- Miscellaneous characters of Command & Conquer (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
This article asserts no notability through reliable sources, and by its own definition is "miscellaneous", which could be easily interpreted as "non-notable". Judgesurreal777 (talk) 19:19, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep/Merge In a sense this is essentially a "list of characters" page, and those are acceptable for inclusion here, but as Judgesurreal777 notes there are no sources given for the information in the article. In a broad sense this would be the C&C game manuals, but I suppose the community would appreciate inline citations with their references, and at the moment my eyes hurt to much to stare at the screen for hours to add inline citations. Some of the information could be merged, I suppose, but I am not sure where it would best be presented. TomStar81 (Talk) 19:26, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Its not the lack of citation of the game manual as much as citation of interviews by those who created these characters, or a few video game reviewers talking about their opinions of these characters. That would establish notability in the sense I mean, and at least then we would focus on merger and not deletion. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 19:51, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep As good as any other article... Felis Sapien (talk) 20:59, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and Expand Sources definitely need to be found, and pretty soon, but as I do think sources can be found for certainly some of them in video game reviews etc that a couple of months should be given in order to allow said expansion. This is the least notable of the C&C articles except for CABAL which is also up for deletion (my response being merge to Nod characters) so if in a couple of months nothing is found I'll support deletion. At the same time however I do think the C&C task force would appreciate a couple of months to find sources. Sometimes XFD provides the necessary impetus for a mass improvement, if it doesn't then delete at the next review. Caissa's DeathAngel (talk) 01:42, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
