Fictional group that has no third-party significant sourcing in the article. Black Kite (t) (c) 00:13, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, I've been working on merging individual characters form Transformers articles back to team pages, so it would really be stupid to delete this page, when I could merge 5 other articles into it instead. Mathewignash (talk) 01:15, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- So how is it notable? Black Kite (t) (c) 01:18, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- - I'd ask that you not deleted it as it's a place I am merging 5 other articles into. Mathewignash (talk) 01:36, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:12, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - No reliably sourced coverage to support claim of notability. In-world cruft is insufficient. Tarc (talk) 03:01, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Question- what are the five articles you want to merge here, Mathewignash? Are they also "sourced" primarily to toy catalogues and youtube videos? If so I have to agree with Black Kite and Tarc and recommend deletion. Reyk _YO! 20:48, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- I was planning on merging the articles for the members of the Commandos (Mega Octane, Ro-TOr, Movor, Rollbar and Armorhide) into this one, which would clear a lot of space, but if you delete this article, that makes this impossible. Mathewignash (talk) 13:25, 17 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete due to a lack of sources to WP:verify notability. Shooterwalker (talk) 00:51, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as Transformers meet a common sense standard of notability and verifiability. --Transformers Belong Here (talk) 05:34, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete more poorly sourced transformers articles without good sources. Dwanyewest (talk) 17:27, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Like other Transformers-related fictional characters, these ones do not meet the general notability guideline to deserve a stand-alone article. It is not a plausible search term due to the disambiguation in the article title and the content is barely referenced to suggest a redirect or a merge. Jfgslo (talk) 23:36, 15 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
