Deletion of Space Battleship Yamato (spaceship)

Comment: Extremely notable vessel in science fiction. Nominating an article on a topic even the nominator acknowledges is notable simply because no one's added what he/she considers to be reliable sources is an invalid AFD rationale.  applies: don't see sources you like? ''Add them

Comment: Whoa now.  No speedy keeps.  the article doesn't cite independent sources that cover the subject in significant detail. Now I don't know the first thing about that series, but if that coverage doesn't exist then wikipedia shouldn't have an article on it.  Just because the nominator says that something might be notable doesn't really mean that we should rush in here to declare it so in the absence of |the requisite sources

Comment: The author agrees this is notabile. Space Battleship Yamato is a historically significant anime. This article, Space Battleship Yamato (spaceship) is a consolidatation of several other articles (Wave Motion Gun, etc.) detailing the technical aspects and history of the main character (the ship itself) of the anime that has lasted 35 years (yes, it is still being worked on in 2008). One quick search found pages of articles discussing the ship itself - while referencing the movies, books, TV series, and video games that are featuring this character (the ship) as its main protaganist. From iction, "Notability of an element may also be shown through secondary-source analysis of the main work of fiction, citing the importance of the element to the work."  Without the main character (once again, to clarify, the ship itself), there would be no TV series, no movies, no books, and no games based on that show

Comment: individual "character" of the series and not a notable one. Needs significant coverage in reliable, third party sources to have a standalone article. No evidence of such coverage, with entire article seeming to be a blend of plot and . Fails
