Deletion of Jagernaut

Comment: or '''Smerge''' (selectively merge) to  "Catherine Asaro#Saga of the Skolian Empire" section of the article about the author. She has written a series of short stories and novels over a period of years dealing with this fictional sci-fi universe. Much of the body of the work is only ebooks, though some may have appeared in conventional publication. (added: See below: Amazon verifies hardback or paperback publication by imprints such as Baen) It is not encyclopedic to make articles out of every character type,  imaginary place, gadget or event which appears in a fictional universe of this sort, when no secondary sources have discussed them. We have cut back on the similar offshoot articles in the Buffyverse, the Gundum series, and other better known and more discussed fictional worlds. If the Saga of the Skolian Empire section of the author's article gets too long, it could be spun off, undoing the earlier merge. I would prefer one article on the series if it is judged the fiction series is notable enough for one, rather than such a series of article about every plot element. It is helpful to a reader of one of the books to be able to figure out the previous events the particular work refers to. The set of articles about characters, places and events in the series appears to be a Wikipedia:Walled garden created by a fan of the series without secondary sources in early 2006, which should be should be similarly smerged or redirected.

Comment: Wikipedians with an interest in Saga of the Skolian Empire may have more positive work to contribute by working on the existing articles for Catherine Asaro and her books, making sure that their notability meets or approaches , , and . Spinning off additional articles from the books, especially when the books' own notability is unclear from the articles in their current state is a problem per "articles should not be split and split again into ever more minutiae of detail treatment, with each split normally lowering the level of notability" D.

Comment: Weren't all the articles for this book series nominated before?  No one cares about the suggested guidelines, they not binding in any way.  They were passed by a small number of people, and used as an excuse to delete things they don't like.  Wikipedia is not a set of elitist rules.  There is nothing gained by deleting articles that some would find interesting to read, and which those who don't aren't likely to find at all.  Jagernauts are notable aspects of this series, found in several of the books.  Clicking on the Google news search at the top of the AFD, I see 7 results, most of them book reviews, they an important and interesting part of the series.   If a rule gets in the way of improving Wikipedia, you ignore it
