AFD

[edit]

42of8, please read WP:RS, WP:V, and WP:GNG. As you read them please keep in mind we also need real world context in the article. For example the creator saying something like "I needed a super strong metal, and it needed a cool name so I took the name Prometheus and add "um" to the end of it." In order to be encyclopedia the articles need to be about our real world and how the subjects were developed and published not just summaries of their fictional elements in a fictional universe. Sorry but I'm tired of you repling with the same basic reply of WP:Ilikeit and heres a bunch of primary, unreliable sources that I found in Google that just mention the subject in passing and have no real world information about the subject. It's the same over and over again, and I have repeatedly taken the time to explain to you why these sources fall short and then in the next AFD there is your same exact argument again. I like it and heres a bunch of stuff I found in Google. Ridernyc (talk) 16:51, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

From my perspective, you are simply an outsider throwing stones at a field of study you don't understand. Please read Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Writing about fiction which you don't seem to be following or understand. Real world context is also "this was first published on this date" and "this is a summary of the narrative presented in the primary source". Research about literature of any kind requires the use of primary sources to a certain extent. Using only secondary sources in literature is considered to be poor research in academia. Which is why the Manual of Style request that both are used. The sources I've given you are written by known experts in the field, but you don't seem to know enough about the field to recognize that. You are calling people "fans" that have masters degrees and PhDs in the subject at hand. The only thing I can see is that you've misinterpreted the the policy you keep referring to because of your lack of knowledge on the subject. You are calling things trivia and minutia that you have no understanding about. Then you nominated over a dozen articles for deletion after doing poor research on google. Being on google does not make something notable. And as far as I can tell, that's about all you do on wikipedia is trolling articles to see if you can delete them. I'm sorry but that is just not helpful behavior and shows poor sense of community. 42of8 (talk) 02:09, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
