Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Universal Century technology
The article currently includes at least 7 |reliable and |verifiable secondary sources.(1 quite strange soruce in the talk page was exculded from the article)  The article got quite a lot of new sources that is different from the last deletion and a proposal of deleting the lengthy list was given, it was being cleaned up and the only thing left is deleting the long list of items below, it is not performed yet simply because some of it is notable(AMBAC, Minovsky particle, Mega particle cannon and Funnels, each of these have citations maybe except the Minovsky particle for now).  The last AfD said it is not notable out-universe, yet the current article quotes The Times and various other sources stating the topic's notability in the real world, including an ''International Academy of Gundam'' was established, the AMBAC was used in other franchises (Macross) and real life robots was inspired by these.  Furthermore, it is also a secondary source that said the series adapted real life technology thus making it an academic material.  I can present a few new sources here as well, that are 3 books called ''When SF overtakes Science'' (Japanese), ''Mobile Suit Epoch'' (1 & 2 Chinese, independently published) it mentioned the Universal Century quite a few times for its space colony, directed energy weaponry, robot technology and such.  I can understand that the article is long and over detailed, it is also quoting a lot of non-English sources due to its Japanese nature and many of the secondary sources uses the name Gundam or Universal Century in the title to make them clear of what they are talking about and confuse a lot of foreigners that they are primary sources.  Yet these should not be used to distract the point that reliable, verifiable secondary sources do exist, and the directory status of the article is not a concern of the  (notability only concern's the article, not the contents).  —Preceding Wikipedia:Signatures|signed comment added by
