All the references in this article are to a fansite. No evidence that this is notable. Divebomb (talk) 17:36, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. This doesn't make sense. The 'fansite' isn't just someone saying 'G.I.Joe is cool'. Much evidence exists. Lots42 (talk) 01:36, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment A fansite is a fansite is a fansite. --Divebomb (talk) 06:19, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Fansites don't establish notability. Tfu.info and Seibertron.com don't establish notability for Transformers characters, I think the same would apply to G.I. Joe fansites. Since the site mainly covers G.I. Joe stuff, it's not very third-party, even if Hasbro isn't directly involved with it. (Coincidentally, I'm also someone who goes by a username that's some word with four letters directly followed by the number 42 with no space in between", but not on this site.)NotARealWord (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 16:53, 20 October 2010 (UTC).[reply]
Keep - Lots42 has done lots of work with this one in the past, and this one has potential. BOZ (talk) 14:29, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Someone has to create that page, and merge the content after the AfD has been resolved. Even if the article does get deleted, they can get it's page history back via WP:REFUND and make the article redirect to said list. NotARealWord (talk) 16:35, 22 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Sources prove it exists, but fail to indicate notability. No notability, no page. Sven Manguard Talk 05:04, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

  • Delete. Per WP:V, "If no reliable third-party sources can be found on a topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it." There are no such sources in evidence.  Sandstein  07:00, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete unless independent reliable sources are added. PhilKnight (talk) 12:31, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to a List of G.I. Joe vehicles. Sgeureka's idea sounds good. Yes, someone has to do it... the closing admin perhaps? ;) --hkr Laozi speak 13:28, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete no need to merge into a vehicle list, no cultural notability and no substantial coverage in reliable sources. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 14:42, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete unless someone can show notability with sources. Dwanyewest (talk) 01:29, 24 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
