Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of fictional Alumni of Real Universities
: "If the sources cited do not explicitly reach the same conclusion, or if the sources cited are not directly related to the subject of the article, then the editor is engaged in original research."  This is a classic example of synthesizing information into original research.  You take Tony Stark who went to MIT (A), then you take Chuck who went to Stanford (B), and you realize that there are any number of fictional characters whose back story includes attending a real university (C). Once again, : "Editors should not make the mistake of thinking that if A is published by a reliable source, and B is published by a reliable source, then A and B can be joined together in an article to come to the conclusion C."  Where is the third party source that discusses this topic?  Find one reliable third party source that discusses the topic of Fictional Alumni of Real Universities ''as an independent topic'' and you will prove this is not OR
