Ultraman Tregear : Fails WP:GNG.

Harimua Thailand ( talk ) 02:45, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Why not?  2605:B40:13E7:F600:1566:1FAC:A05C:22B9 ( talk ) 17:10, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Harimua Thailand : We need coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject (in this case, Ultraman) to have an article.  This article has none of that, and should therefore be deleted.  Characters as popular as King Dedede have been redirected for this reason.  QuicoleJR ( talk ) 21:37, 23 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Except King Dedede is a different topic entirely and have some decent sources unlike this one (Full of primary sources). The Worst part is, there are other 3 Ultraman articles that are all sourced as primary.  🥒 Greenish Pickle!  🥒 ( 🔔 ) 00:57, 24 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I know that, I was using him as an example of how notability is not popularity or being a well-liked character.  The fact that he is in a better position than this character helps my point.  QuicoleJR ( talk ) 01:26, 24 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete There is literally no reception in reliable sources either in this article or on the web, so it does not meet GNG.  If there is a good redirect target available, redirect it there.  QuicoleJR ( talk ) 21:33, 23 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Reject: Redirect is not allowed and the article must be keep!!

QuicoleJR ( talk ) 00:38, 29 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : I was about to say redirect but if you search by the Japanese name, ウルトラマントレギア, a lot more sourcing comes up.  Cooper ( talk ) 01:54, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] See WP:THEREMUSTBESOURCES .  🥒 Greenish Pickle!  🥒 ( 🔔 ) 01:56, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Entry on Japanese Wikipedia.  Cooper ( talk ) 01:58, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Its a primary source.  🥒 Greenish Pickle!  🥒 ( 🔔 ) 01:59, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Two quick searches brought me these two .  Cooper ( talk ) 02:04, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Unreliable.  See WP:RS , if there's a reliable source then it helps GNG.  🥒 Greenish Pickle!  🥒 ( 🔔 ) 02:05, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] How do you know it's unreliable?  Just because you aren't familiar with a website doesn't make it unreliable.  I'm not familiar with those website either, but both of those websites are used dozens to hundreds of times on Wikipedia.  And they look fine to me.  Cooper ( talk ) 02:07, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] If they are not unreliable, but a situational source.  Then it couldn't even help WP:GNG .  🥒 Greenish Pickle!  🥒 ( 🔔 ) 02:10, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] WP:GNG says that reliable "sources may encompass published works in all forms and media, and in any language ."  Let's not discriminate Japanese media.  Cooper ( talk ) 02:11, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] It's not even proven as a reliable source.  But, lets drop this and move on since we have different perspective.  🥒 Greenish Pickle!  🥒 ( 🔔 ) 02:13, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] That sounds like you're just trying to deny that any source is valid, for whatever reason occurs to you at the moment.  I don't think there is such a thing as a "situational source".  Toughpigs ( talk ) 02:12, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Because its just a reveal source.  For the character it says only about this "Among the many Ultraman, Ultraman Taro is the one for whom I feel a powerful, powerful affinity" thats it.  But, I don't see any point of making this discussion much longer.  🥒 Greenish Pickle!  🥒 ( 🔔 ) 02:17, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Uh, what is a "reveal source"?  Cooper ( talk ) 02:18, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Oops.  I meant that the source is a Character reveal only.  🥒 Greenish Pickle!  🥒 ( 🔔 ) 02:19, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Situational sources have been a thing on the site for a long time.  QuicoleJR ( talk ) 00:38, 29 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm guessing this ?  Thing is, "situational" seems to mean there can be red flags in some sources that would normally be reliable, like if they were writing about something out of the usual scope.  I don't think that applies here.  Coop ( talk ) 07:09, 29 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Situational is generally accepted to mean "use with caution" and typically means that it is unacceptable in some areas and fine in others.  Some situational sources have been marked as fine for proving facts but unacceptable for proving notability.  This does not apply to all situational sources, but keep in mind that you need to be careful with that kind of source.  No comment on the individual links at this time since I don't speak Japanese.  QuicoleJR ( talk ) 11:56, 29 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] How do we tell if a source is situational though?  It felt like Greenish Pickle! was just casting their own opinion.  Coop ( talk ) 22:30, 30 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Then read Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources 🥒 Greenish Pickle!  🥒 ( 🔔 ) 23:35, 30 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I do not wish to cast votes, but if the consensus brings to delete, I would like to suggest an alternative by redirecting Ultraman Tregear to List of Ultraman Taiga characters .  I can compress and salvage whatever remains from this page to their appropriate articles.

Talk!  04:53, 4 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to List of Ultraman Taiga characters as a fair alternative to deletion.  Jontesta ( talk ) 22:07, 7 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep .  The general notability guideline can be met with non-English sources and with sources available in print rather than in digital.  Coverage of the character appears in volumes 164, 171, and 172 of Uchusen , a long-running Japanese periodical about media and tokusatsu .  There is also coverage in volumes 256, 265, and 273 of Figya Kingu ( Figure King ), a Japanese periodical about figurines and toys.  Add to this the Tokusatsu Network coverage in English that Cooper found further up in the discussion.  If there is a dispute about sourcing or content in the article, that's something to resolve through means other than AfD.  Consider reporting editors to WP:AN/EW rather than AfD'ing it to end the edit war .

Thanks, CycloneYoris talk!  08:27, 12 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete or Redirect to List of Ultraman Taiga characters : Fails GNG.  Sources show the subject exists, they do not have WP:SIRS addressing the subject directly and indepth from neutral non-promotional reliable sources addressing the subject directly and indepth .  BEFORE including a search for ウルトラマントレギア found primary sources, name mentions, nothing meeting SIGCOV, from independent reliable sources.  Keep votes are depending on name mentions and primary sources neither of which show notability.  // Timothy :: talk 17:37, 12 May 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to List of Ultraman Taiga characters or similar target.  There is insufficient sourcing here, and the Tokusatsu Network does not appear to me to be a reliable source (see [10] ).  However, redirection is an entirely appropriate, and indeed, preferred alternative to deletion.
