Hello incubators

It's unclear to me whether or not this is a viable topic for an article. So I thought I'd try incubation. Have fun. Friday (talk) 02:04, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge?

The obvious question is whether this should be a standalone article. Previously it's been merged into the article on the character. I have to admit, sources that discuss the cartoon in general and not this fictional sword in particular do not help much, in my view. So, hopefully people are working on this with an eye toward making that call, rather than with an approach of more-pages-are-always-better. Friday (talk) 15:39, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Japanese swords in fiction is another potential target. I found non-reliable websites pointing out the similarity to a real weapon, the Falx. Fences&Windows 22:53, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

On first inspection, this does look like a better candidate for a merge because it's almost too specific for there to be significant coverage. I'll have a longer look for more sourcing, but I think talking about merge targets is probably a good plan. Fritzpoll (talk) 09:40, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree on merging. This artice doesn't have enough information to have it's own article. Other than that, I think it seems fine. Sakurato (talk) 19:13, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
