The result was procedural close—never transcluded to AfD. This was an abortive first attempt to initiate the AfD that would become Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Zartan (2nd nomination) (this is why the first AfD has "2nd nomination" in the name). Its "outcome" was recorded as 'never transcluded to AfD' on the article's talk page on 6 April 2011, and this close acknowledges that fact 14 years later.

Article is sourced to the subject matter in a offline cite to comic books - Which is odd. Over detailed, fancruft. Written in universe with no reliable third party sources. One source which is a fansite was deemed unreliable at Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_92#G.I._Joe_characters. There are so many unsourced claims and bad choice of wording here. As with many of these characters the WP for Fictional characters were shocked at the HUNDREDS of unreferenced pages GI Joe had. A big AFD was discussed but the WP GI Joe team said they would merge some. However this is one of the surviving lot. These editors use forums, youtube videos and blogspot to cite these articles, so bare that in mind if you think it should be merged as the lists for these characters are supporting such links and trying to say they are fine.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Raintheone (talk • contribs) 23:57, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
