Lana and Clark (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Deletion nomination Article is a personal essay about the relationship between two characters from the TV show smallville. As original as can be. No hope for anything but an OR essay here, so it should be deleted. Jayron32|talk|contribs 05:43, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

DO NOT DELETE It is an article based on two fictional characters from Smallville. Fans of the couple would find the article interesting and entertaining. There is no point deleting it as it allows people to know background information about Lana and Clark's relationship. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Reddevils10 (talk • contribs) 07:46, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

• An article being interesting or useful is not a very good reason to keep an original research essay that has no reliable, independent sources supporting it. NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 07:57, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

• Delete Semi=interesting observations by a fan of Smallville, but Wikipedia's tolerance for original research in TV articles is generally limited to summaries of the shows themselves. OR for the infinite possibilities of an analysis of a TV show is a different matter. Writing about one's favorite TV show is a wonderful thing, and it's a fun way to develop communication skills.... but that doesn't mean the result should be an article in an encylcopedia.

• Delete I enjoy Smallville, but this is an opinion/ editorial. I do not think these opinions will find secondary sources. Most of the factual info here can be found in either the Smallville main article or the Smallville timeline article. An article like Smallville season one, etc. would be useful and is needed.

• Delete fan opinion/speculation. Wikipedia isn't usenet or a fanzine: this just doesn't belong. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 14:59, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. Fails per original research policy. This shouldn't be here. Not a bad show, but this article shouldn't be here. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 18:08, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
