To quote, "Rothana Heavy Engineering is a fictional corporation from the Star Wars saga, created in the spin-off material from Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones." 119 googles. The question begs to be asked; Is Star Wars minutiae more notable than granular details out of the fictional universe of Pokemon or Digimon? Does this type of content really belong on Wikipedia? Where exactly does it belong and why? --GRider\talk 00:44, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • merge or keep, of course this kind of content belongs in wikipedia, as with Pokemon, Digimon etc. Where exactly it belongs is not a question for Vfd. Kappa 01:45, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, and stop with the excessive Star Wars material deletion. -- Riffsyphon1024 02:09, Mar 10, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Corporations in Star Wars are important. People care much more about Star Wars than they do about Pokémon. Besides, we've kept articles about Star Wars that are far less notable. We've kept Star Wars articles that've gotten only 3 hits. If anything, we should be consistent.-LtNOWIS 02:36, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • 3 google hits? You've got to be kidding. Delete the holy bejeezus out of those too then. -R. fiend 04:07, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Spin off material? Have we sunk so low? -R. fiend 04:07, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep but with reservations. Article needs cleanup and expansion. Megan1967 07:23, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Spin off material fictional corporation? We delete real companies, we delete real professors, but we keep fictional corporations from spin off materials? This is not encyclopedic outside of anything called 'Star Wars Encyclopedia'. Average Earthman 10:15, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Will someone knowledgeable about Star Wars please be bold and merge this and all related VfD'ed articles for which consensus indicates merging? Radiant! 11:11, Mar 10, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. --Ryan! | Talk 18:56, Mar 10, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, and please feel free to VfD more lucascruft (I do like the first Star Wars movie, though). Wyss 01:37, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. I'm a Star Wars fan, and I don't care. I used to know all of the major "companies"—this is not one of them, and even if it were, I wouldn't write an article on it. -Aranel ("Sarah") 03:04, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • Whoever posted that this was spinoff material already makes it look bad. It's simply a subsidary of Kuat Drive Yards, the largest and most popular company in Star Wars. Anyway, I'm marking this for Transwiki to Star Wars Wiki. -- Riffsyphon1024 03:28, Mar 11, 2005 (UTC)
      • In that case, it would be okay to merge a brief mention into an article on Kuat Drive Yards, which I almost used as an example of perhaps the only Star Wars company deserving of an article. -Aranel ("Sarah") 23:45, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Transwiki it. This doesn't belong in wikipedia. DaveTheRed 04:17, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

This Article has been Transwikied to Star Wars Wiki - Rothana Heavy Engineering. -- Riffsyphon1024 22:38, Mar 13, 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep. —Markaci 2005-03-14 T 09:47 Z
  • Merge and redirect - in fact I am going to merge this now under "Subsidiaries" in the Kuat Drive Yards article myself. This should keep it in context and if this becomes a keep then we can just delete that bit out of Kuat Drive Yards. Copying content to StarWars wiki is irrelevent to Wikipedia as it is outside Wikimedia however feel free to do so -- Lochaber 19:05, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
