Talk:Team Kegon

Deletion

This article is being considered for deletion because it has only 1 known member and yet an article like the Kinkaku Force that has absolutely no known members or even been seen in the series is fine. Funny. --Sarutobii2 (talk) 19:58, February 11, 2015 (UTC)

Fair point. But the Kinkaku Force article has actual content. This article's only content is its one member. ~SnapperTo 20:00, February 11, 2015 (UTC)

Aside from members, this article has more information than Team Jiraiya and Team Orochimaru. --Sarutobii2 (talk) 20:41, February 11, 2015 (UTC)

You can tag those if you are so inclined. We're still talking about this article, though, and my question remains: what does this article say that Kegon's article does not? ~SnapperTo 20:59, February 11, 2015 (UTC)

This article should stay. It's a valid page that should exist and will probably be expanded in upcoming episodes. --Sajuuk _[Mod] ^{talk | contribs | Channel} 21:13, February 11, 2015 (UTC)

This is a different Kegon. Its expansion possibilities are nill. It will only ever be a team article:

• that appears only in the anime;
• appears for maybe 10 seconds;
• has one named member;
• where that one named member is only named in a random table in a random guide book.

~SnapperTo 21:40, February 11, 2015 (UTC)

It is a team with actual info. we know what the members did. we know the name of the team, what village there from, what gate they were at, what scroll they had etc. the page stays @snapper2:it's valid. Munchvtec (talk) 13:40, February 12, 2015 (UTC)

hoki as a member

if you look at the trivia note on this page it's apparent that hoki was a member of this team. the anime probably thought he was a random character and changed the appearance. he should still be added as a member. Munchvtec (talk) 14:38, February 12, 2015 (UTC)

The name "Kegon" comes only from the anime. If, in the anime, two separate appearances of a character look nothing alike, they can't be the same character. ~SnapperTo 18:37, February 13, 2015 (UTC)

How would they know that a random side character was named? Of course he has a different appearance. If we put two and two together. It is 100% Hoki. Munchvtec (talk) 16:30, October 1, 2015 (UTC)

@Snapper: Nejiri.--Omojuze (talk) 16:54, October 1, 2015 (UTC)

My point was not that he looks different in the manga than in the anime. My point was that the anime's version of Hoki does not look like any of the anime's members of this team. Therefore, they can't be the same people. ~SnapperTo 17:20, October 3, 2015 (UTC)

The anime has a habit of changing the appearances of random characters, just look at this and this. There not a bunch of new participants, its just the anime didn't care enough to depict them the same. No different for Hoki and a member on this team. --Sarutobii2 (talk) 12:02, October 4, 2015 (UTC)

Deletion Part 2

Solved the whole deletion issue. --Sarutobii2 (talk) 09:01, October 4, 2015 (UTC)

Adding trivia points about what the team didn't do isn't new content. What little information the article actually has is only repeating the table found here. ~SnapperTo 15:56, October 4, 2015 (UTC)

Trivia is relevant here, and serves no purpose on the Chūnin Exams article. And anyway, visual information is still information, which cant be found on the Chūnin Exams article. --Sarutobii2 (talk) 16:28, October 4, 2015 (UTC)

The first trivia point is true of many teams, and therefore has no value.

The second trivia point is speculative. Who's to say Hoki and his team decided not to sign the release forms, and therefore didn't participate? Trying to include him is desperate grasping for content.

Their appearance is insignificant. As you point out in the above topic, their design is so unimportant and so generic that the anime can't even be bothered to be consistent about it.

~SnapperTo 17:34, October 4, 2015 (UTC)

Remove the Hoki trivia then. The other trivia point is valid, as there the only known team that's not present in this. And even so, having similar trivia points on multiple articles doesn't make the trivia any less of value to this article.

There appearance is insignificant to studio pierrot, not the wiki. Its quite bizarre that a user would have to go to another website to find out what the members look like if this article were to be deleted. --Sarutobii2 (talk) 18:38, October 4, 2015 (UTC)

But they're not known. This article is taking two unrelated piece of information and mashing them together for the sake of having something to do. What's bizarre is anyone seriously believing this article is supposed to be representative of anything or that anyone anywhere needs to know what this nothing team looks like. ~SnapperTo 19:49, October 4, 2015 (UTC)

The team is unnamed, not unknown. And the wiki has no issue with combining unrelated info, hence Team Shigeri.--Sarutobii2 (talk) 20:24, October 4, 2015 (UTC)

One bad article at a time, please. Evaluate the article on its own merits, not the existence of other bad articles. ~SnapperTo 21:18, October 4, 2015 (UTC)

@snapper: regardless of what you have to say and i'm sure there isn't much more. The facts state that Hoki is indeed a member. They were not aware of a "Hoki" or that a "Team Kegon" existed at that point in time so of course the appearance would differ. Therefore we now also know two members, kegon and Hoki so let it be. Munchvtec (talk) 11:53, October 6, 2015 (UTC)

If this articles existence was an issue, it would of long been deleted. I don't see a problem with it. --Bio havik (talk) 12:06, October 6, 2015 (UTC)

The fact that it was not deleted earlier is not an excuse to keep it now. The anime book lists 17 teams, yet this is the only one with an article. Its existence is unnecessary as it has no information that sets it apart from the other 16 teams, all of which seem to manage being included in the table here. ~SnapperTo 16:50, October 10, 2015 (UTC)

Except it does have information that sets it apart from that article as already mentioned. Its just not to your approval. --Sarutobii2 (talk) 17:40, October 12, 2015 (UTC)

Not to mention this team actually has an image of all three members unlike the other teams. So yeah, they are quite different. Munchvtec (talk) 11:47, October 13, 2015 (UTC)

So it has been decided then? The article stays as it is? If so, the deletion request can be taken down. A Wkia contributor (talk) 10:13, October 16, 2015 (UTC)

I already took it down once but they are stubborn so....i have no clue. Munchvtec (talk) 11:59, October 16, 2015 (UTC)

The article is not up to the wiki's standards:

• The body paragraph repeats another article, as I've mentioned numerous times.
• For the trivia point, the wiki is not in the habit of noting absences or things that are unknown; User:Paladin78 adds such trivia points regularly and they are regularly removed.

What you are left with is a picture that certain users have decided to say is this team. Ignoring the original research for a moment, the picture does not warrant an article as it is impossible to document every single unknown team that appears in the series. ~SnapperTo 15:16, October 16, 2015 (UTC)

This is 100% Team Kegon. Munchvtec (talk) 16:17, October 16, 2015 (UTC)

This discussion isn't moving forward one bit. Personally, I agree with the information being very scarce, but we have other team articles with no real input a well. I don't see why we should make an exeption here. A Wkia contributor (talk) 07:32, October 17, 2015 (UTC)

If you believe another article is not up to the wiki's standards then tag that article for deletion. Do not use its existence to justify keeping other bad articles. ~SnapperTo 16:15, October 17, 2015 (UTC)

This article is to the wiki's approval, as no one else from the wiki is trying to delete it aside from 1 user. Unless there's a policy this article is violating, this discussion is pointless. --Bio havik (talk) 17:07, October 17, 2015 (UTC)

Then how to proceed? This shouldn't go on for so long, should we have a forum discussion which may get the attention of more users? A Wkia contributor (talk) 04:11, October 19, 2015 (UTC)
