Just like Superman, Batman and other E2 characters recently discussed (see below on the relevant lists), E2 WW fails WP:GNG being just a plot summary and list of apperances. Since Alternative versions of Wonder Woman is a redirect to Wonder_Woman#Other_versions, I'll suggset that ___location for any redirect/merge, with a note that interested editors may consider splitting the content into a subarticle on alternate versions of WW (if, of course, that topic can be shown to be notable in itself...).

Analogical to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Superman (Earth-Two), Batman from E2 also is just a plot summary+list of appearances, and per WP:ATD-R should likely be redirected to/merged to Alternative versions of Batman due to failing WP:GNG.

Claim to notability seems to be that they worked on Tron, and notability isn't inherited. Not seeing coverage, though the company name does certainly hamper the search. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 07:21, 30 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Been BLARed and reverted multiple times. All sources either fail WP:SIGCOV, are not reliable, or are WP:PRIMARY. Quick WP:BEFORE search showed nothing of substance. Should probably redirect to Big City Greens season 2. (Oinkers42) (talk) 22:20, 27 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Big City Greens season 2 I also couldn't find any good sources showing notability for this episode. Opm581 (talk | he/him) 22:53, 27 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

An article that barely has any information on it and is clearly a lost cause. I’ve looked into it so see if I could save the article, and no information could be found minus some reviews. The article, even if all available information is put into it, is not notable enough for Wikipedia inclusion Crystal Drawers (talk) 04:24, 26 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG and WP:SOFTWARE. The article is sourced almost entirely to primary/self-published material. The only third-party mentions located focus on Tachiyomi (the upstream project) rather than this fork. LvivLark (talk) 18:05, 25 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yet another minor comic book character whose entry is just plot summary+list of appearances, and my WP:BEFORE yields nothing to help with WP:GNG. Suggest redirecting to the List of DC Comics characters#R per WP:ATD-R. Years of clean up and we likely still have over a hundred similar entry, pretty much every second comic book character I still click looks like this :( Sigh.

Nothing in this article, or my before, suggests that this niche version of Superman merits a stand-alone article. Plot summary, list of appearances, and that's it. WP:GNG fail. As for WP:ATD-R; he is not mentioned at List_of_DC_Comics_characters:_S (although adding a heading there would be easy). The best I see right now would be Alternative_versions_of_Superman#Golden_Age_1938-1950s. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:52, 25 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to the proposed page in the nom. I'm not sure of the notability of the target page, but for now it's definitely the best page for covering the information about this character. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 18:37, 25 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A list of non-notable characters, pure plot sourced to plot (comic books). Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Earth-Two looks likely to end up in a redirect (target is not decided yet, maybe List of DC Multiverse worlds?), with maybe a bit of a merge. I am somewhat at a loss where to redirect/merge this lists of a characters (from what appears to be a non-notable setting). Lists of DC Comics characters?

WP:TOOSOON. To be released in summer 2027. Not ready for mainspace. All promotional, routine and announcements. Article should be moved to DRAFT or REDIRECT to Shrek_(franchise)#Shrek_5_(2027). RangersRus (talk) 22:55, 19 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Voters should have understanding of WP:NFILM guidelines and the coverages needed for the film to pass notability. Coverages should be from secondary independent reliable sources. From the above source analysis, it is very clear that the film does not pass notability as of yet. Maybe in the future when close to release date when multiple critical reviews are generated. RangersRus (talk) 15:20, 20 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Draftify or Delete - It is clear that some of the voters have misread the future film guideline, which is a poorly written guideline that has caused confusion for at least a decade. Films fall into three stages:
    • 1. Films that are not yet in production, which are not notable.
    • 2. Films that have entered or completed production, which are notable if production itself has been notable.
    • 3. Films that have been released.
The guideline for the second stage, between production and release, is poorly written, but only provides that the film is notable if production has been notable. Significant coverage of the fact that the film is in the works is not sufficient. The coverage is mostly promotional and has aspects of crystal balling. This film, like most films between production and release, is not notable. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:19, 21 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Source Analysis.

  • Omlete.com, Routine, about postpone from 2026 to 2027, why and who is starring.
  • Radiofrance, Routine, about the concern over the new design after the teaser was unveiled.
  • Revistamonet, Routine about postpone.
  • Eldiariao, Routine about postponement and about who is starring in the film.
  • Filmstarts.de, Routine, same postponement and about who is starring.
  • 24matins, Routine, same postponement
  • Lefigaro, Routine, postponement and who will be starring.
  • Lesinrocks.com, Routine, postponement and who is starring.

So no significant coverage to pass notability. RangersRus (talk) 12:17, 24 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I beg to differ. Routine, how? It’s significant and focusing on the film. It’s coverage about aspects of the production (cast, story, style) and its release. Plenty more exists. - E. Ux 12:21, 24 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
For the record, I did not list any Dutch source......only French, German, Spanish and Portuguese...I can add some in Czech, Polish, Italian, Galician, and Dutch etc, though, as significant coverage in many languages exist - E. Ux 12:27, 24 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Its ok to differ Eva UX/Mushy Yank. But like in analysis that none of them had significant coverage enough to pass WP:NFILM, that talked about same subject "postponement". Even if you add sources from any more different languages here and if they are all about same topic that has already been analysed above and for English sources, it will be of no help. RangersRus (talk) 15:10, 24 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Not same aspect of the topic exactly, and not what is called routine. - E. Ux 16:37, 24 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
routine news coverage of such things as announcements are not sufficient basis for a whole article. RangersRus (talk) 18:40, 25 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Which said coverage is not. - E. Ux 15:37, 26 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
And please amend your edited comment about Dutch sources per WP:REDACT as your changes make my subsequent reply impossible to understand. (’But if anyone has already replied to or quoted your original comment, changing your comment may deprive any replies of their original context, and this should be avoided. Once others have replied, or even if no one's replied but it's been more than a short while, if you wish to change or delete your comment, it is commonly best practice to indicate your changes.’)--- E. Ux 11:28, 25 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: No consensus here, opinion is roughly even divided between Keep, Draftify or Redirect this article.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 23:16, 26 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The film may be little less than two years away, but it already exists and it has plenty of reliable sources, so there’s no real need to delete it just to recreate it in the near future. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.243.172.162 (talk) 01:15, 27 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I don’t think we shall delete this article and recreate it in the future.
Godzilla x Kong: Supernova and Avengers: Secret Wars releases in two years in 2027 and its article hasn’t been deleted only for it to be planned to be recreated after a year or two has it?
it’s better off to let it live. 2A04:4A43:8E6F:F3EB:C067:9160:1A70:6622 (talk) 21:42, 27 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
