[edit] Scourge of Europe
Delete - states right in the article that it's a neologism and that there's no consensus as to when or how the term is used or to whom it can refer. No ghits I can find using the term to refer to the character grouping outside of Wikipedia and the occasional bit of fanfic. Nothing in the article that can't be appropriately housed in one of the many other articles dealing with one or another of the four characters. Otto4711 17:57, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
Don't Delete - the article provides some information that I can not see being placed on the character's individual page. In addition, the page provides a way for readers to see gathered and summerized information about the four vampires all on the same page. Further more, the title of the page can be changed to something that is not a fan neologism. In conclusion, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and my opinion is to keep the article. --Meraculas 14:19, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
- Specifically what information do you believe can't be placed in one of the character pages? What alternate name do you suggest for the article? Otto4711 17:16, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Any relevant information can be put in the character pages. This article would be better on a BtVS fan-site - if it's not actually OR it certainly skirts perilously close to it. WMMartin 19:25, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete as neologism. Further, redirect the article title to Attila the Hun, who was known as the scourge of Europe long before the TV show aired. Pastordavid 00:06, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete and Redirect As a neologism, fails WP:NEO by not having reliable secondary sources about the term. As a neologism from fiction, also fails WP:FICT by being almost entirely in an in universe from fiction. Redirect to Attila the Hun as Pastordavid pointed out. GRBerry 21:59, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
