Knowledge (XXG):Articles for deletion/Fictional history of Spider-Man (3rd nomination)

2223:. Trotting out "other articles are written the same way" doesn't make the problem go a way, it just points out there is more work to be done in bringing the articles up to standards. And while on that point - using television episodes to try and sell the idea of "plot only articles are acceptable" doesn't fly. Most of the episode articles that have avoided merging or deletion have some degree of secondary source material and/or real world context incorporated into the articles. "Notability" has also been brought up. Yes, Spider-Man is indeed a very notable character. But not all of the stories from the ~1000 issues of various comic book title featuring the character are notable. Nor are the bulk of them relevant for a summary of the character's in story history for a general encyclopedia article. Having an article set up to accommodate inclusion of the unneeded minutia is creating a bad 263:

this has none of) have to say about the cultural and historical significance of a character. This article doesn't cut it in any way shape or form nor can it be made to because it's structure and purpose are so out of line with every policy we have - at it's core, it's just one long plot summary and we don't have article that are simply one long plot summary (it's also a misleading plot summary because it treats the history of Spider-man as a linear narrative and it's nothing of the sort). The MOS (and a dozen other policies) is clear and explicit about this - we don't have articles that are just fictional biographies, we don't write articles that are just to provide descriptive accounts of fictional happenings.I would support a Publication based history of Spider-man but not this. Fails:

1396:- it seems we need to get this area better defined (and properly named) as more articles are getting B-class assessments and pushing on for GA and above. If we can get a proper framework and an idea of what we are aiming for it should be possible to nudge articles in the right direction. I think we are agreed that there probably needs to be a longer piece on Spiderman the character I'm just not convinced keeping this and heavily rewriting it will work without a dedicated editor taking it on as a major project (and I.m not seeing any volunteers ;) ), which is why I think we may need to start from scratch with a better idea of what we want this to end up as. ( 2135:(XXG) rules in a different manner? If it is, why is it different? and is that to the detriment of the Project? Once you've established whether the article fits the general established consensus, then look at the article itself and decide whether it's to be deleted because it doesn't, or is kept. There has to be a clear system to decide such things or the system is deficient. This is possibly an example where the sytem is deficient, or it could be that Knowledge (XXG) Comics has drifted (or indeed perhaps it hasn't but the rest of Knowledge (XXG) has). Testing will establish, and, as others have said, set the template for the future. 1837:

of other articles he's put under and other magazines and much, much more. I also support his idea that this could be used to "put together a draft policy on fictional histories" and Emperor's thought it would "help establish a target for future articles to aim at". And I'm not sure why it's such an imperative that it's deleted right now when clearly the subject has possibilities, can provide such a pointer to the future and is nowhere near as bad as the hundreds of extremely poor articles that clearly violate so many rules and conventions with no chance of anyone improving them.

milestones in a character's development. So, for example, one could talk about the early history of the Fantastic Four's development, citing authors, scholars, historians and journalists, and also make mention of certain original-source milestones, such as marriages or childbirth — milestones that would be conspicuously unencyclopedic not to mention. Obviously there's some subjectivity involved, but birth, death, marriage, and a major costume change, for instance, seem like concrete markers within that.

847:. As articles progress to FA status the plot is hammered down and rewritten in an out-of-universe manner (see the Superman and Batman examples above), splitting off the FCB to a new article is not the solution to the problem and the fact this has been done a few times doesn't make it right (those other articles will also be nominated in time). There is a solid article to be written about the portrayal of the character over the years (as mentioned above), this just isn't it. ( 1200:. High importance article detailing an aspect of one of the most major characters in the medium. Merging in these cases is unattractive because of the ultimate length of the article it would create. Articles like these are forked precisely because a comprehensive one-page overview of all aspects of the subject is simply too long to be both tenable and encyclopedically comprehensive. The history of a character is completely relevant and notable to report on. 31: 2512:, which may be a good example (although references are a bit thin even there). It deals with how the character was first conceived, how it was developed by different authors in different periods, how it was received by the public, etc. Now that is a good starting point, an "out-of-universe" perspective. If something like that can be done here, it would be a good thing. -- 1346:. Either way, we can take this as a great opportunity to define how WikiProject Comics handles fictional history, and give ammunition to those who want to see fictional characters' development within a real-world framework, as opposed to the blow-by-blow minutiae that may be of interest to certain fans but which muddy the waters for general readers. -- 2410:. The article is interesting, useful, and popular, and looks like a lot of work has gone into it, but it's completely out of line with a number of wikipedia policies and the scope of this encyclopedia. For example: We are tertiary source, meaning our articles should draw from secondary sources; this article is all based on primary sources. 1863:'s belligerence, and I don't even know what "biased by bookshelf" means. Secondary sources exist. As for deadline being an essay and not policy: Of course. It's simply a way of asking, "What's the rush?" We're all doing this voluntarily in-between jobs, family and other commitments, after all. Let's all remain civil.-- 1813:: "Knowledge (XXG) treats fiction in an encyclopedic manner, discussing the reception and significance of notable works". Is there any discussion of real world impact of the fictional history of Spider-man? No. Is there any evidence of its significance? No. Are there any secondary sources? No. And on and on. Y 1219:

You have to be able to sustain that argument with reliable secondary sources. None exist on this article. --

2656:

My feeling is we have a rare opportunity to make this article of exemplar of how a fictional character's history, a useful resource for journalists and academics, can be done with secondary sourcing and encyclopedic tone and context. If we can do that once, then we will have a model that we can point

I have not added them because I found about my misconception from this discussion to delete the page and I do not want to

Nominated by the same guy who nominated it last time I see. Spider man has been around for 48 years, appearing in several long running comic books at once, plus countless crossovers into other series, and special issues. That's a lot of history, and its only logical to put it in a separate article.

1844:

I'd also suggest that Spider-Man's fictional history is important (in context) in itself. It's already agreed that Spider-Man as a subject is valid, and the reason for his historic value to comics as being the result of the considerable difference in characterisation to other comics of the day - 'the

I can't see how you can have it both ways - you constantly challenge that there are secondary sources, then when examples are provided claim they are a bias. The secondary sources do exist, the problem is simply they haven't been used in the article. Tenebrae has provided some, I can give you a list

1438:

Consensus can and I believe does exist. None of the keep arguments have been based on policy. Meanwhile, the delete arguments largely have been. Arguments without a basis in policy tend to be very weak, at best. We don't count votes here to ascertain consensus. Nobody is contesting that Spider-man is

545:

There are secondary sources (usually encyclopedia-like books) that have this information as well. I have read them at the bookstore so I know they would support what is in the article, but I do not own them so it is hard to provide them as a useful reference. I will try switching references over from

What more do I need to say beyond the title "fictional History of Spider-man"? We don't write in-universe fictional histories of characters. We write real world perspective encyclopaedia articles that keeps recaps of plot to the bare minimum and concentrate on what third party reliable sources (which

Several editors have mentioned having secondary sources, if this article is allowed to continue and we make a concerted effort the article could be fixed in a few months time. I realize this is a weak argument to keep the article,

to make my point. That said, there's validity in a contextual history of a long-running character's development — in pop culture, particularly, characters are highly reflective of the concerns and fancies of the mainstream world. Superman of the 1930s was a much different character from the Superman

1840:

Without using this as a chance to improve things generally, this will just end up as a minor storm. The problem wouldn't have arisen if Spider-man was a limited or short-run title - the history would have been stuffed onto the one page without any citations and nobody would have turned a hair ever.

1747:

I think if there's anything we can do to help, it's to put together a draft policy on fictional histories, so that when some of our more fannish and less encyclopedically oriented brethren start adding scads of fictional plot, we can simply remove it, point to the policy (assuming it passes muster)

If someone is willing to put in the work to pare it down to maybe 1/3 ot 1/4 of its current length, and at least get a start on writing it from an out-of-universe perspective using reliable secondary sources then it is worth

What I think Rtkat3 and Spidey 104 is trying to say to keep this article alive is the main purpose of this article is encyclopedic on it's own. For some just because it's lacking sources or is an bad article doesn't always mean it should be deleted because it is still high importance, for others if

In response to the whole start to scratch thing. The Fictional character biography of the Spider-Man article is an good start. It is already well sourced and as long as it can be well sourced when it comes to further detail then maybe (if it gets too large or something) the information can be moved

570:

No, while we do make use of primary sources, without secondary sources we soon head off into original research and also we then have to make our judgements on what is important - that's what why we rely on secondary sources to do that job for us. Moreover, using primary sources, it's very difficult

You say it's high importance. How? To the fictional universe, it's very important. Outside of it? None. If you can't find reliable secondary resources supporting the notability of the article's importance, then it has zero importance. Merging is not unattractive because the resulting content still

2492:

That's not a real problem; start small, by introducing them here and there. Then, you can start to trim out stuff which is overly descriptive and reliant on primary sources only. Go back and forth, even. There's no need to rush, and I'm sure just about everyone commenting here would be more than

Lastly, an editor up thread commented that there are enough secondary sources to add add real world context and inflate this article to 10 times its current size. Honestly, that would be nice to see since it would eliminate the chronic problems this article has had. However, I don't hold out hope

2134:

Sorry, but I don't see stasis as the logical conclusion. My argument is - if this style of article exists in a similar form somewhere else, then we should look at whether it is part of the consensus or an aberration. If it's part of the consensus, then is Knowledge (XXG) Comics applying Knowledge

On reflection, what's the difference between having a detailed plot synopsis for superhero characters and individual plot synopses for (picking at random from the house viewing list) Desperate Housewives, House, Supernatural, the Stargate franchise, The Simpsons ... other than that the Spider-Man

We already have policies that guide us on how to write articles. This article violates a large swath of them. Re: "Less encyclopedically oriented brethren" - this article is a monument to non-encyclopedic. 84 sources, and all of them to primary sources. This isn't Wikia. There's already plenty of

for basing everything on primary sources. All of these issues were extant 1.5 years ago. They're still extant now, with no sign that it's ever going to improve. If there were reliable secondary sources, they would have been found by now. We don't keep articles around for 50 years hoping that some

1378:. There are 57,000 articles tagged for cleanup, a 3.5 year backlog. If you can't find reliable secondary sources now, years after publishing of the primary source, it's highly unlikely you're going to find them. If you can't, take it to the . That Wikia doesn't require secondary sources. We do. -- 1298:. All interpretive claims, analyses, or synthetic claims about primary sources must be referenced to a secondary source, rather than original analysis of the primary-source material by Knowledge (XXG) editors." Just because the article lacks secondary sources, that doesn't mean they don't exist. 887:

Thing is that it isn't really an obvious search term but I am not going to loose any sleep over something this side of a merge (so deleting it or turning it into a redirect is fine as long as people don't try and shoehorn the content back into the article). It is also worth mentioning that people

But which bits are notable? Answer - the bits that are the subject of critical commentary and scholarly discussion. Those stories can be discussed in the normal way according to policy. An article which simply exists to relist story details based upon primary sources and in an in-universe manner,

Just because this is a fictional universe it does not make it less notable. If Spider Man were a one off series of comic books and that was that I would say put it all in one article. Spider man is just such a big franchise, a collection of different incarnations. It takes a separate article to

2507:

I really don't see how the current article in the current form can be rescued; it was completely misconceived from the start. The best thing to do, if anybody is really keen, is to start completely from scratch without paying any attention to the current version. The current article goes like

1565:

Did you miss the "I'm fine with a redirect" part, or do you figure the loudest complainer always wins an argument? I'm not advocating waiting years for this to get cleaned up, I'm advocating, let's see... this AFD has 5 days to go, so let's say... yeah, I'm willing to give it 5 days. If cleanup

This logic, I must submit, is completely wrong. "Sufficient cultural importance" deserves a "decent sized 'in universe' article" now? Since when? Even an article on Hamlet sourced exclusively to Shakespeare (without any secondary sources), or an article on Don Quixote sourced exclusively to

The key here, I think, is to severely pare down the minute, issue-by-issue or storyline-by-storyline details. That level of minutiae loses the forest for the trees, as the saying goes. I think ideally you'd have a scholarly history, with proper third-party references, that creates a roadmap of

2320:

Well, part of my problem is that there is no such thing as a "fictional history of Spider-Man". There's a mess of stories in multiple continuities that, even within any one continuity, are outright contradictory. There's nothing to be gained here that isn't more appropriately covered in a

I wasn't attacking you BOZ, and I don't need to be attacked. In all honesty, I intended to remove my comments that you are responding to, as I copied them to my later deleting support below, but forgot to remove them. If you're fine with it, you can remove this comment from me, your comment

the article is that it isn't referenced well enough, like Superman's history page, then that is something that needs to be rectified, though it is not something that would be quite that hard to do, I don't think. In a way, it is more of a content issue. All in all, this article is notable.

1762:

Plus it would help establish a target for future articles to aim at rather than having to reinvent the wheel every time and, even better, we could largely avoid problems like this getting so out-of-hand as we'd have headed things off at the pass long before it got to this level.

Bluntly, they should all be deleted. The article is *not* well sourced, it's simply original research based on rehashing primary sources. A well sourced article makes use of reliable sources independent of the subject. If such sources don't exist - why are we writing about it?

Per our policies and guidelines, we shouldn't have an article containing these details. Most can be trimmed and summarized; those storylines that generate enough critical commentary to be notable can be linked from there and provide greater depth in line with our specs.

As the previous discussions of this have shown, there is clearly a reason to keep this article. I have been working on trimming this article down so it is not as long, but I am only one person with limited time. I agree that the title is incorrect. We should probably
