Non-notable director. The article was PROD'ed for this reason, which I endorsed because of it citing mostly unreliable sources (IMDb and the encyclopedia of Anime News Network, not sure about MUBI, but I know Rotten Tomatoes is reliable), but it was dePROD'ed by another user who claimed he meets WP:DIRECTOR. (Upon further inspection, that doesn't seem to be the case because I don't see the article meeting any of the 4 criteria mentioned there.) Couldn't find any reliable sources showing significant coverage of Koshi via a Google search. A Google News search showed nothing. Thanks, 1isall (talk/contribs) 13:19, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Minor Marvel Universe character, the article fails at WP:GNG - contains just a short plot summary and tiny publication history (seems he appeared in just two issues; talk about niche? Arguably one of the least notable comic book characters I stumbled upon over my years here... :P). My BEFORE fails to find anything better. Per WP:ATD-R, this can be redirected to List of Marvel Universe characters: M. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:12, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Niche location in the DC universe. Does not appear to be notable - reception section is based on passing mention that seems to hard to verify in the cited source anyway; other than that it's the usual fancrufty lenghty plot summary. My BEFORE fails to find anything better. WP:ATD-R suggests redirect to List of DC Universe locations might work. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:21, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Bizarro, the primary subject for this topic. There doesn't seem to be coverage of Bizarro World unrelated to the Bizarro character. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 18:08, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
There is some, in the context of oddly-shaped planets. See e.g. the sources at Extrasolar planets in fiction#Exotic shapes and [1] (though it is not clear to me whether the latter is a reliable source). TompaDompa (talk) 18:26, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This is an episode of Bob's Burgers, a TV show where every episode has a Wikipedia article, although most episodes do not have WP:SIGCOV. This article is an example: only two sources, one source is just about ratings so trivial coverage and the other to a review on The A.V. Club, which I see does generally count as a reliable source.[5] WP:EPISODE states that you shouldn't have individual articles for episodes that only contain "one or two reviews" and that use "the overall production information about the season that isn't specific to any one episode". I found a previous AfD discussion about another episode of Bob's Burgers where the result was keep[6], but that episode seems to have had more coverage than this.

A rather lengthy plot summary and list of appearances, but no reception/analysis and my BEFORE fails little of use, so the usual WP:GNG / WP:ALLPLOT issues arise. There is a significant overlap here with a more notable (and GA-level) Infinity Stones (it seems that one of the Stones is the Cube, aka Tesseract). Some content from here could be merged there, or otherwise a redirect will do. Tesseract (Marvel Cinematic Universe) already redirects to IS, not here. I will ping the editor who got IS to GA (User:ZooBlazer) for their thoughts. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:24, 8 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Infinity Gems, the comic counterpart, where the Cube seems to make more sense to be discussed given its increased prominence in comics compared to film. There's a big overlap in coverage here, and I see no reason for this to be split. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 18:29, 8 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment These aren't the same things. While it would be no big deal to excise the MCU content here, there's a good bit of comic-specific content that I do not see reflected in the proposed merge target. Jclemens (talk) 06:33, 9 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The Cosmic Cube is in fact independently notable. It gets a page length explanation in the secondary source "Marvel Arms and Armor: The Mightiest Weapons and Technology in the Universe" (2023) p.96, several pages of explanation in "100 Things Avengers Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die" (2015) p.84-86, and this article in CBR (which is considered reliable pre Valnet purchase, and the site was relaunched in August 2016 - the article is from June). Ironically, there also appears to be significant notability for a real-life supercomputer also called Cosmic Cube. There is more than one Cosmic Cube, so it doesn't fit into Infinity Stones as an overlap, either. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:33, 9 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    The first seems to be a guidebook produced in collaboration with Marvel. Even if it's produced by a different publisher the fact it's all plot and published as an official spin-off work makes it PRIMARY media. Is this explanation in the second source just plot info? In conjunction with the CBR source this is still failing Wikipedia:NOTPLOT since I see no analysis or developmental info beyond just mere plot summary and appearance listings. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 02:31, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Almost everything in this is incorrect. An officially licensed spinoff encyclopedia written and published from a non-Marvel source is still secondary. NOTPLOT is a guideline for articles and doesn't apply to sources. The article does not fail either GNG or ALLPLOT, as stated in the nomination, with several pieces of significant coverage that attest to the Cosmic Cube/Tesseract's importance, and I found massively more sources when I looked for "Tesseract" instead of "Cosmic Cube". There is no OVERLAP because there are numerous Cosmic Cubes, with only one being the Tesseract. And, as mentioned by Jclemens above, the proposed target is only about the Marvel Cinematic Universe, ignoring every appearance of the Cosmic Cube in Marvel Comics.
    Essentially the only thing you can put forth as an actual policy-based argument here is that INDISCRIMINATE is failed, but the sources do note that the Cosmic Cube is one of the most important and well known items in the Marvel multiverse. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 08:34, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    The solution is to rewrite the target so that it is not only about MCU. The MCU splits have done a ton of disservice to the project and need a lot of cleanup. As for the rest of your argument, being important in-universe is not relevant for us. We need to demonstrate importance of this in OUR universe. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:18, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Every other franchise I have worked with on Wikipedia has considered officially licensed spin-off media a PRIMARY piece of media, as it is inherently something meant to market the franchise, and thus does not have a degree of separation that would warrant it being a source that is tertiary of the subject. Sure, the sources say the Cosmic Cube may be important in the Marvel universe, but of course they're going to say that, they're officially licensed Marvel guidebooks, not independent sources making their own assessment of the Cube.
    And yes, while NOTPLOT may not apply to sources, it inherently states we shouldn't be writing articles that are going to be all plot summary, which is what this article is going to be given there are no sources that provide any non-plot context. The article as a whole is still going to run afoul of it, sources or not.
    Additionally, I proposed a merge target of Infinity Gems, the comic counterpart, not the Infinity Stones, the movie counterpart, which makes your argument in regards to movie-comics separation moot. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 18:15, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Infinity Gems. Abhishek0831996 (talk) 03:15, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Infinity Gems since the article is focused on the comics, as opposed to Infinity Stones which is focused on the films. -- ZooBlazer 07:21, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge with Infinity Gems, given there is little evidence of significant analysis or reception for this object. Galaxybeing (talk) 14:40, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

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

Minor Marvel character. Almost a stub, short plot summary and list of appearances, no reception/analysis, and nothing in my bio. Suggests WP:ATD-M to the List of Marvel Comics characters: S, where there is a section but no content - the lead or even most of the plot summary from here could be copied there.

Minor fictional gadget from the Marvel universe. The article is just the usual plot summary/list of appearances, with zero analysis/reception, and my BEFORE fails to find anything. WP:ATD-R/M to the List of Marvel Universe features, perhaps - it is listed there, with no description (guess we can copy the lead over there...). PS. AfD 10 years ago ended at keep, several sources were cited, but only one linked and described as solid: [7] - but I see only a plot summary there. Other stuff mentioned then seems even less relevant/reliable, or hard to identify :( Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:37, 7 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect/Merge to Galactus. There seems to be a bit of commentary on the subject but I'm not convinced it's independently notable of the wider topic of Galactus, which it seems to be heavily associated with in the sources provided.

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

Like Izzy Sinclair, this character really only has one strong hit: [8]. Barring the brief mentions here, Destrii is only briefly mentioned in sources, and one source is not enough to build an article on. All other sources in the article are PRIMARY ones. I'd suggest a redirect to List of Doctor Who supporting characters as an AtD, as she is already mentioned and discussed there.

A minor set of characters from DC Comics. A search yields quite literally nothing bar trivial mentions in announcements and VALNET listicles, and the current article cites no sources whatsoever. Clearly non-notable. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 03:27, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

'Redirect per above. There is a basic WP:GNG failure but redirect is good for the search term. Archrogue (talk) 18:17, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I'm going to have to agree with Pokelego999 above that Redirecting really doesn't work in this case. The group is not mentioned in the target article at all so having it redirect there just would not make sense for anyone searching for the term. And given that this article has zero sources, and the general complete lack of notability of the group, any kind of a merge would not be appropriate. Rorshacma (talk) 18:32, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting, mainly because of strong disagreement over whether or not this article should be Redirected. Maybe an editor can take the initiative and include a mention on the target article?

DePRODed alleging sources exist; no specific sources demonstrated that may prove notability, however, only a vague wave. Fails WP:NCORP/WP:CORPDEPTH with a dearth of significant coverage not specifically about games they developed. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 15:48, 31 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
