WP:OR without independent sources, or any indication of notability. There is already a list of List of My Little Pony characters with its own errors and problems. Wikipedia doesn't allow editors to arbitrarily make repeated articles about the same topic unless there is WP:SIGCOV to justify it. Jontesta ( talk) 16:18, 31 July 2024 (UTC) reply

Article looks to be a relic in many regards of a time when articles saw far less scrutiny on their suitability for inclusion. Quite frankly it is clearly more of a fan essay, filled with significant amounts of original research. Despite coming to over 7000 words there are a mere 30 citations evident, of which there only appears to be a single source from a reliable, third-party source and the rest fanblogs or simply the primary source (i.e. the comic itself).

The article in question has been marked for improvement for nearly a decade now and it has failed to be done, instead only slowly growing and growing as more fan-essay content is occasionally added. This to me suggests there is little room to be improved to meet Wikipedia core policies on original research, verfiability, and neutral point of view.

Given the complete failure to meet any of wikipedia's policies I move to delete. Rambling Rambler ( talk) 18:36, 31 July 2024 (UTC) reply

  • Keep and improve, possibly rename to something more clearly fiction-oriented. Discrimination against "differently abled" individuals whose difference happens to be a superpower is a very well-established and well-examined literary device. BD2412 T 21:08, 31 July 2024 (UTC) reply
    @ BD2412 the problem is that the article quite clearly isn't one aimed of being an encyclopaedic detailing of superheroism as a literary device to examine attitudes towards marginalised groups, and how that's been examined critically and/or academically. Instead it's effectively just an extremely verbose list of "every form of fictional legislation around superheroes in every publication users can identify, regardless of what that legislation does or doesn't represent".
    I think a great example of how completely unsuitable it is can be seen in how it documents both the Mutant Control Act (which was used to examine issues such as authoritarianism) and a fictional court case in The Incredibles seeing superheroes being liable for the damage they cause as both being examples of "discrimination against superheroes". Rambling Rambler ( talk) 23:29, 31 July 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Keep This is the redirect target of a number of enumnerated fictional elements like the Keene Act--check 'What links here'. Just that one fictional act is covered ( 1, 2, 3 from the first 5 results) by multiple sources indexed by Google Scholar. The nomination's other arguments are non-policy based; the nominator should have spent more time with BEFORE rather than arguing against the possibility of improvement without any understanding of the article or its source material. Jclemens ( talk) 22:28, 31 July 2024 (UTC) reply
    I think you'll find you're the one making non-policy based arguments. I have literally argued how it fails to meet any of the three core Wikipedia policies, all you've done is link three paywalled journals asserting they justify the article because they may contain references to Watchmen without actually demonstrating from those sources how they'd merit inclusion or the retention of the entire article as opposed to a few lines about one comic series that would therefore merit inclusion simply on that series' existing article.
    You could also consider working on your obvious patronising attitude at the same time... Rambling Rambler ( talk) 23:03, 31 July 2024 (UTC) reply
    Not policy based? It doesn't meet notability standards, that's the bare minimum we apply around here. This "essay" contains no critical discussion of this concept, nor is it sourced to anything reliable. Oaktree b ( talk) 23:20, 31 July 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Delete This in-world essay only describes Marvel characters; rather long and rambling, not suitable for a general encyclopedia. The sourcing confirms nothing notable and most aren't even RS. Oaktree b ( talk) 23:18, 31 July 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Comment This seems like a splendid topic to have an article on, provided that there are sources discussing the overarching topic. Where are those sources? I have spent some time cleaning up the article now by removing unsourced material, improper reliance on primary sources, in-universe plot details and real-world speculation about upcoming such, and so on. Not much remains, and there turned out to not be any sources on the overarching topic cited. We can of course not simply take a bunch of examples from works of fiction that we as editors have noticed and decide that they collectively form a particular overarching topic with a scope that we define—this is not TV Tropes, and here on Wikipedia that would be WP:Improper editorial synthesis. We don't do media analysis ourselves here, we leave that to the sources. It's also difficult to emphasize enough just what an absolute mess of WP:Writing about fiction violations the article was in when it was nominated. The amount of WP:INUNIVERSE perspective was nothing short of astounding. TompaDompa ( talk) 23:51, 31 July 2024 (UTC) reply

While this subject probably passes WP:LISTN, this page is in such a poor state that it probably can't be salvaged without nuking it and starting over. It only cites one source (which is an unreliable WP:VALNET source) and it seems to indiscriminately list characters with no semblance of objective inclusion criteria (by what criteria can Aslan and Diddy Kong be considered "superheroes"??). If this subject is to have an article, it really should be written from scratch later down the line because this page is currently entirely original research. Di (they-them) ( talk) 05:10, 30 July 2024 (UTC) reply

  • Delete per nom as WP:IINFO. A lot of these are just animal characters, with no rhyme or reason. If I had to guess, some people are treating talking animals in fiction as a type of superpower? Most of these entries are unverified and there is nothing to WP:PRESERVE. Shooterwalker ( talk) 13:35, 30 July 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - I actually attempted cleaning this up some after the previous no-consensus AFD back in 2019 by removing a lot of the ones that were either completely non-notable examples (i.e., one shot characters that appeared in a single episode of a series or examples from completely non-notable franchises) or were not in any conceivable way a "Super Hero". I even tried to start a conversation on the Talk page to get further feedback and help in cleaning up, which no one ever replied to. And looking at it now, its in even worse shape and more of a complete WP:INDISCRIMINATE mess than it was then, and can't even stick to even a remotely coherent inclusion criteria. Rorshacma ( talk) 01:55, 31 July 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Move to draft and establish some real parameters for inclusion that require the animal in question to be properly identified in sources as an animal superhero. BD2412 T 21:10, 31 July 2024 (UTC) reply

Fails WP:GNG. Mostly self-authored by the subject ( User:Ideation269), who acknowledges himself on the talk page that most of this information is unverifiable. Whatever sources are provided are routine, and not independent sigcov. Jdcooper ( talk) 02:58, 30 July 2024 (UTC) reply

Only two sources, which do not appear to qualify as SIGCOV. There does not seem to be a justification based on notability as on why this episode should have a separate article (i.e. it could also be redirected to South Park (season 2). Stanley Joseph Wilkins ( talk) 05:53, 26 July 2024 (UTC) reply
