Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was delete

This is unencyclopedic and conjectural. I might even call it fancruft or original research. Delete it, and maybe mention in one sentence in Metroid that it was influenced by the Alien series. Andre (talk) 00:31, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete - agreed. I was last to edit and that was a re-direct correction. Hobie 00:38, 2004 Sep 27 (UTC)
  • Delete this page, but merge the "Metroid and Alien" comparison back into Metroid. The Metroid-Alien link is valid anecdotal material, though indeed it should be incorporated into the descriptions of the games (or placed in a "trivia" section) instead of being presented as if it constitutes a stand-alone subject.

  • Delete. Fancruft. --Improv 00:56, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge the "Metroid-Alien link" bit and redirect to Metroid. -- [[User:Bobdoe|BobDoe]] 01:08, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
    • Why would you redirect something like this? Nobody's going to search for "Metroid Comparisons." Andre (talk) 01:10, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
      • To keep in terms with the GFDL is the only reason I'm voting that way. If someone want to add the edit history of Metroid Comparisons to Metroid, then delete away. -- [[User:Bobdoe|BobDoe]] 02:08, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
        • There's no need to do that. The text was originally in Metroid and was later moved to this page. Fredrik | talk 08:15, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: subtrivial fancruft. Wile E. Heresiarch 05:12, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Unencyclopedic. Gwalla | Talk 18:58, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Even if it was encyclopedic, I see no reason for something so specific to be in its own article. Doozer 01:03, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete The page was first created by 24.119.220.58. I thought they had a whole list of insightful and interesting metroid comparisions, and was just a work in progress, so I moved the metroid and alien section from metroid to here, on the though that this article would fill up. However it seems that there isn't much info on the topic, so it's kinda pointless. ____Ebelular 16:19, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete - original research. -- Cyrius| 23:36, 3 Oct 2004 (UTC)
