This article is made up of only plot summaries. I don't see any real world information that sufficiently establishes notability. Fangusu (talk) 18:55, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose: No actual reason presented why it has to be deleted aside of bias. It's not made up of plot summaries but summarizes the appearances of the neo-mythological figures presented in the series. (Most are missing some more info on them though.) If anything add a {{Refimprove}} note on top of the article... --Fixuture (talk) 20:13, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep No real reason presented for deletion or effort to fix the article issues, and nominator has an SPI against them currently. Nate • (chatter) 21:19, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
- Delete We already have the major characters summarized at Digimon Data Squad#Characters in addition to an oversized plot. Why do we need this list that the main article already summarizes? - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 21:35, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
- Comment Feel free to nominate this again if closed due to the nom's SPI; my rationale is based on a string of WP:BADFAITH nominations for Digimon articles rather than one well-researched and presenting possible solutions. Nate • (chatter) 00:59, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
- Research takes time though, years for some articles. If this is not deleted due to the SPI and WP:BADFAITH issues then I wont re-nominate this again for at least a week or so. I want to see someone who knows the series (because I don't) actually improve this list. Im not trying to sound harsh, I would love it if this article was improved. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 01:57, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

- @Mrschimpf: Please stop talking about my Sockpuppet Investigation. I am sorry about that misconduct. I don't think it is relevant to this AfD and, for another thing, I am not an evil person. Fangusu (talk) 02:36, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
- Comment I said absolutely nothing about you being evil. However, having a history of socking and nominating a series of articles dealing with the same topic is not suggesting good faith to me, and if you bring a page to AfD you must exhaust all avenues of research on its notability, which I don't see within these nominations.

- Merge then: that whole section should be merged into List of Digimon Data Squad characters with the Digimon Data Squad#Characters-section being comprised of just the main characters and a link to the list via {{Main|...}}. --Fixuture (talk) 18:53, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
- Delete Article is dreadfully underdeveloped and after a series of cuts by an admin, it would be better not to exist. —KirtMessage 06:21, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
- Delete per Knowledgekid87's reasoning. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 12:39, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
- Delete This is merely a list of names with no information offered. How do we even know which are the main characters in an article with no character information? Dimadick (talk) 22:00, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
- Well that's why it needs to be improved, not removed. Also edits such as this one here aren't helping with getting it to a state of being actually valuable and more than just a "list of names with no information offered". --Fixuture (talk) 21:57, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
- There is nothing stopping anyone from re-creating this list in the future, we already have the information duplicated elsewhere though. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 17:14, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
