List of Macross Frontier terminology

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

This is an extremely large list of in-universe details relying almost entirely on primary sources. The amount of depth is unnecessary, as plot summaries and episode lists should be able to convey the necessary details without 80kb of supporting info. Wikia is a home for such specific details, and there should be little reason to have to merge anything from it. TTN (talk) 23:30, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Per LISTN, "The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been." Given CSC and and LIST which allows for glossaries, this page aides in comprehension of the subject and whatever issues should be fixed. There is no reason to remove content off Wikipedia simply because the individual terms need to meet N as
Jutsu (Naruto) must and does. This page contains a lot of in-universe information because it has to, the context can only come from its materials and secondary publications which refer to those terms. Deletion is also not clean up. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 22:21, 29 August 2013 (UTC)[reply

So where are the sources about "the grouping or set in general" ? You talk about "secondary publications which refer to those terms". I don't see them. What about
