Comment the page was a fork of Loki (comics), a certainly notable comic book character; I've made the page into a redirect. The nominator should now familiarize themselves with WP:BEFORE. Dea db eef 06:36, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I can tell there is no mention of any other Loki character at Loki(comics) other then the marvel character I fail to see how this is a useful or relevant redirect. Ridernyc (talk) 14:35, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've reverted it. The problem with the redirect is that the Marvel and Dark Horse depictions are separate characters. Yes, both are based upon the mythological Loki, but that doesn't make them the same thing in and of itself. It wouldn't be a good redirect as they're by separate companies and people.

My apologies to the nominator, I misunderstood this AfD to be for the Marvel character. Anyways, my !vote is now to redirect to The Mask. A lack of character summaries in that article precludes a merge, but redirects are cheap and one seems useful here. Dea db eef 02:03, 3 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete as non-notable. Redirect to The Mask is also acceptable, but I'm not sure anyone is going to search for this term. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 22:43, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and perhaps redirect per NinjaRobotPirate. --Cerebellum (talk) 01:12, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to The Mask on account of redirects being cheap. Lankiveil ^{(speak to me)} 04:39, 15 September 2013 (UTC).[reply]
