Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service

This article asserts no notability through reliable sources, and as such is just an in-universe repetition of plot elements from the Resident Evil video game and film articles. This is thus all duplicative, this can be safely deleted. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 19:47, 27 November 2007 (UTC) Judgesurreal777 (talk) 19:47, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as it is an organization from a notable game series played by millions of people internationally that has been made into three films also seen by millions of people. Sincerely, --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles^Tally-ho! 21:34, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

References, not "being in a movie" justify notability. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 22:25, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to get a lot of hits. Best, --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles^Tally-ho! 22:26, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to be mostly wikipedia mirrors, so not that impressive. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 22:36, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The shear number is really impressive (admittedly, I didn't even expect that many hits). Best, --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles^Tally-ho! 22:39, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

LOL what's impressive? There is not one reference in the hits! :) Please be serious if you want to keep debating this articles notability, or any other for that matter. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 22:42, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that the topic has attracted that much interest is impressive. Besides, why focus on deleting stuff people worked on rather than improving articles? Best, --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles^Tally-ho! 22:43, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why have an encyclopedia filled with trivia and junk? And besides, I know a lot of the people who help delete articles, and they are some of the most active people in building up articles, especially fiction ones. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 22:46, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that so many of our contributors are willing to volunteer time and effort to these articles suggest that a lot of our editors and readers do not regard them as "junk." Best, --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles^Tally-ho! 22:52, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And when its gone, they will contribute to articles that actually improve the encyclopedia. Judgesurreal777 17:12, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not necessarily, some may just be turned off from the project. Plus, in many's opinion these sorts of articles do improve the encyclopedia. Sincerely, --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles^Tally-ho! 18:33, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, there's only so much space here for video game trivia. DJ Creamity^{Oh Yeah!} 21:52, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This is just trivial plot information. Wikipedia isn't a guide to every little plot detail for a video game (or any subject for that matter). RobJ1981 (talk) 06:15, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Umbrella Corporation, and than hopefully salvage that one. --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 07:01, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
