Everyday Life in the Marvel Universe

Not worth an entire entry on Wikipedia, evident by the lack of research and citations that have gone into this fancruft listing. Just a collection of non-noteworthy details, some only from a single comic book. SilentTannenbaum 04:29, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete First, it's everyday life, which is already lame. Second, it's in a fictional universe, so it should probably be merged there if not deleted. M1ss1ontomars2k4 05:02, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It got put into a new article as it had grown too large for the original article about the Marvel Universe that contained it. There is information here which I didn't know, and I'm a big fan of Marvel comics. It's no worse than the hundreds of articles about Pokémon. Satan's Rubber Duck 12:37, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

...hundreds of articles about what?? What?? WHAT??? ;) Deizio talk 14:09, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Took me a minute to realize what he meant, too, Deizio, but if you click edit page, you'll see he was saying "articles about pokemon", but he put a category link which which puts the marker you see at the bottom of the page instead of the text in his entry. Elijya 14:37, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

So that's why today's log is in the Pokemon category... Deizio talk 15:19, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed it so it will appear now. Mango juice^talk 16:22, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Whoops, sorry everyone. Satan's Rubber Duck 16:42, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, pushing the fictional universe fanpulp series beyond the pale here. Everything in the list is entirely incidental to the importance of the Marvel stories, no encyclopedic content. Deizio talk 14:09, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, I personally found it informative, there's no reason this information shouldn't be here. Yes, it is tied to a fictional universe, however this fictional universe is arguably the largest one ever created, which necessitates the division of information into different articles. And I hardly think the assertation that "everyday life...is lame" is a meritous argument for deletion. Elijya 14:23, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep With stipulation that more sources need to be cited. This article would be too unwieldy as part of Marvel Universe but does provide further canonical information about the Marvel Universe. Psyphics 14:33, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Listify? This article contains mostly a bunch of separate lists of companies, people, groups, etc., basically, all things in the marvel universe that are mundane. I think most of the content here should be in one or more lists... but what lists? List of notable non-mutants in Marvel Universe could be one, et cetera. The first couple of paragraphs are interesting, but could easily be merged into Marvel Universe. In theory, I could see an article about how everyday life is portrayed in the Marvel Universe, and I could see it being interesting, but this is just a big list of ordinary things and not informative. If I must pick a vote, I would say "keep and tag for attention", because there's too much splitting to be done by someone closing an AfD; I think editors will have to actually get involved here.

Delete as per nom and Deiz: totally fancruft to the limit! --P199 17:26, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete non-encyclopedic fancruft. Eusebeus 18:03, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Listify One of the lists would be Public identities of Marvel superheroes, which would cover much of this. Septentrionalis 18:19, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep, usually I would consider this fancruft, but the Marvel Universe is big, detailed, and famous enough to be notable. JIP | Talk 18:31, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Change name to Fictional brands in the Marvel Universe as part of the Archive of fictional things. Ihavenolife 23:00, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
