Comment I came across the listed articles above on NPP, but now I dig deeper, there seem to be five categories full of similar articles: Category:Ultra Monsters, Category:Ultra Seven, Category:Ultra Q Category:Ultraman and Category:Ultraman Tiga seem to all fall into the same box. ninety:one 19:16, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
"Non-notable" is not a compelling reason for deletion on a paperless encyclopedia. Sincerely, --A Nobody^{My talk} 20:23, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment what I meant by that is that its virtually unknown outside of Japan and the only real coverage it got outside of it is a short lived run on Cartoon Network. --Scythre ^Talk _Contribs 20:56, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Non-Notable — delete all. I've unhidden the list. Cheers, Jack Merridew 05:37, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all -- No claim to, or evidence of, notability; no signs of significant citations to third-party sources. --EEMIV (talk) 05:49, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all - no significant third party coverage. --Cameron Scott (talk) 14:16, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
merge all in to either the main article ora list of characters. We should always have a redirect from such, so deletion is appropriate . Merging is the compromise for characters, and trying to delete instead is as wrong as the argument for making a separate article for each. i reject the argument that the concept of notability has no place in Wikipedia; i reject similarly the argument that we should not cover fiction in detail. Equal nonsense. DGG ( talk ) 23:30, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
