{{Vote delete}} This page shouldn't exist. We don't know this character's name or anything about their lore. There are characters we have pictures of and names for who we don't have articles for, there is no point to this page existing and anything on it is covered by the [[Opening Sequence]] article. {{User:FireFerret/Signature}} 21:41, September 21, 2018 (UTC)

{{Vote delete}} I don't see much use for this page. Opal is still a minor character, and the only significant relationship she has at the moment is with Bolin. And even that is still minor.

{{Vote keep}} We know he was important enough to be featured in the opening sequence instead of any of the other, named airbenders we know of. He had a beard, as well.

{{Vote delete}} Looking over the article, I don't think there is really enough content to warrant such a page. Opal's relationship with her family and maybe Bolin could probably be expanded to have enough content, but beyond that I do not see there is much that could be said, and only two notable connections is not really enough to warrant a page. {{User:HammerOfThor/Signature}} 16:17, August 17, 2014 (UTC)

{{Vote delete}} Per my [[Thread:1262869#2|earlier objections]] against the creation of the page. Relationship pages are not meant to be mere recollections of "character A spoke with character B" in this, this, and this instance. Those pages are meant to provide a deeper insight in the personality of the character and the "why" of their interactions with certain characters. Opal does not have enough of those profound moments to warrant a relationship page at this moment. {{User:Lady Lostris/Signature}} 16:25, August 17, 2014 (UTC)
 
 
{{vote keep}} I agree with what Mkamind said. We have enough true information about this and it can still be expanded if Opal appears throughout book 4 as well. --[[User:Avatar Rowena|Avatar Rowena]] <small>([[Message Wall:Avatar Rowena|wall]] • [[Special:Contributions/Avatar Rowena|contribs]])</small> 17:00, August 17, 2014 (UTC)
 
:As a general reminder: We create a page to group relevant information that is present. We do not create a page in the off chance that relevant information may someday be released. {{User:Lady Lostris/Signature}} 17:09, August 17, 2014 (UTC)
 
 
{{vote keep}} Opal has had enough interaction with the different main characters to be giving her own page. Also, the 'not being a main character' argument is invalid, since Yue and Ty Lee (for example) also have their own relationship page. Opal is an important and vivid character in the third book, who happens to be featured on the SDCC promo poster, they don't just put a character on there who's not important. [[User:BelgiumHelper|BelgiumHelper]] <small>([[Message Wall:BelgiumHelper|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/BelgiumHelper|contribs]])</small> 19:18, August 17, 2014 (UTC)
 
:The judgement on whether a character should have a relationship page doesn't have anything to do with whether they are a main character or not. What matters is whether there is enough content in regards to their interactions with other characters to warrant such a page. For Opal, I do not believe enough such content exists to warrant keeping the page. If in the future we get enough content, then it can be remade as needed. {{User:HammerOfThor/Signature}} 17:46, August 17, 2014 (UTC)
 
::I like to point out that Opal being a minor character was not used as a reason to delete the page on itself. It was used to refer to her very minor role thus far in the serious, a minor role that has left us with very little to nearly nothing to work with. (Though just a note: Yue and Ty Lee are both listed as ''major'' characters, so using them as examples to defend the page of a ''minor'' character is a bit unconventional as you can't just make a parallel comparison between two different situations.)
 
::And as said before, we do not create pages in the off chance that she may get a bigger role in the future. If she happens to actually show a deep connection with several characters that warrant a page, the page can easily be recreated. However, we do no keep sub-standard pages around in hopes that we may one day fill them with useful information. That's not how we work. We wait for useful information and then create a page. {{User:Lady Lostris/Signature}} 17:51, August 17, 2014 (UTC)
 
 
{{Vote delete}} As spoken of before, Opal doesn't have any solid relationship shown in the show. In this Book, relationships have been toned down, and hence, Opal's relationships aren't that significant with respect to the storyline whatsoever. There is hardly any content that can be added.

{{Vote delete}} This character isn't named and hasn't played any role at all in the show, all we know about him is he had the ability to lavabend which does not warrant a page at all. Any notes about his lavabending ability can already be surmised on the Avatar page, and if we keep this page up we might as well make pages for all of the other stock Avatar designs. If his lore gets brought up in the comics the page can be recreated but I don't think this page is relevant. {{User:FireFerret/Signature}} 18:37, September 26, 2018 (UTC)

<s>{{Vote keep}}</s> I am not dead-set on keeping it, but I do want to point out that this particular character was also, supposedly, present in The Rift (the last paragraph in the section on Aang's life). Given that it provides some insight into the Avatar's prior lives, and specifically their connection to them, I am happy to keep this page. {{User:Fruipit/Signature}} 18:43, September 26, 2018 (UTC)
{{Vote delete}} I think we should delete the [[Insurrection of the Red Lotus]] page... any info on there can be found on other pages, such as the ORL page, and the korra page, so i don't think there's any real need for this page.

::Ahh, the current wording on his page makes him seem much more important than the panel reveals, then. As said, I'm not dead-set on keeping the page xD {{User:Fruipit/Signature}} 18:54, September 26, 2018 (UTC)
{{vote keep}} I get that the information is elsewhere on the wiki, but all of Korra's information is on Asami and Mako and Bolin's pages is you add all those contents together. The reason she has her own article is because she has enough info to require it and the article focuses on her. The same goes for the Insurrection, which also happens to be an important event in the chronology that would probably get an article if it were only an intro and minor history long, like the [[Battle of Han Tui]]. {{User:Krazykid51/Signature}} 10:09, August 28, 2014 (UTC)
 
   
  +
{{Vote keep}} Due to those few seconds this Avatar "showed up in," he became more important than any other stock design of the other Avatars because he was revealed to be the first known person to lavabend. Another thing to note is that this particular Avatar disrupted the cycle of "male" "female" "male" "female" judging by his facial features. All in all, these reasons may be too trivial for most, but these are my thoughts on the matter. Also, while we're on the topic of this Avatar specifically, if the article ''does'' survive this discussion, perhaps it should be renamed to ''Unnamed firebending Avatar'' or ''Unnamed Fire Nation Avatar'' or something similar. --<b><span style="color: dodgerblue;">[[User: Riverdale Chauffeur|<span style="color: dodgerblue;">''<u>Boot Lover/Riverdale Chauffeur</u>''</span>]]<span style="color: dodgerblue;"> </span></span><sup>[[User talk:Riverdale Chauffeur|<span style="color: #b1b1b1;">''(Wanna Discuss Something?)''</span>]]</sup></b> 03:00, September 29, 2018 (UTC)
{{vote keep}} Not being biased as I created my page myself, but seeing that the major conflicts in the Avatar world have pages (Chin's revolution, Hundred Year War, Harmony Restoration Movement, Equalist revolution and recently, the Water Tribe Civil War, which I also created myself), I think the page should stay.

:I disagree that precedent or the existence of shorter articles makes the page necessary, (also I'm confused about the supposed gender pattern because Aang and Roku are of the same gender) but I do agree that the page should be renamed; I strongly dislike having the word "unnamed" in a character's title, perhaps simply Fire Nation Avatar would work. {{User:FireFerret/Signature}} 04:17, September 29, 2018 (UTC)
{{vote keep}} The complex prelude of this conflict, as well as the conflict itself is noteworthy. Also, to argue that the info can be found elsewhere is not really a reason; all the infos about the Battle at Wulong forest can be found elsewhere, but it still is one of the most important battles in Avatar history and can not be omitted.

:::Lol I did not explain that correctly. I meant that every four Avatars from each of the four nations, their genders are supposedly swapped. From what we know currently, it would seem this particular Avatar was the only one who disrupted that cycle.

{{Vote keep}} I think this page has enough content to warrant being kept. He was admittedly never explored in much detail, but the regularity of his appearances in the Avatar lineup leans me towards keeping over deleting the article. I would also like to add that if the article is kept, any name change would have to go through the War Room so I would suggest keeping the discussion here focused on whether the article should be deleted, and discuss a name change later on. {{User:HammerOfThor/Signature}} 10:44, September 29, 2018 (UTC)

::It is well established that the deletion of each article is considered separately and not based on what was or wasn't deleted before.

{{Vote delete}} I don't feel particularly strongly about this, but FF brought up some valid points that as far as I can tell have not been refuted in any of the following replies. We've also seen the bearded Earth Kingdom Avatar before him multiple times, but we deleted his article because we had next to zero info on him. The fact that it's been on the wiki for so long is essentially just saying its fine because it's gotten away with being there without anyone bringing it up, which is a bad precedent for the wiki. --{{User:AvatarRokusGhost/Sig2}} 02:01, September 30, 2018 (UTC)

::They chose to keep his article because he's the only person ever seen bending lava but now we know that's a skill that any skilled/trained earthbender could do, so the entire concept of it as having a prominent role on the narrative of the series or the structure of the universe no longer is relevant.

|T3 = Giant wolf | 3 =
{{vote keep}} I think keep because it is a well established page. Another thing is that it will most likely be touched upon in book 4. Also the Red Lotus uprising only had to deal with liberating the people from oppressive leaders, and once they were done the RL's part is done and it is up to the people. This is shown when Zaheer tells the city about the assassination, but he says it isn't his place to tell them what to do. Since the Anarchy is not taken part in totally by RL operatives I say keep. <small>—Preceding [[Help:Signature|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:0zai|0zai]] ([[Message Wall:0zai|wall]] • [[Special:Contributions/0zai|contribs]]) {{#if:22:36, September 2, 2014 (UTC)|22:36, September 2, 2014 (UTC)|This note was added on 22:54, September 2, 2014 (UTC).}}</small>

{{vote delete}} While this article may have once been necessary, as we knew little of the spirit world, with Korra and the comics further fleshing it out, I think it is pointless to have an article about a spirit which one can glimpse in about a second of a single episode. We don't have articles for other spirits that appear but have no lines, like the many spirits visible in ''The Legend of Korra'', and we lack articles for spirits who play a role in the plot like the spirit that attacks Korra in the first episode of Book 2. I think it is odd to have an exception for this particular character. The one noteworthy thing about it, that the Wolf spirit spirit may have been based on its design, can easily be put on the Wolf spirit's page. {{User:FireFerret/Signature}} 01:21, October 8, 2018 (UTC)

{{Vote delete}} My reasoning for why both these articles should be deleted is very simple; they are too short in length and there is not enough information to warrant separate articles.

{{Vote keep}} Just as a small note, pages on the wiki are not kept on the basis of "we have this small page, therefore we should have this other small page". Each page is kept on its own merits and whether it is of a reasonable length. Therefore, the existence of other small pages doesn't mean we have to keep this page, and keeping this page doesn't mean we would have to create pages for every small piece of art if there was no merits in doing so.

{{Vote delete}}This article feels to me like it's there just to announce the trivia that it is a reference to the real Silk Road Trading Route.

{{Vote keep}} The meere fact, that it was used by Unalaq is important, as it gives the ship a special meaning.

{{Vote delete}} The relevant information of these two characters is already incorporated in the history section of [[Military of the Earth Empire|Kuvira's army]].

{{Vote delete}} My reasoning for proposing the deletion of this page is very simply that I feel it is too short. All relevant information on the group has been added, and thus there is no real scope for expanding it any more to a reasonable length.

There is no general page on which the information regarding them can be listed. Those soldiers, however, do. All the information regarding their relevant actions had already been documented before the page was even created. As such, their separate page became a duplicate of the info covered on the Kuvira's soldiers page. We are an ''Avatar''-encyclopedia, meaning that we document everything regarding to the series. However, in no way does that have to mean that everything has to have its separate page. It just means that it needs to be documented on a relevant and logical page, which has been done. {{User:Lady Lostris/Signature}} 11:01, October 26, 2014 (UTC)

:I know that not all Equalists are chi blockers, but most of the Equalists that had a notable history are. And that notable history is already covered elsewhere, thus making that page nearly a clone of the other page. As said above, the only thing that makes that page relevant is that is focuses slightly more on the chi blocking aspect, but if we were to cut out all the irrelevant/duplicate info, we only have a paragraph left or something. As such, I propose to move that paragraph to the main Equalist page and delete the separate "Equalist chi blockers".

{{Discussion Closed|Page will be merged with [[Trebuchet operators]].}}
:Also, the mere fact that they're a special ops group -which they're not really, considering that most Equalists are chi blockers due to it being the most effective weapon against benders in one-on-one combat along with the electrified glove- is not a sufficient reason to keep the page around considering its largely irrelevant nature of having duplicated information from the main Equalists page.

{{Vote delete}} {{Vote merge}} I do not see the added value of this page beyond confusion. "The Last Airbender" is wildly known to be the title of the movie, which is named "Film:The Last Airbender" on this wiki.

<s>Merge</s> {{Vote keep}} This page was originally created to reveal the articles comments after a botched move (see revision history).

FYI, Viacom used tsdr.uspto.gov/documentviewer?caseId=sn85016855&docId=SPE20130308145039#docIndex=6&page=1 as trademark specimen for "The Last Airbender". — '''[[User:Hasdi|Hasdi Bravo]]''' &bull; 10:50, May 8, 2015 (UTC)

{{Vote keep}} I'm not exactly clear on what "confusion" would come from keeping this page. Someone looking/searching for ''The Last Airbender'' is primarily going to be looking for the film, but the game and soundtrack both come under this name as well; this is entirely why we have disambiguation pages, for articles that have the same or similar titles. For someone looking for the film, there is an easily noticeable link to said article which they can click on; for those looking for the game, soundtrack, or series, the same. I am at a loss as to see what part of this process creates confusion, and thus why the page should be deleted. {{User:HammerOfThor/Signature}} 21:31, May 10, 2015 (UTC)

:::If consensus is to keep it, it will be renamed to the standard disambiguation page and this name will be a redirect to the movie, since that's basically how everything on this wiki has worked thus far.
 
:::As for HoT's argument, where the confusion comes from is already explained in my first comment. The argument that we don't need this easy redirect based on there being an "easily noticeable link to said article which they can click on" would mean that we should also do away with many of our disambiguation pages, since there are "easily noticeable link to said article[s] which they can click on" in the navigation bar. {{User:Lady Lostris/Signature}} 19:56, May 13, 2015 (UTC)

{{vote delete}} My reasoning for deleting this article is very simple: 1) Everything known about the events at Zhulu Pass is already part of the uprising article. The Battle article will be just a de facto copy of the section in the uprising article. 2) We know almost nothing about the actual battle. We know some things about the massacre afterwards, but the info regarding the fighting is extremely limited: For example, it is not even clear who fought with Jianzhu at the pass; the novel can be interpreted as him fighting alone, with his private army or with the Earth Kingdom military. None of this is certain.

The only other relevant information, the extended history section, is also covered already where necessary. As such, this page fall under the same usefulness as pages such as "apple" and "bamboo" we had in the past. I reckon someone may draw a parallel between the existence of this page and the [[mercury]] page, but then I'd like to point out that the latter exists because of its plot relevance, namely Korra's poisoning and subsequent inability to access the Avatar State properly for the larger part of book 4.

{{Vote delete}} I believe that this article should be deleted because there is just not enough information to justify it being kept. Almost all of the information contained in the article is covered in the [[United Forces]] article and the island is only mentioned twice in The Legend of Korra. There is a possibility that we will learn more about Red Sand Island in ''[[The Shadow of Kyoshi]]'', but the book’s release is still over two months away and there is no guarantee that we will learn more about the island in the novel anyway. If more information about Red Sand Island is released in the future, we can recreate the article, but for now, I think it should be deleted.

{{Vote delete}} All of the relevant information here is already posted on the Red Lotus's article, this article is unnecessary and unappealing. In the past, articles without any real information other than their existence being known (such as General Shu or Ilah) have been deleted, and I feel like this article should be deleted as well. {{User:FireFerret/Signature}} 02:32, October 15, 2017 (UTC)
 
   
 
{{Vote keep}} My opinion on this matter has not changed. I just think that we should keep the article until ''The Shadow of Kyoshi'' is released (two months is not much time); what harm is done by waiting until then? I simply see no reason to delete it and then recreate it if we could just wait a bit and then just keep / delete it.

{{Vote delete}} Aang on a sec pretty much covered my views on this. The criteria for keeping or deleting an article is based on how it is now, not how it might potentially be expanded in the future. Otherwise, that argument could be used to justify keeping any article that is too short. As is stands, the article is not long enough and I support deletion. {{User:HammerOfThor/Signature}} 10:11, May 7, 2020 (UTC)

{{Vote delete}} I propose that the mango article be deleted for similar reasons that the apple article was deleted. Nothing on the page is unique to the Avatar world or in any significant way noteworthy. The only things on the page are that it can be made into a drink and that team Avatar saw it a couple of times. Over all a generally pointless article. {{User:FireFerret/Signature}} 02:26, October 15, 2017 (UTC)

Unidentified Bearded Airbender [show]CLOSEDedit
This discussion is closed. The result of this discussion was:

Page deleted.

Please do not edit this discussion.

Delete Delete — This page shouldn't exist. We don't know this character's name or anything about their lore. There are characters we have pictures of and names for who we don't have articles for, there is no point to this page existing and anything on it is covered by the Opening Sequence article. Fire Pabu Sprite Ferret 21:41, September 21, 2018 (UTC)

Delete Delete — Anything listed on this page is purely logical. As such, it does not warrant a page Tono555 Read my Fanon! 21:44, September 21, 2018 (UTC)

Keep Keep — We know he was important enough to be featured in the opening sequence instead of any of the other, named airbenders we know of. He had a beard, as well. He also mastered a whirlwind move, and none of this was mentioned on the Opening Sequence article. --Boot Lover/Riverdale Chauffeur (Wanna Discuss Something?) 21:46, September 21, 2018 (UTC)

Delete Delete — There is not enough content to warrant this page. Frui (🌹🐝🐝🐝) 21:58, September 21, 2018 (UTC)

Unnamed Fire Avatar [show]CLOSEDedit
This discussion is closed. The result of this discussion was:

Page kept.

Please do not edit this discussion.

Delete Delete — This character isn't named and hasn't played any role at all in the show, all we know about him is he had the ability to lavabend which does not warrant a page at all. Any notes about his lavabending ability can already be surmised on the Avatar page, and if we keep this page up we might as well make pages for all of the other stock Avatar designs. If his lore gets brought up in the comics the page can be recreated but I don't think this page is relevant. Fire Pabu Sprite Ferret 18:37, September 26, 2018 (UTC)

Keep Keep I am not dead-set on keeping it, but I do want to point out that this particular character was also, supposedly, present in The Rift (the last paragraph in the section on Aang's life). Given that it provides some insight into the Avatar's prior lives, and specifically their connection to them, I am happy to keep this page. Frui (🌹🐝🐝🐝) 18:43, September 26, 2018 (UTC)

Yes he does appear, but for a ">https://readcomiconline.to/Comic/Nickelodeon-Avatar-The-Last-Airbender-The-Rift/Part-3?id=48672#27</a>">https://readcomiconline.to/Comic/Nickelodeon-Avatar-The-Last-Airbender-The-Rift/Part-3?id=48672#27">https://readcomiconline.to/Comic/Nickelodeon-Avatar-The-Last-Airbender-The-Rift/Part-3?id=48672#27</a></a> single panel along with the same Earth Kingdom Avatar before him who we've seen in statues in Avatar temples and in other Avatar line-ups but who doesn't have a page here. the only reason we have the article about him is because he showed up and lavabended once, if more information becomes available we can create a page about him then, but the page isn't really serving a purpose on the wiki. Fire Pabu Sprite Ferret 18:49, September 26, 2018 (UTC)
Ahh, the current wording on his page makes him seem much more important than the panel reveals, then. As said, I'm not dead-set on keeping the page xD Frui (🌹🐝🐝🐝) 18:54, September 26, 2018 (UTC)

Keep Keep — Due to those few seconds this Avatar "showed up in," he became more important than any other stock design of the other Avatars because he was revealed to be the first known person to lavabend. Another thing to note is that this particular Avatar disrupted the cycle of "male" "female" "male" "female" judging by his facial features. All in all, these reasons may be too trivial for most, but these are my thoughts on the matter. Also, while we're on the topic of this Avatar specifically, if the article does survive this discussion, perhaps it should be renamed to Unnamed firebending Avatar or Unnamed Fire Nation Avatar or something similar. --Boot Lover/Riverdale Chauffeur (Wanna Discuss Something?) 03:00, September 29, 2018 (UTC)

Keep Keep — I think this page has been here long enough (dating back to 2007) and has enough information on it for him to have a page. We have shorter pages around here, so I'll stick with keep. Tono555 Read my Fanon! 03:40, September 29, 2018 (UTC)

I disagree that precedent or the existence of shorter articles makes the page necessary, (also I'm confused about the supposed gender pattern because Aang and Roku are of the same gender) but I do agree that the page should be renamed; I strongly dislike having the word "unnamed" in a character's title, perhaps simply Fire Nation Avatar would work. Fire Pabu Sprite Ferret 04:17, September 29, 2018 (UTC)
I don't feel strong either way about keeping or deleting, but if a rename is the way to go, I suggest forgoing having the word Avatar in the title, and simply go with the more specific "Yangchen's predecessor". Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 04:27, September 29, 2018 (UTC)
Lol I did not explain that correctly. I meant that every four Avatars from each of the four nations, their genders are supposedly swapped. From what we know currently, it would seem this particular Avatar was the only one who disrupted that cycle. However, as I take a look at the image again, I realize that the discussion I took this from was likely misguided, as it was Avatar Roku who disrupted the cycle. --Boot Lover/Riverdale Chauffeur (Wanna Discuss Something?) 16:23, September 29, 2018 (UTC)

Keep Keep — I think this page has enough content to warrant being kept. He was admittedly never explored in much detail, but the regularity of his appearances in the Avatar lineup leans me towards keeping over deleting the article. I would also like to add that if the article is kept, any name change would have to go through the War Room so I would suggest keeping the discussion here focused on whether the article should be deleted, and discuss a name change later on. HAMMEROFTHØR (wall) • 10:44, September 29, 2018 (UTC)

If appearing regularly was a compelling reason to keep it, feathered hat man's article would still be around. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 16:57, September 29, 2018 (UTC)
It is well established that the deletion of each article is considered separately and not based on what was or wasn't deleted before. But to clarify my point, the Fire Avatar has appeared a number of times and there is enough content based on these appearances to, in my mind, justify keeping the page. My vote to keep is based on the quantity of content and not the number of appearances. HAMMEROFTHØR (wall) • 18:25, September 29, 2018 (UTC)

Delete Delete — I don't feel particularly strongly about this, but FF brought up some valid points that as far as I can tell have not been refuted in any of the following replies. We've also seen the bearded Earth Kingdom Avatar before him multiple times, but we deleted his article because we had next to zero info on him. The fact that it's been on the wiki for so long is essentially just saying its fine because it's gotten away with being there without anyone bringing it up, which is a bad precedent for the wiki. --AvatarRokus Ghost (Message meRead my fanon) Energy Saga Dragons, Sieges and Volcanoes 02:01, September 30, 2018 (UTC)

This thread's brought up a few good points. --Boot Lover/Riverdale Chauffeur (Wanna Discuss Something?) 03:26, September 30, 2018 (UTC)
They chose to keep his article because he's the only person ever seen bending lava but now we know that's a skill that any skilled/trained earthbender could do, so the entire concept of it as having a prominent role on the narrative of the series or the structure of the universe no longer is relevant. He has no pertinent roles, abilities, or effect on the narrative. Fire Pabu Sprite Ferret 04:28, September 30, 2018 (UTC)
Giant wolf [show]CLOSEDedit
This discussion is closed. The result of this discussion was:
Page deleted.
Please do not edit this discussion.

Delete Delete — While this article may have once been necessary, as we knew little of the spirit world, with Korra and the comics further fleshing it out, I think it is pointless to have an article about a spirit which one can glimpse in about a second of a single episode. We don't have articles for other spirits that appear but have no lines, like the many spirits visible in The Legend of Korra, and we lack articles for spirits who play a role in the plot like the spirit that attacks Korra in the first episode of Book 2. I think it is odd to have an exception for this particular character. The one noteworthy thing about it, that the Wolf spirit spirit may have been based on its design, can easily be put on the Wolf spirit's page. Fire Pabu Sprite Ferret 01:21, October 8, 2018 (UTC)

Delete Delete — I agree. This spirit didn't do anything particularly relevant other than walk in the background. Tono555 Read my Fanon! 02:02, October 8, 2018 (UTC)

Page deleted.
Please do not edit this discussion.

NOTE: This deletion is named for the 22nd Earth King article, but it also includes 40th Earth King since the arguments for both are the same.

Delete Delete — My reasoning for why both these articles should be deleted is very simple; they are too short in length and there is not enough information to warrant separate articles. All relevant information can be included on the Earth monarch page, as it was previously. I do not see why separate articles are required. HAMMEROFTHØR (wall) • 15:51, January 1, 2020 (UTC)

Merge Merge — This article is currently very short, and from what I remember of the book there is not much more that could be added to expand it. I would like to suggest, therefore, that we create an Earth Kingdom sages article and merge Ryong with the other sages that have short articles: Buro, Neliao, Pan, and Saiyuk. The article would then include information on each individual and also general information on the EK sages. HAMMEROFTHØR (wall) • 19:41, January 1, 2020 (UTC)

Super Brawl [show]CLOSEDedit
This discussion is closed. The result of this discussion was:

Page will be merged with Super Brawl games.

Please do not edit this discussion.


Merge Merge — I suggest to merge the different "Super Brawl" games (i.e. Super Brawl, Super Brawl 2, Super Brawl 3, Super Brawl World, Super Brawl Summer, and Super Fall Brawl) into one page named "Super Brawl games" since they all more or less have the same gameplay anyway and the Avatar aspect of these games seems rather limited. Lady Lostris / 9?cb=20210808202057 SOAP 14:48, February 18, 2020 (UTC)

Merge Merge — Agreed. There seems to be minimal differences between each game, so combining them makes a lot of sense. HAMMEROFTHØR (wall) • 22:42, February 18, 2020 (UTC)

Fade-Red Devils [show]CLOSEDedit
This discussion is closed. The result of this discussion was:

Page kept.

Please do not edit this discussion.


Delete Delete — My reasoning for proposing the deletion of this page is very simply that I feel it is too short. All relevant information on the group has been added, and thus there is no real scope for expanding it any more to a reasonable length. Most of the information that is contained in the article could be added to either the Fifth Nation or Tagaka articles as appropriate. HAMMEROFTHØR (wall) • 12:46, July 6, 2019 (UTC)

Keep Keep — As the author of the article, I still disagree. While the article is undoubtedly short, it is of sufficient length and remains useful. Sure, the information could probably be found in other articles, but at the same time I do not think that the article is so short that its existence is completely unwarranted; otherwise I would not have written it ;-).

This discussion is closed. The result of this discussion was:

Page will be merged with Trebuchet operators.

Merge Merge — The only reason why Kukick has a separate page is due to his name being know and having an image available.

Battle of Zhulu Pass [show]CLOSEDedit

I am creating this VfD to initiate the discussion on whether this article should be deleted. I don't have a view on delete/keep yet until I have looked at expanding the article, but given that it was marked for speedy delete there is at least merit in starting the conversation. HAMMEROFTHØR (wall) • 22:56, March 19, 2020 (UTC)

Keep Keep — I created this article so I may be a bit biased, however I think that it should be kept, because it's an important battle that happened and even though it has little content now, I'm working on expanding it but I haven't gotten around to it yet. It's briefly covered in the Yellowneck Uprising, however I think it still warrants a separate article Aryaguptaa (wallcontribs)

Delete Delete — My reasoning for deleting this article is very simple: 1) Everything known about the events at Zhulu Pass is already part of the uprising article. The Battle article will be just a de facto copy of the section in the uprising article. 2) We know almost nothing about the actual battle. We know some things about the massacre afterwards, but the info regarding the fighting is extremely limited: For example, it is not even clear who fought with Jianzhu at the pass; the novel can be interpreted as him fighting alone, with his private army or with the Earth Kingdom military. None of this is certain. That was the main reason why I myself opted not to create an article about the battle. --DyingFlameTsui (wallcontribs) 09:48, March 20, 2020 (UTC)

Merge Merge — Per DFT: if there is no relevant new info that goes beyond the scope of the uprising article, all content should be merged with that page. Just a random remark as I still haven't read the novel (shame on me), but perhaps we could create a "Battles" page, which would basically be an overview of all known battles, akin to how we have a Duels page with all its sub pages (which we probably ought to update at some point with the comic duels, but whatever).

I don't think there is enough information about Salai to have an article about them. We only know their name and that they existed some time between Wan and Yanchen's predecessor. I removed almost all of the article's information as it was mostly speculation. Dcasawang1wall 10:51, March 30, 2020 (UTC)

Delete Delete — Not enough information. Tono555 Read my Fanon! 16:38, March 30, 2020 (UTC)

Delete Delete — The single mention is not enough to warrant an article, and the information we do have is already noted on the Avatar page. HAMMEROFTHØR (wall) • 18:50, March 30, 2020 (UTC)

Keep Keep — Even though there is not much information about Salai, I think that they will give us more information in "The Shadow of Kyoshi", so the article will be able to be expanded later on. If Yangchen's predecessor has his own article, then I think Salai should too. KrazyKarma (wallcontribs) 19:08, March 30, 2020 (UTC)

If sufficiently more information on Salai is released in The Shadow of Kyoshi, then the article can be recreated and expanded as is appropriate.
