This does not establish

plot details better suited to Wikia. There is no current assertion for future improvement of the article, so extended coverage is unnecessary. TTN (talk) 09:27, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply

Keep Seems fairly well sourced; and as to future expansion, the comics are ongoing, so new character will be listed as time goes on. Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 10:08, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Those are all
real world information to write an article from an encyclopedic standpoint. Things like lists of related characters are overly in-depth, so they are better suited to Wikia. TTN (talk) 10:14, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply

Keep The nomination is itself a cookie-cutter imitation. We have numerous articles about this concept including
alternatives to deletion. Warden (talk) 10:27, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply

Merge to Features of the Marvel Universe. Could be described quite easily there, and it won't have trouble establishing notability. As it stands, all the sources are primary and do nothing toward establishing notability. Nobody disputes that it's a common plot device in fiction, but this particular incarnation of it is not notable. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 12:10, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per above or merge to S.H.I.E.L.D. BOZ (talk) 16:35, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I agree with Warden. This concept is not only used in comic books but also in movies and television. Sources, other than primary, are available. --Crazy runner (talk) 10:48, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
