Final Fantasy XV

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Essentially the article concerns itself is based on a unannounced video game that refers substantial referencing opinions of those associated to the franchise. A merge discussion has taken place, however some have felt (see below) the article should still be deleted as it appears to be heavily violating

Note: Previous discussion regarding merging was opened here; Talk:Final Fantasy XV andWikipedia talk:WikiProject Square Enix#Concern in FFXV_page. I will point out as nominator I prefer a merge, but this has been twice suggested for deletion and for keeping the article despite this option so it would be fruitful for the community to weigh in an the future of the article and wether it should or shouldnt be deleted.

Delete. the informations is purely speculation from the sources and once the game is revealed, the information would not be useful to be kept.

Delete The article itself says why, no such game has been announced. Hell, Final Fantasy XIV was only announced back in June. Square Enix has not said anything about a Final Fantasy XV. There is nothing but speculation, so nothing worth merging. TJ Spyke 19:30, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Reasons given in above discussions and whatever reason the contents are deemed useful by anyone, they are open to put the sources in other articles as they are open to do even if a merge is not suggested.(and it will face other criteria and editor views but it is not the concern of this AfD) —Preceding signed comment added by MythSearcher^talk 04:24, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
DO NOT WANT —Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.55.48.236 (talk) 07:59, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Do you not want the deletion to happen, or do you not want the article? This is the perfect example of incomplete statement that confuses people of what you really want. —Preceding signed comment added by MythSearcher^talk 02:29, 11 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to
List of Final Fantasy games#Main series for now, leaving whatever scant info there is to the entry in the table found there. No need to delete, since at the very least it will be a useful search term if people are talking about it already. Tarc (talk) 18:33, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply

we aren't a guide for people. just because people talk about it, doesn't mean it exist and deserves mention at all.in the end once the game is mad,e all this speculation will be gone and removed. there is no point having any of this information in any article

I realize this isn't a discussion about a redirect, but since that is what I am proposing that this be turned into, IMO
Wikipedia:R#KEEP part 5 applies. Tarc (talk) 19:47, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply

Delete, no official announcement has been made, this page is composed almost entirely of fan speculation. Keytar Shredder : Talk To Me 23:30, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Tarc, just because one finds it "useful" doesn't mean it automatically should be redirect. that rule i find very vague. still if you think about it carefully, how usefull will this information be for a Wikipedia?. (

I guess s/he is only stating the redirect is useful, not the information. The effect would be if someone typing in FFXV or Final Fantasy XV as a search word, they will be led to the FF main article. That I think is a compromise I am willing to accept, at least to prevent more dispute. —Preceding signed comment added by MythSearcher^talk 01:08, 12 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry i misunderstood. sometimes when people ask for redirects, you get the information moved aswell.

Just a redirect to the article noted above, yes. Tarc (talk) 16:15, 12 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
