Matthew Linville only really had one significant role, and the notability requirements for actors suggest that people need at least 2 significant roles in notable films or television shows. Even at that, Linville's role as "Jimmy Moon" in 7th Heaven is not significant enough to get him on the fairly long list of major characters on the article about 7th heaven. To make things worse, up until recently this was really a character summary masquerading as a biography. The only thing of any note that Linville has ever done is play a second tier character in a TV show, he is not notable. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 14:52, 19 October 2013 (UTC) reply

Nick-D ( talk) 01:30, 29 October 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Unfortunately, there is a value judgement attached to the seats. That is clearly own research as the sources provided do not give any value judgement. The Banner  talk 11:20, 29 October 2013 (UTC) reply
    • I'm not sure what you're referring to here. The seats are ordered by the size of the previous election's Two-party-preferred vote margin, which is the standard way of presenting Australian electoral pendulums. The seats with a small margin are more vulnerable to a swing in votes against the party which currently holds it. Nick-D ( talk) 07:04, 30 October 2013 (UTC) reply
      • I think the nominator, when saying to a "value judgement" is applied, is referring to the classification of seats as marginal, fairly safe and safe? This classification is based on the one consistently applied by the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC), and is used in National Seat Status reports and other AEC material. This can be referenced for this list here, where the AEC applies the seat status classification to the 2013 election results. (There is a "Very Safe" classification used here which is not in the AEC definition, but if there is concern over this, it is easy to remove.) -- Canley ( talk) 10:23, 30 October 2013 (UTC) reply
        • I have removed the "Very Safe" headings as they are not used by the AEC or ABC to classify seats (I have left the coloration though), and referenced the AEC classification. -- Canley ( talk) 10:57, 30 October 2013 (UTC) reply
• Comment I have a concern about notability. It's sourced to two Australian government sources, which alone aren't enough for WP:GNG. There may be special election-coverage notability separate from GNG. I found only two news sources, but they're not exactly independent, because AFAIK they're government owned: [3] and [4]. Can we expect discussion of this particular topic in further independent RS over the next 3 years? Just my 2c. -- Lexein ( talk) 07:23, 30 October 2013 (UTC) reply
  • The ABC is entirely independent of the government. The Government funds it, but it has complete editorial freedom in exactly the same way that the BBC (it's model) does, and it's often identified as Australia's most trusted news source. This article is part of a series (see /info/en/?search=Category:Pendulums_for_Australian_federal_elections ), and this really is a standard way of presenting the standing of the two main Australian political parties: please see the Mackerras pendulum article (if Mackerras hasn't published his version of this yet, he's presumably only waiting for counting in the final seat to be decided to be completed). Nick-D ( talk) 09:47, 30 October 2013 (UTC) reply
    • Likewise for the Australian Electoral Commission—operated and funded by the Australian government, but as a completely independent statutory body. The AEC is the only source of election results to the media and the public as they administer the whole process and conduct the count, so it's silly to dismiss it as a usable factual source that is somehow tainted or biased by its status as a government-commissioned body. In terms of notability, election results, their margins and "safeness" thereof, and yes, electoral pendulums, are widely discussed, published and broadcast in the media for many years. -- Canley ( talk) 10:45, 30 October 2013 (UTC) reply
      • Fair enough. The article might be helped by the addition of the word "independent", for non-Australian readers, so they don't fall into the same trap I did. I've done that. -- Lexein ( talk) 21:36, 30 October 2013 (UTC) reply

• Keep per my comments above. This isn't just something knocked up by some Wikipedia editors as original research or opinion. It is based on solid factual data (official election results and seat classification) from the independent election administration body. Additionally, there should be no question of notability: Fairfax, News Corp and the ABC, as well as commercial television stations have broadcast and published variations on the Mackerras pendulum in their election coverage, throughout the campaign and afterwards (I have linked to some above). -- Canley ( talk) 10:45, 30 October 2013 (UTC) reply
• Keep It is sourced directly from AEC figures, and the Mackerras pendulum is a concept invented by a reputable expert over 30 years ago and used religiously in the media (especially in newspaper articles) over the entire time since. Orderinchaos 12:09, 30 October 2013 (UTC) reply

TTN ( talk) 12:55, 26 October 2013 (UTC) reply

• Comment Keep. I found an article at USA Today, which discusses the Savage Land in some depth, and an "top ten" style article at What Culture, which might not be a reliable source. I don't know. Maybe someone else can find better sources, but it looks like this might be notable. I never really liked Ka-Zar or the Savage Land stories, so I'm kind of at a loss as to what to search for. I did a few searches for articles comparing the setting to its obvious influences, but I didn't get anything good. I think there's potential here, but I'm not turning up a lot of hits. NinjaRobotPirate ( talk) 14:21, 26 October 2013 (UTC) reply

• Could it be viable as a series article? Cutting down the fictional elements to a couple paragraphs in a setting section and focusing on the real world aspect as basis for however many series seems fine (unless there aldeady is one somewhere.) If someone wants to try doing that, I'm fine withdrawing it. TTN ( talk) 14:36, 26 October 2013 (UTC) reply

• Ka-Zar, the most famous denizen, is basically just Tarzan with an attitude problem, and the Savage Land itself is basically just Skull Island. This is stated rather flatly by Crave Online. Maybe I've cobbled together enough links to establish notability, but I was hoping for something more substantial. There's a lot to say about the influences of these pulp roots, no matter how derivative the end result is. Your idea to minimize the in-universe writing certainly has merit, and I was aiming for the same thing. However, changing the article's scope would probably have to be established through consensus on the talk page. Unfortunately, I think there are a lot of people who would view removal of any content as "deletionism", despite WP:PLOT and WP:INUNIVERSE. It sounds fine to me, but I foresee problems getting any consensus. I'm going to change my vote to "keep", but it's a very weak keep, unless someone else can dig up better sources than what I found.

The article has been already deleted from ru-wiki for the lack of notability (see the discussion) and moved for deletion in uk-wiki. To summarize the discussion held there, it follows that this person holds no recognition as an economist, never published a work seriously accepted by anyone in the economic community and apparently lacks any economic education (possessing formal education as a statistician). His publicity, primarily self-induced (the creation of wiki-articles is one of the steps in this direction), is due to his non-significant appearances in Russian television and radio talkshows, invited each time to present his bizzare appocaliptic view of forthcoming Fall of AmeЯiKa (according to his "prophecies" several years ago, the US economy should have collapsed by now and the starving American citizens should be eating their pets as we speak), however winning no recognition even as a journalist or any other media-related professional. As it happened when ru-wiki article was moved for deletion, be prepared to his IP-anonymous clone attacks accusing Da Amerikan Liberals of a plot to erase the memory of his "breakthrough researches".

An author of self-published pseudohistorical books about how the Holy Grail is actually buried in Lincoln Cathedral. The article has a fair number of sources, but most of these are either very minor press coverage in Lincolnshire newspapers or are unreliable self-published fringe conspiracy/paranormal websites.

If you search for the books that Green has written, there are no reliable sources for them either. "The Lincoln Da Vinci Code" has one hit from the BBC, which is a comment someone made. The rest is all conspiracy sites and people's personal home pages. The same is true of the DVD "The Murder of Mary Magdalene: Genocide of the Holy Bloodline". There's a YouTube link, some unreliable conspiracy sites and pretty much nothing else.

Fails the criteria at WP:BIO and WP:AUTHOR. The article also seems rather promotional. That it finishes with a paragraph discussing how his theory about the Holy Grail must be right because a psychic used her powers of percipience to "see" the Holy Grail... well, that's befitting an asylum not an encyclopaedia. — Tom Morris ( talk) 08:10, 26 October 2013 (UTC) reply

Dan Green WIKI neither fails the criteria at WP:BIO and WP:AUTHOR. Whether you agree or disagree with his theories is irrelevant. He is a notable author and documentary filmmaker, who appears on television broadcasts and gives talks and lectures both in the UK and the USA. It would appear there is a concerted attempt to have this page removed simply because certain individuals don't believe in the author's work, and have misrepresented his work and quotes in an excessive pruning of the page. Undoubtedly the critics of Dan Green have never read any of his work and the depth of research he and others have conducted into the subjects he discusses.

• Nobody should be making a judgement based upon whether or not the studies have any merit, but neither should we assume that everyone voting or editing the article is doing so in order to misrepresent the author. I removed a good amount of information from the page because not only did it read like a non-neutral fan page, but it also read like a pretty big spam entry for the author. That sort of thing is fine for blogs, but not for Wikipedia. I've reverted back to my version because to be perfectly honest, the version you reverted to actually does more to make the page look non-notable and spammy than about a potentially notable person. I would like to caution you against making any such accusations in the future. My biggest concern so far is that all of the sources are predominantly local. Local coverage is always greatly depreciated because local news sources always have a vested interest in promoting someone local: it's good for business, whether the news coverage is negative or positive. As far as showing in lectures, broadcasts, or documentaries goes, those don't always translate to notability here on Wikipedia. Lectures almost never show notability unless the lecture has been covered in reliable sources that are independent of Green, the place holding the lecture, or anyone involved with the lecture. It's the same reason why most public speaking arrangements or musical concerts aren't the type that give notability, regardless of the venue or topic. Now when it comes to television appearances, sometimes those can give notability. Sometimes. If you can show where Green has been the focus of multiple television or radio spots that have focused on him (and not as someone they brought in for a 1-2 sentence "yes, this exists" trivial appearance), then this would help greatly towards notability. The one thing to be careful of is that you note what show he's appearing on. If it's a local channel then that gets depreciated for the same reasons as the newspapers. If his appearance is on a show that isn't really considered to be a reliable source, then that won't really count towards notability regardless of how well known the show is. For example, if Green were to appear on Coast to Coast AM, that wouldn't really be a good source for notability, even though the show is wildly popular. His appearance in or creation of documentaries can help notability, but only if the documentaries have received sustained coverage in reliable sources. If he was someone who appeared in the documentary, then the coverage must mention him to a reasonable extent. Just saying that he was in the documentary isn't enough. In any case, that's my biggest concern and while my current decision is weak delete based upon Green really only having local coverage, if you can show coverage in non-local and reliable sources, I'm willing to change my opinion.

• Comment. I've removed the redundant mentions and the ones without articles, leaving us with 15 articles. At this point I'm not sure if this would be best served in the main podcast article, or if there's merit in other alternatives such as creating an article about the specific software called podcatchers that plays podcasts and listing that there, or creating a subcategory for podcatcher software and linking to that on the main article for podcasts.

I'm nominating this for deletion after seeing the related article The Manhattan Dating Project up for deletion. I cleaned this up with the hopes of finding notability, as the original version [10] did assert some notability by saying that he supposedly won an award. I can't really find any mention of him winning an award, so I'm going to assume that it's minor. None of his acting roles were particularly noteworthy, as they're all bit parts or uncredited. His director and producer work are equally non-notable by Wikipedia's standards for notability. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:26, 26 October 2013 (UTC) reply

• Comment: The article's creator (whom I believe to be the manager of von Roon) had added several links to the article, which can be seen at this edit. The problem is that none of them can be used as a RS. Most of them are very unusable to show notability, as they're either links to a Weeds wikia about the episode he had a bit part in or they're articles written by von Roon. There was a link to the WP entry (and a mirror of said entry) about a college he attended, which lists him as a "notable alumni"... which means nothing, since anyone can add that and looks to have only been recently added by a newish editor with this edit. The only link that looks even slightly usable is this one and even that's fairly dodgy. Even if we accept it as a RS, that's only one source. The only source currently on the article is primary, as Backstage will frequently post articles about their members that "scored an interesting role recently thanks to a casting notice in Back Stage" and email them about it. It's essentially an advert for Backstage when you get down to it, since it's in their best interests to portray their member's success. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 06:11, 28 October 2013 (UTC) reply

I was actually going to hold off voting and comment instead but after completing my analysis, I believe there's not much for a good article here. Indeed, my first Google News search found German links, which I don't speak. As usual, I found two DVD links here (French) and here (German, "Der rosarote Panther [DVD] - Review") for Bruno and Chuck respectively. For his one-time work for NCIS, I found these links (German as well). It's possible he may be a little more known in Germany, considering it seems he grew up there, but it doesn't even appear there may be enough for a German Wikipedia article (at least from my POV). After performing nearly 10 different searches at Google News, I found nothing else. I don't even think there's enough to support a merge/redirect somewhere even though E!

• Redirect to List of screen readers. I found a review article Comparing NonVisual Desktop Access and Thunder that looks reliable, but it is the only reliable source I have been able to find. Without multiple in-depth RS, the topic fails general notability guidelines per WP:GNG. But basic information about the screen reader is verifiable and 'Thunder assistive technology' is a reasonable search term. Per WP:PRESERVE, we should seek to preserve verifiable content, so I recommend a redirect to List of screen readers, where it is already listed. -- Mark viking ( talk) 03:24, 12 October 2013 (UTC) reply

User:Mark viking: did you check the sources already within the article? ( [11], [12], [13]). Northamerica1000 ^(talk) 18:52, 12 October 2013 (UTC) reply

Sorry, I should have discussed these, too. ScreenReader.net is primary to the makers of Thunder themselves. The Communities in Control source is reliable and has three short paragraphs. The Living with Dyslexia source has one paragraph that looks a little promotional. The AAATE reference looks reliable and has one paragraph not primarily about Thunder. The review article I found and the Communities in Control source are multiple reliable sources, but the latter is marginally in depth at best. My sense is that this topic is not quite notable, but if the consensus was keep, I could see their point of view. If other in-depth RS show up, I'll be happy to reconsider my recommendation. -- Mark viking ( talk) 19:56, 12 October 2013 (UTC) reply

• Here is an article from the Russian magazine "International Affairs" covering the recent Rachmaninov concert: http://interaffairs.ru/read.php?item=10166

I just did a web search for "Slavic Observer" and the first result was this Wikipedia article, so I'm reluctant to accept it as being a significant source. Do you have any verifiable info on how significant this newspaper is? The Sacramento Choral Calendar link is extremely specific in focus. It's hard to imagine that such a website wouldn't have info on this chorale. International Affairs is a news-organ of the Russian state. That wouldn't matter, except that the concert was apparently partly funded by the Russian Consulate? That's what it looks like, anyway. Beyond that, the article is mostly a letter from one of the organizers of the concert. It's basically a press-release, and is too WP:PRIMARY to be useful, in my opinion. The video link above is mostly about the mansion that a particular concert was held at, and is otherwise a concert-listing on a local morning news show.

Does not meet WP:BAND although they almost meet WP:GNG. Walter Görlitz ( talk) 20:38, 8 October 2013 (UTC) reply

• Keep Loudflower released or was included in three releases from significant independent label grey dot records (now reflected with a Discography section), included a member who would later join notable band Drivin N Cryin, and was also part of a lawsuit in which the band sued its record label, forming a separate corporation in order to do so. It is questionable whether the article meets WP:BAND under criterion 5, but the sum total of the article certainly meets WP:GNG. - Brother Bulldog ( talk) 21:10, 8 October 2013 (UTC) reply

I didn't realize that being included on compilation recordings counted toward notability and that blogs were RSes that counted toward notability. How foolish of me. What we have for sources is a RS review, a press release from the band's label, a blog, and the result of a legal settlement. Only the first counts. That's why I nominated them. Please read the guidelines again since they don't meet GNG or BAND. Walter Görlitz ( talk) 22:37, 8 October 2013 (UTC) reply

Sarcasm aside, you bring up valid points, which I am more than happy to address. First, I was not including the compilation towards criterion 5 of BAND, and I had already acknowledged that whether the full album and EP together qualified as notable was questionable. Second, I find it unusual that you wouldn't consider the results of legal proceedings to be a RS; I would think court records are reasonably reliable. Finally, I agree that the article needs more references, and I have a list of several that I am currently tracking down. (two from 7ball, one from The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, one from HM, and an entry in The Encyclopedia of Contemporary Christian Music), but unfortunately none of them have online editions from the late 1990s, so I'm having to find print copies to cite. Would the inclusion of those RSes meet your standards? - Brother Bulldog ( talk) 18:35, 9 October 2013 (UTC) reply

There are a great many lawsuits and their existence is not confirmation of notability. If the issue is that the suit existed, the settlement would suffice. To confirm notability, not so much.

Feature articles in the music magazines would count toward notability. Reviews wouldn't. Feature articles from The Atlanta Journal-Constitution would be great, but fluff pieces that discuss the band's upcoming tours or a recent performance at a local club wouldn't. Non-trivial coverage is the key here.

The Encyclopedia of Contemporary Christian Music (Powell) has a half-column entry on the band. Just after the two-and-a-half page entry on the Lost Dogs, and just before the three-quarter-column entry on Love Coma and one-column entry on Darlene Love. Not all entries in that tome are worthy of inclusion on Wikipedia. For instance, over the next few pages we see the same size entries for Lovewar, Luit-Kriss, [[:Claire Lynch], and Windy Lyre. Non-trivial coverage is the key here as well. Walter Görlitz ( talk) 19:01, 9 October 2013 (UTC) reply

Interestingly, I notice you also nominated Love Coma for deletion, on very similar grounds, and that article was retained due to no consensus.

IMDB only offers a one-line confirmation that he appeared in a documentary along with a lot of other people; that's a trivial mention. The second source is a blog entry that merely reprints the subject's own remarks verbatim; even if this was a reliable source (it's not) it's still WP:PRIMARY and unhelpful in establishing notability. Msnicki ( talk) 08:44, 11 October 2013 (UTC) reply

I admit, I haven't watched the documentary. What leads you to believe his appearance is trivial? Boing Boing is an online magazine, not a blog. It is certainly not self published. I consider it reliable. There is a bit more to the article than the direct remarks. ~ KvnG 16:05, 11 October 2013 (UTC) reply

I didn't say his appearance was trivial, I said the one-line entry in IMDB is trivial. His appearance might be a big part of the documentary. But all of that is WP:PRIMARY, it's him giving his own opinions. It's possible that documentary includes lots of other people talking about Reekes not the Macintosh, but that sounds unlikely and, even if true, would invite closer inspection whether any of it's really WP:INDEPENDENT. Msnicki ( talk) 18:09, 11 October 2013 (UTC) reply

Just to be clear, I am considering the documentary, not IMDB, to be the source. I don't understand how a documentary would be considered WP:PRIMARY for the purposes of establishing notability. The filmmakers considered Reekes notable enough to interview for a film about personalities at Apple. I consider that WP:SIGNIFICANT. ~ KvnG 20:44, 11 October 2013 (UTC) reply

Here's the difference.
From WP:PRIMARY, "Primary sources are original materials that are close to an event, and are often accounts written by people who are directly involved. They offer an insider's view of an event, a period of history, a work of art, a political decision, and so on."
And from WP:SECONDARY, "A secondary source provides an author's own thinking based on primary sources, generally at least one step removed from an event. It contains an author's interpretation, analysis, or evaluation of the facts, evidence, concepts, and ideas taken from primary sources. Secondary sources are not necessarily independent or third-party sources. They rely on primary sources for their material, making analytic or evaluative claims about them."
I hope that's helpful. Msnicki ( talk) 21:00, 11 October 2013 (UTC) reply

The film is made by a couple independent filmmakers. There's no indication that it is produced by or commissioned by Apple or Jim Reekes. It does quote information from primary sources as any good secondary source does but those excerpts are edited and put into context by the filmmakers. As is clear from the WP policy you've quoted, this is what secondary sources do. I've discovered that the film is available on YouTube (you'll have to search for Welcome to MacIntosh yourself as WP won't allow me to put YouTube links on this page. Definitely looks like a secondary source to me. Let me know if you don't agree. ~ KvnG 23:07, 11 October 2013 (UTC) reply

No, I do not agree. This is an insider's account of his own involvement in the story. That's about as WP:PRIMARY as it gets. See above. To argue otherwise, you need to provide evidence that some substantial part of the documentary is really about Reekes himself, not merely adding his first hand account to the Macintosh story. Msnicki ( talk) 23:46, 11 October 2013 (UTC) reply

WP:GNG actually does not require secondary sources, only sources independent of the topic. In any case, Reekes has no connection to the documentary, he is independent of its production and marketing. It's like if someone gave a quote to a journalist writing a newspaper article, that quote would be notable. Or if a journalist wrote a magazine article, or book, about Reekes based in part on interviews with Reekes. It's no different with a documentary. The producers and directors have full editorial control and can include/exclude content, make Reekes look any way they want. It's not a work by Reekes, it's a work about Reekes. -- Green Cardamom ( talk) 00:02, 12 October 2013 (UTC) reply

That's not quite correct. From WP:GNG, ""Sources" should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability." (emphasis added)
And from WP:BASIC, "A person is presumed to be notable if he or she has been the subject of multiple published secondary sources which are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject." (emphasis added)
The exceptions are the cases identified in WP:ANYBIO, where there's evidence of notability in lieu of sources. This is not one of those cases. But also, there is a difference between including a clip of Reekes telling his story and the documentary offering any secondary opinion of him or what he's said. That's missing.
At this point, I'm going to let it rest. The closing moderator should certainly be capable of resolving questions of what the guidelines ask of us and I'm satisfied I have this right. Msnicki ( talk) 00:51, 12 October 2013 (UTC) reply

Still dubious notability at best, very little sourcing found. Last AFD closed as "no consensus" after two relists. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{( What did I screw up now?)} 02:19, 26 October 2013 (UTC) reply

• Delete Unclear of the notability as a lot of the references maybe in local language, at this point does not meet WP:GNG in all public english referenceable sources. -- Nlfestival ( talk) 19:13, 26 October 2013 (UTC) reply

• Delete In the first AfD I looked for sources in English and Farsi. Google Books comes up with no scholarly notice. The two sources in the article are unreliable. -- Green Cardamom ( talk) 07:09, 27 October 2013 (UTC) reply

List of species in Magic: The Gathering

List of species in Magic: The Gathering (  | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – ( View AfD · Stats)

(Find sources:  Google ( books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is an overly in-depth list of plot details unnecessary to understand the main topic of Magic: the Gathering. It lacks real world information from reliable, third party sources to establish notability. Such detail is more suited to Wikia, and anything discussing these elements can describe them in the relevant text. TTN ( talk) 17:58, 15 October 2013 (UTC) reply

Delete Good for a fan wiki, inappropriate for WP. -- MASEM ( t) 05:45, 16 October 2013 (UTC) reply

• Keep. This needs trimming and sourcing, however as a group this squeaks past the notability bar for inclusion. Individually none (or very very few) of these would have any sort of notability, however the main concerns of the nominator here are issues for cleanup, not deletion, and AfD is not for cleanup. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 13:44, 16 October 2013 (UTC) reply

What is the out-of-universe importance of species of MtG outside of that being a game mechanic (eg cards with abilities to affect cards of specific species)? -- MASEM ( t) 14:34, 16 October 2013 (UTC) reply

The fact that "discussing them in the relevant text", as suggested by the nominator, would require sufficient coverage in toto to require a WP:SPINOUT...which, well, here we are. It's also WP:CONSENSUS that lists like this are in fact appropriate; see for instance List of Dungeons & Dragons monsters and Ultra Monsters. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 16:06, 16 October 2013 (UTC) reply

WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a reason to keep, and both examples are ones I would consider for deletion as well. Particularly here, this is bordering on WP:GAMEGUIDE; the reader's understanding of MTG as a whole (the game or universe) is not lost if we remove this species list, since it is otherwise a typical fantasy setting and the species only has a small game mechanic effect. -- MASEM ( t) 01:07, 17 October 2013 (UTC) reply

It's true that it's not a reason to keep, however it does provide an indiciation as to what sort of articles are generally considered acceptable. You know, recently there was a big brouhaha over this at ANI, and the accusation was made that there is a movement on Wikipedia to merge non-notable things like individual species and character articles for fictional properties to lists like this one, under the grounds (as is consensus and accepted practice) that while they're not notable individually, they're pefectly acceptable as part of a list - and then to attempt to delete the list so as to "purge" Wikipedia of the "non-notable fictional property". I scoffed at that there - except, now, I'm seeing it in action, with this and other perfectly reasonable lists being thrown under the AfD bus because some editors don't like it, and the fact that Wikipedia is not paper and shouldn't be treated like it is, and that WP:V is policy while WP:N is just a guideline that (as a guideline) can be expected to have perfectly reasonable exceptions, got forgotten somewhere along the way. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 22:25, 17 October 2013 (UTC) reply

• I'm not even sure where to start in looking for reliable sources. The Bushranger, do you have any ideas? That said, we do have "list of character" articles all the time for large series/franchises. MtG is pretty darn big and this is pretty much as high a level as you could get. weak keep for now. Hobit ( talk) 05:02, 17 October 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Unfortunatly MtG is not my main area of gaming interest (my knowledge is basically WP:ITEXISTS, alas). - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 22:25, 17 October 2013 (UTC) reply

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
