Global Dynamics

Fictional company that provides no evidence of notability or relevance outside of the television show. — Huntster (t • @ • c) 09:41, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - a major plot device in the series where most of the stories are centered or derived. Article exists as a split from the main article per WP:Summary style, as the article grew beyond a usable size. --Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 06:59, 22 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- The subject's relation to the plot has no bearing on its encyclopedic significance. Rather, you should base your argument on it having sufficient independent media coverage to merit an article, not some inherent noteworthiness of the topic itself. Even a relatively minor plot element could be notable if it had received enough media or academic attention, while some major elements will invariably fall short for the same reason.

Merge to Eureka (TV series) As indicated by Jeremy, Global Dynamics is a major plot device. While it doesn't warrant a separate article the information shouldn't be lost through a deletion or redirect. A summary of the information in this article needs to be included in the Eureka article. --AussieLegend (talk) 01:20, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
merge as specified above. No reason at all given why merge or redirect is unsuitable--probably because there is no conceivable reason, at least for a redirect. The info here is not excessively detailed, and would fit in very nicely. In fact, I think it's needed to adequately explain the show, and would do better there.
