This is actually supposed to be an Initial D chapter guide. While normally I would say move, at the same time, there should not be a redirect from this ___location, so I am also having it on VFD. This is to delete the article from this ___location. - WhisperToMe 04:05, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete it all. Wikipedia is not advertizing, and the plot summeries (if you want to call them that) seem like what would appear on the outside of a DVD case. Gentgeen 04:18, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, mangacruft with no encyclopedic value. — JIP | Talk 11:12, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, or merge into Initial D Episode Guide; I realise the manga and the anime have subtle differences, but that doesn't mean we need two complete plot summaries of the series with this level of detail. (Or even necessarily one, but that's a different debate.) — Haeleth Talk 13:29, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as comprehensively unencyclopaedic. I don;t see it adds anything to the body of knowledge on this already substantially over-represented subject. Just zis  Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] (W) AfD? 13:53, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep; I do not see how this series is different from the The Simpsons, for which we seem to aim at having 1 article for every one single episode. I support a Move to Initial D Manga Volumes and Chapters Guide with Leave no Redirect. Paolo Liberatore (Talk) 16:06, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

• A quick check of the viewing figures provides a clue :-) - Just zis  Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] (W) AfD? 19:41, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Uhm, well, there is a difference after all ;-) It's just that it does not motivate the deletion of this article enough. I mean, this still appears to be a popular series, even if not as much popular as The Simpson.
  BTW, nice new signature, Guy!

• Perhaps Initial D Manga Volumes and Chapters Guide is a bit wordy, but if this indeed deserves to be kept it needs to be moved in accordance with naming conventions. And while we'd be at it Initial D Episode Guide would need to be merged with the same thing as episode guides are only for television related articles. - Mgm|^(talk) 14:01, 13 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• As per nom , and as per nom only. VFD is sort of the wrong place to ask questions like this, since all you get is delete delete delete. As long as the data is kept someplace, find an admin and go for it. If you have consensus from everyone working at this page, this should qualify as a Speedy Delete. Don't believe any "CSD criteria" stories you may have heard. Consensus has priority. Kim Bruning 05:09, 16 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Mangacruft. *drew 12:20, 16 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
