Ancient technology in Stargate

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

Completely un-referenced original research and synthesis. The provided references are to Wikipedia itself. No viable third-party references are forthcoming, so this piece should be removed as its subject matter is non-notable and therefore the title is not salvageable.

Delete. It's entirely possible that something like this could be written. However, this article is just a huge collection of poorly-sourced cruft that belongs on Wikia. I found a few promising sources on Google Books: Stepping Through The Stargate (BenBella Books), The Essential Science Fiction Television Reader (University Press of Kentucky), The Postmodern Sacred (McFarland & Company), and Science Fiction Television Series, 1990-2004 (McFarland). However, the article would need to be rewritten from scratch, and this stuff could probably be briefly summarized somewhere else, like Ancient (Stargate).

Delete. As much as I loves me some Stargate, the ratio of six (potentially) reliable secondary sources to 73 primary sources is plainly unacceptable. As it is, this article consists almost entirely of plot and falls well short of meeting the notability guideline. Kudos to NinjaRobotPirate for even finding as many sources as he did. — fourthords | =Λ= | 21:22, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
