Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Phoenix in popular culture (2nd nomination)
For now.  I'm almost 100% certain that if I go digging I will find multiple sources covering the importance of the Phoenix in literature and myth.  I am just as certain that I will find '''no''' source that covers anything close to resembling this piece of |original research through synthesis.  In my opinion, this article needs to be renamed (to something like "images of Phoenix in art" or something), drastically cut and rewritten.  Al'ar is a phoenix.  So is dumbledore's bird.   What connects the two, aside from editor selection on this list?  Why is Al'ar a significant part of WoW?  Who says?  Does that make it part of popular culture?  Why?  These questions will come up in every AfD for these IPC lists.  I'm going to dig through some sources tomorrow/tomorrow night.  If I find something, I'll try to fix this article.  If not, I'll probably change my view to weak delete
