This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Science fiction or fantasy. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting.

You can help maintain the list on this page:

  • To add a new AfD discussion (once it has already been opened on WP:AFD):
  • Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  • You can also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Science fiction}}<small>—~~~~</small> to it, which will inform users that it has been listed here.
  • There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
  • Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
  • You can also add and remove links to other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Science fiction or fantasy.

Please note that adding an AfD to, or removing it from, this page does not add it to, or remove it from, the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page, before adding it to this page.

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

[edit] Life-shield blanket

Life-shield blanket (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Crufty topic with no independent sources and no evidence of notability. Gatoclass (talk) 14:55, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete non-notable fancruft ukexpat (talk) 15:42, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete non-notable fictional item. Any relevant information should already exist in the main article(s). Jasynnash2 (talk) 15:44, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge/redirect to List of Dune terminology. While the article may not be able to stand on itself as is, it may be able to be merged in with the article that I listed. Otherwise, delete. NanohaA'sYuriTalk, My master 20:36, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Science fiction-related deletion discussions. -- Fabrictramp | talk to me 13:46, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge. As usual, I object - quite strongly - to the use of the word "cruft", a term with little objective definition beyond "stuff that I dislike" (ergo, "this shouldn't be in the encyclopedia because this shouldn't be in the encyclopedia") and commonly a degoratory charge. We know better than that. Nevertheless, this works better in the list above than on its own. --Kizor 14:04, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Feed to the sandworms for the lack of citations to substantial third-party coverage establishing notability. --EEMIV (talk) 15:24, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge to List of Dune terminology as it's useful there but not notable enought for its own article. - Dravecky (talk) 17:25, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
