Love Hina plot summaries

Delete - Clear violation of WIkipedia articles are not plot summaries. Otto4711 12:22, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, or merge or something. I'm sure there's a way to compromise and preserve the other editors' work. --164.107.222.23 16:16, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The amount of effort put into an article is irrelevant to whether or not it complies with policy. --Slowking Man 17:06, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Wikipedia articles should not soley be plot summary. NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 16:46, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I would say merging the information into Love Hina in much-condensed form seems like the best option. A general overview of the plot is fine, but the article as it stands is rather excruciatingly detailed and in-universe. --Slowking Man 17:06, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This debate has been included in the list of Anime and manga-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 18:00, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or userfy. As is, this page is rather unencyclopedic and useless. However, large portions of its content could probably be converted into acceptable articles by the addition of more information and cleanup. For instance, the volume summaries could be converted into a List of Love Hina manga chapters which contained both summaries and out-of-universe information. As the quality of writing is decent enough to be salvageable, deleting it entirely could simply force duplication of effort later on. Towards this end, if a Love Hina editor wishes to userfy the pages with the goal of reworking it into articles, I would support this. --tjstrf talk 18:30, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep We have plot summaries for every major TV show whether the episode had notability or not. If it needs social commentary then add it. Always fix or flag, before deletion. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 23:59, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
If other similar articles exist, that does not necessarily mean that such articles are desirable. In the case of a show or episode with significant depth and cultural impact—say, Time Enough at Last—I can see the merit of devoting a significant portion of the article, or a separate article, to plot summary and analysis. However, this article seems to me to consist mostly of "X does Y; then Z happens," then repeat the formula. I don't think anyone's arguing that there should be no discussion of Love Hina's plot at all, but it seems to me that an adequately encyclopedic treatment of such could easily be part of the main article. --Slowking Man 00:55, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge in a more condensed form into Love Hina. Note that List of Love Hina episodes also exists. 132.205.44.5 01:21, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
