Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Iksar

Iksar

This is an article about the fictional race from the EverQuest games. While I would perhaps support a general article discussing all the races of Norrath, it appears that the Iksar are the only one of the races to have their own article. The article is unsourced, and I don't think this single race is notable enough for inclusion. Powers ^T 12:01, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge To the article that contains the rest of the races, wherever it is--Phoenix-wiki (talk · contribs) 12:13, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is no such article. Powers ^T 12:16, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps one should be organized to prevent the creation of a hundred new fictional character/race articles every week. -RiverHockey 14:00, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Iksar article is over three years old, and as far as I know, none of the other races have articles. It doesn't seem like an urgent need. Powers ^T 15:12, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the list of Game-related deletions. --Gavin Collins 14:38, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as article has no primary or secondary sources, and outside of the game guide from which they are derived, this fictional race is not notable. --Gavin Collins 14:38, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to a new article on the races of EverQuest. I'm not sure how "game guide" got into this discussion, since this is a race from an MMORPG. Pinball22 16:04, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Gavin Collins. Without reliable secondary sources, it is impossible to establish notability per WP:FICT. Doctorfluffy 19:35, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

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

Merge as per Phoenix-wiki. If there isn't a "universe"-based list, one should be created. This series isn't going away and the races in it are recurring, so I agree with RiverHockey's comment.. --Sesameball^Talk 19:32, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- And what if there are no reliable third-party sources from which to create such an article? Powers ^T 21:47, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - Then there's somewhere else this can be merged that can satisfy everyone who insists on wanting third-party sources even for content of notable fiction. For example, there isn't a page regarding the series universe (only individual games) even though it is quite notable. Regardless of what is eventually decided, other content of similar design will clearly be meant to go there. --Sesameball^Talk 22:54, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per above. STORMTRACKER 94 21:41, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There are no sources on this article. It also lacks real world notability, so creating more race articles would only go against those ideals. If more race articles were to be created, readers who do not play EverQuest will have little to no interest in this article, giving little reason to create them nor keep this one.
