Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of fictional swords (2nd nomination)
I'm hearing a lot of arguments based on the 'centrality' of these objects to the works of fiction they appear in.  This is the kind of argument that will come up under the proposed  and I'm not heartened by its use here.  ''Who says'', aside from editors here, that swords are central to any work of fiction?  Short form reviewers?  Critical analysis?  Author or director commentary?  How do we move that debate beyond having the people who vote "keep" say swords are central and the people who vote "delete" say swords are ephemeral
