Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Assassin (Fate/stay night)
Assassin's importance in the series or any possible loss of information is immaterial compared to whether he can satisfy the |notability requirements set for articles about fictional topics by Wikipedia:Notability (fiction). Unless you can come up with secondary sources that comment on the character's conception, development, merchandise, or reception, then he should be merged into the relevant character list, which in this case is List of Fate/stay night characters. Shirō Emiya, being the protagonist of ''Fate/stay night'', has a fair chance of having such sources so the article can be maintained until such sources are found. Being that Assassin is a rather minor character, he should be merged, as such information is not likely to be found. Furthermore, remember that merging is not the equivalent to deleting. The original history of the page is still present for information perusal and retrieval. Nothing is lost - we're simply denying this character an article that he does not deserve due to his inability to pass the relevant notability guideline. Regards
