Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Comics and animation

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion and merging of articles related to Comics and animation. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion and neither does removing an AfD from this page remove it from the main page at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:deletion sorting|Comics and animation|sig=~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Comics and animation. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list would need to pass WP:NLIST, meaning that the category of "songs in ALL Beauty and the Beast iterations" is covered significantly by two reliable sources.

• Merge into Beauty and the Beast (1991 soundtrack) as WP:ATD. I could find no significant coverage of this group of songs - no where close to passing WP:NLIST. WidgetKid ^Converse 18:58, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

  How it could be merged to 1991 soundtrack article? It already has full track listings. --Mika1h (talk) 00:07, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

Yes, I looked at this as an option, feeling it could be done as a bold redirect. However, this list covers songs not found in the 1991 soundtrack. It unites all songs from all versions of Beauty and the Beast, so I can't see a merger as a plausible solution.--Boynamedsue (talk) 03:04, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

A section could be added to mention the non-soundtrack songs/versions. Or maybe add them to the movie article? WidgetKid ^Converse 19:14, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

The problem with this is that most of the songs were from other BATB media. They're part of the same overall franchise, but they aren't part of the 1991 film. It would be like someone creating a subsection at The Avengers (soundtrack) to list the songs from Age of Ultron, Infinity War, and Endgame. They're related, but not in enough of a way to make them pertinent enough to mention.

The only place I'd mention them would be in the movie specific pages. I'm not sure if we can justify mentioning them in any depth at Beauty and the Beast (franchise) as I don't think that song lists are a common addition to franchise pages. Soundtracks as a whole can usually have their own section, but individual songs usually aren't notable enough to list outside of the soundtrack or specific film pages.

Are you suggesting it should be expanded to cover all iterations? OneOldNewspaperFan (talk) 21:24, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

It already covers all iterations. I'm suggesting that it doesn't meet the notability criteria of WP:NLIST because I haven't found a reliable source that covers the set "songs in all iterations of Beauty and the Beast".Boynamedsue (talk) 03:10, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

It covers a wide range of topics—including nature, traffic safety, sports rules, art, music, and dance, as well as self-care skills, social interaction, and etiquette in public places—and features a cast of 168 characters. Distinct from typical early childhood educational programs and purely entertainment-oriented cartoons, this series emphasizes scientific validity and practicality; it encourages children to discover answers through their own thinking rather than relying on traditional, textbook-style instruction."

     The book notes: "一家出版機構得知賈愛華創意設計了關於三衹小豬的《Q城寶貝》，提出以一集一萬元，總價360萬元的價格構買文稿版權。她果斷地拒絕，決心自己來做會動的畫。不久，賈愛華成立了“西貝制造創意工作室”，設計制作動畫片《Q城寶貝》。她想，為了天下的孩子，自己付出一點，累一點，也沒什麼的，不就幾集動畫片嘛。... 有一家電器制造商找到愛華，愿意投入2億元資金，合作開發《Q城寶貝》，條件是那三衹小豬要換成他們產品商標。"

     From Google Translate: "A publishing house learned of Jia Aihua’s creative concept for *Q-City Babies*—featuring the "Three Little Pigs"—and offered to purchase the copyright for 3.6 million yuan (at a rate of 10,000 yuan per episode). She decisively refused, determined to bring the drawings to life herself. Soon after, Jia established the "Xibei Creative Studio" to design and produce the *Q-City Babies* animated series. She reasoned that for the sake of children everywhere, a little extra effort or fatigue was nothing—after all, it was just a few episodes of animation. ... An appliance manufacturer approached Jia, offering to invest 200 million yuan to co-develop *Q-City Babies*, but on the condition that the "Three Little Pigs" be replaced by the company's product logo."

  There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Project Q Baby (simplified Chinese: Q城宝贝; traditional Chinese: Q城寶貝) to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

Note that there is no List of Marvel Comics species nor List of Marvel Comics races, nor List of Marvel Universe species nor List of Marvel Universe races. We may need to standardize Universe and Comics use, frankly. I also found Species of the Marvel Cinematic Universe; there is no Species of the Marvel Comics. It may be another good target for redirect, it should also become a proper list, and I doubt species of MCU are notable more than the species of MC in general, sigh. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:19, 20 September 2026 (UTC)

The entries at List of X-Men enemies and Mutant (Marvel Comics) should then point readers to the Features entry for the Neo. The other viable targets should be handled in a separate discussion, but should not hold up this one from being merged accordingly. — Trailblazer¹⁰¹🔥 ^{(discuss · contribs)} 21:54, 21 September 2026 (UTC)

Propose merging Template:R comics with possibilities with Template:R with possibilities; Template:R comics from alternative name with Template:R from alternative name; Template:R comics to list entry with Template:R to list entry; Template:R comics from merge with Template:R from merge; Template:R comics from related word with Template:R from related word; and Template:R comics to section with Template:R to section, respectively.
Note that this isn't a proposal to merge all these templates into one huge template, but to merge the comics redirect templates into their non-comics equivalents. I think the comics redirect templates should be merged into their respectively similary titled templates, without the word 'comics' in them, because they otherwise serve similar purposes, and I don't see the point of them being separate. I'm open to the proposals of the templates without the word 'comics' in their titles having the {{{comics}}} parameter instead if that's what Wikipedia:WikiProject Comics and its participants want. I'm surprised these proposals weren't made sooner. I've deliberately excluded 'Template:R comics naming convention' from this proposal because it serves a specific purpose and because there's no non-comics-related template similar to that one.

• Comment: I'll wait for the rest of the discussion before formalizing my position here, but I don't find this template scheme in today's landscape the correct way. If this is a valid scheme for comics, then there is no reason why this isn't valid for films, television, horror, NZ politics, F1, etc. For the same reason I also don't think adding a parameter or having the categories (for example Category:Comics redirects from merges) are a good idea. Other media have templates such as {{R from film}}, {{R from television program}}, {{R from song}}. If comic books need a redirect template, then {{R from comics}} or {{R from comic book}} can be created (characters already have {{R from fictional character}}). If the comic book WikiProject wants to track their pages, then just add {{WikiProject Comics}} to the talk page of the redirect. Gonnym (talk) 15:59, 5 November 2025 (UTC)
• Support: I've long felt there are too many near-duplicate rcats. I see no reason to have separate versions just for comics. Alas, I don't work in comics articles so I'll leave it to others to hammer out the specifics. I see you've announced this TfD on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Comics, so that's good. — voidxor 19:03, 6 November 2025 (UTC)
• Comment: Not sure I completely understand the ask here. If you merge, for instance, Template:R with possibilities and Template:R to list entry, what are you wanting to merge them into? I've particularly used both of those redirect templates on numerous pages that have nothing to do with comics. Maybe instead of merging, you more correctly want to delete all of the "R comics..." type redirect templates, and simply start using the correct redirect templates? — TadgStirkland⁴⁰¹(Tadg^Talk-Email) 19:41, 6 November 2025 (UTC)

@TadgStirkland401: The nominator wants to merge all the comics into the non-comics. I.e. merge the first with the second ("R comics with possibilities" with "R with possibilities"), the third with fourth ("R comics from alternative name" with "R from alternative name") and so on. Christian75 (talk) 20:43, 6 November 2025 (UTC)

As of 2025-11-09 I feel that the proposal is clear enough (replace all the "R comics" templates with their regular counterparts), and I weak support because this also seems unnecessarily redundant to me. If anyone has a good reason for keeping them then I'd be interested to hear it! But my hunch is that it's just historical cruft. Hopefully an automated replacement can also automatedly "add {{WikiProject Comics}} to the talk page of the redirect" or whatever (if anyone actually cares about that; I don't really know) as well.

• Support per voidxor. Christian75 (talk) 20:43, 6 November 2025 (UTC)
• Support the actual intent here. This was mislisted as a single merge (i.e. to one template), when the intent is clearly to merge {{R comics with possibilities}} to {{R with possibilities}}, then separately merge {{R comics from alternative name}} to {{R from alternative name}}, and so on. This should be done unless there's a compelling reason we need to divide each of these "R with/from/to generic_maintenance_categorization" rcats into topical subdivisions, and that comics in particular should be one of those subdivisions. (Even if that's actually true in some case, it is not necessarily true for all of them.) We shold do all of these merges in absence of a strong showing that one or more should not be merged. This is basically useless micro-intersection, of a sort that badly mixes categorization types and purposes. The identification of something as a comics topic is already accomplished (and is a reader- as well as editor-facing matter) by comics topical categories of the usual sort. Meanwhile, "R with/from/to generic_maintenance_categorization" categories are maintenance only and just editor-facing (nor do these generally need to be topically split, since editors working on categorization of, and other maintenance pertaining to, redirects that go in such categories are doing so on a cross-topical basis. Another way of putting it is that a redir being from an alternative name (or whatever) and it also pertaining to comics is a trivial intersection and non-defining characteristic.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  21:01, 6 November 2025 (UTC)

• Support what was presumably the intent here per SMcCandlish. There is no clear reason why comics, or any other topic, needs a distinct version of the general purpose RCAT templates. ~2025-31245-28 (talk) 22:30, 6 November 2025 (UTC)

  Support the actual intent here i.e. to abandon the need for comics to have their own set of redirect templates. The generic set of templates do the job perfectly well. BobKilcoyne (talk) 06:49, 7 November 2025 (UTC)

Question to supports: You are all saying you support the nomination, but three of you said per "SMcCandlish" which (if I read correctly) isn't in support of continuing with the comic-specific categorization. So it would seem the intent here is to replace (or redirect), rather than merge any functionality. Gonnym (talk) 07:14, 7 November 2025 (UTC)

• Only Support merging the comic variants of these R-cat templates into the corresponding general templates with matching names. For the avoidance of doubt, I Oppose merging the various R-cat templates that do not include the word comics. The proposal is badly worded and confusing at first glance. It would have been clearer if a separate proposal was made for each template that it was proposed to merge with its corresponding target template; as I interpret the proposal, it is only proposed to merge Template:R comics from merge into Template:R from merge, etc. This is not actually a proposal to merge all these templates together, even though it appears to be one based on the way the templates are listed. Hence my partial opposition. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 04:21, 8 November 2025 (UTC)

• Delete all the "redirect comics" after they have been replaces with the "normal" R-templates. My first vote was support, but it was unclear what I was supporting, but still per user:voidxor. strong oppose merging. Christian75 (talk) 08:24, 8 November 2025 (UTC)
• Support if I've understood correctly that this is fundamentally equivalent to replacing "R [media type] from [relationship between source and target article]", at least for those articles to do with comics. If we have "Redirect from alternative name", we don't need a more precise "Redirect from comic with alternative name", for example. I think I'm in agreement with BobKilcoyne.

• Support. Daask (talk) 16:19, 12 November 2025 (UTC)
• Support mergers of 'R comics xyz' to equivalent 'R xyz' templates and categories. The duplicate 'comics' categories serve no useful purpose. There is no clear rationale for comics' special treatment and this is likely to lead to inconsistent tagging. Oppose adding 'comics' parameter as I have not seen any rationale for adding this. Overall, I support simplifying Rcats and not having a million ways to subcategorize them unless there is a meaningful benefit to maintenance or another aspect of the project. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 16:47, 12 November 2025 (UTC)
