Appears to fail Wikipedia:Notability (fiction), specifically "Articles about topics within a fictional universe are notable if they provide sufficient real-world information in well organized units." Article falls into same category as the example of "List of Star Destroyers" cited on the WP:FICT page, which is deemed non-notable Oscarthecat 21:42, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment See the existing AFD's. FrozenPurpleCube 21:46, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - the page is relatively new. Authors of the page can easily add real-world interest to it. Let 'em have some time to do so. No need to chop. It's good reference material on Gundam. The Transhumanist    00:21, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  Comment - I agree. We can see if the article becomes more effecient over time. However, if the article fails to grow, it'll soon be back in the AfDs. TheInfinityZero 16:19, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete just like List of cars in a video game is not appropriate for WP, neither should a list of vehicles on a TV show. Fails WP:FICT Corpx 01:39, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Much more important, especially since a list of vehicles in a video-game only circles to its videogame, while a list about the vehicles of an ENTIRE ENORMOUS FRANCHISE like gundam is would be useful. ~ Kind Anon —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.84.122.85 (talk) 23:21, August 24, 2007 (UTC)

• See WP:USEFUL Being useful is not a reason to keep Corpx 05:18, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Keep per the other AfDs started by this user. Jtrainor 12:22, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• That's not a reason to Speedy Keep - See WP:Speedy Keep Corpx 16:01, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. The subject being fictional is not grounds for deletion, see Doctor Watson, light saber, Andorian, Acme Corporation, etc. Lack of sources is grounds for improvement, not deletion. Edward321 22:58, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Wouldn't it be better to have a list article summarizing each of these vehicles rather than have a separate article for each one? The details should probably be toned down a bit though. --Polaron | Talk 01:00, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment There used to be, but people kept trying to mass-AfD them. The result of those was consensus for a 'list of' article. Jtrainor 21:20, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
