Declined prod. I think it's fair to do so just for procedure. Article is missing third party sources that can help it meet WP:N, and is missing information about reception and development to meet WP:NOT#PLOT. Declined prod saw what I saw, that there are sources to verify the existence of this phenomenon. But are there sources to WP:verify notability and meet the WP:GNG? From my search I'm confident there are not. Shooterwalker (talk) 22:29, 12 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Coverage is limited to being mentioned as part of a plot summary (examples [1]). We should mirror that by describing this fictional element in the plot summaries of the individual games, but nothing more. Update: Found something at Gamesradar but its pretty light.

merge as much as I love the Red Faction universe, no third-party sources are talking about their fictional company. I'm sure there's a wikia for red faction that hosts ample data on UMC but it's not encyclopedic. Though as an example of a running fictional corporation through multiple series it might make a list or example in the article. HominidMachinae (talk) 09:08, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
merge to Red Faction articles. --Sloane (talk) 21:01, 23 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The article is a plot-only description of a fictional work with no real-world notability and no reliable third-party sources independent of the subject to presume notability, so it is an unnecessary content fork. Even with a quick search engine test, there is no indication that it might meet general notability guideline. Jfgslo (talk) 18:19, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
