Over-Run

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

No assertion or likelihood of notability. Redirecting may be inappropriate due to article being about two unrelated characters. armada Over-Run may be unsuitable for merging into List of Transformers: Armada characters since he did not appear in the anime.

Comment - Over-Run was a character in the Armada comic book, which is overed by the Armada article here Transformers:_Armada#Comic_books, so he was a characters in the series. Mathewignash (talk) 15:41, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I know that, but the character list is about the anime, not the Dreamwave comic. NotARealWord (talk) 15:54, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Since it a character list about the article, and the article covers the anime and the comics, he should be on the list. Mathewignash (talk) 16:00, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

About "the article"? Why would there be an article about... an article? NotARealWord (talk) 16:08, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The point is he was a character in that Armada comic book, and this is a page for the list of characters in Armada. It should include the comic book characters as much as the TV series. Mathewignash (talk) 16:26, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - are the comics themselves notable? If so, why couldn't there be a List of Transformers: Armada comics characters created? --Malkinann (talk) 22:05, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and redirect to the dab page overrun. A note there can point to Transformers:Armada. 76.66.200.95 (talk) 06:35, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep It is a notable concept. Note the past AFD's listed include one for this article(ending in snow keep) and two others which were for musical related things totally unrelated to this article. 75.142.152.104 (talk) 17:00, 8 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Which AfDs are you referring to? NotARealWord (talk) 17:18, 8 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - An article with poor sources and questionable notability. Dwanyewest (talk) 20:56, 8 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or redirect to Transformers: Armada (comics) list of characters. Mathewignash (talk) 19:43, 10 October 2010 (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) 23:07, 10 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and/or redirect to Overrun where it should point to the two works where the characters appeared. – sgeureka ^t•c 07:47, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of Mini-Cons, as that is the most prominent character bearing that name. --Divebomb (talk) 09:18, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment' I'd say Transformers: Armada (comics) is a superior redirect to List of Mini-Cons, since the former has some character bio for Overrun, while the later is merely a list of names with no information. Mathewignash (talk) 22:04, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Yeah, the problem with those "List of [faction members]" articles aren't very helpful. NotARealWord (talk) 12:07, 13 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete another TF article with poor notability and sources. Dwanyewest (talk) 14:38, 17 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
