Battle of Kusegawa

This article is about a fictional battle in a video game that violates Wikipedia's policies about writing about fiction. It has escaped nomination to this point because it violates the policy so severely that it is difficult to tell that this is in fact a purely fictional battle as a google books or google scholar search will confirm.

Delete as Savidan wrote. The article's creator (User:Opopoa Talk Contributions) removed (in this edit) an "in-universe" template that another editor had added. Similar problems arose in other articles by the same author about fictional battles. See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rescue of Mitsunari. Siege of Edo Castle was deleted by proposed deletion. Fg2 (talk) 01:38, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or rewrite as an article on the ja:杭瀬川の戦い real battle. 76.66.192.91 (talk) 05:25, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Article doesn't even indicate what make-believe universe this is from. Can't make heads or tails of it. --EEMIV (talk) 13:17, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There appears to have been a small skirmish at Kuisegawa (note the i, 杭瀬川の戦い). This article is based on the game, so worthless. --Apoc2400 (talk) 23:08, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Stubify to the extremely basic information that there was a battle at Kuisegawa the day before Battle of Sekigahara, move to Battle of Kuisegawa to correct the spelling, and rebuild by translating ja:杭瀬川の戦い. The real event does need to be covered, and that the video game has a version of it should probably be mentioned ... eventually. —Quasirandom (talk) 21:00, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Samurai Warriors 2 is a sweet game, but it's really not the kind of thing you want historical articles based on. Rather than translating what appears to be an unreferenced Japanese article just to fill the void, I'd rather someone with knowledge of the Sengoku period came along and did the job properly using relevant sources. There must be plenty of people with some interest in this area, Oda Nobunaga 0wnz. Someone another 16:13, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
