farix, and because (IMHO) this page looks like little more than an excuse to show off what someone can do with tables. —Dinoguy1000 17:45, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
