131:- I would say to keep it and turn the stuff that would be from a game guide into actual encyclopedic information. It really doesn't look that much like a game guide to me. It doesn't seem bad to keep and article for the main weapons of a well selling series of games (like the Zelda article). Or the info could just be merged to the specific character or game articles. 311:
This is a huge amount of cruft. Look, I'm a MM fan, too, but can't we just put a link to MMHQ or something at the bottom of the Mega Man page instead of having a gigantic article about ultra-specific obscure game storyline information? Also, I'm confused at some of the arguments here. Nemu, are you

324:- No, I'm saying to just rewrite or remove the game guide type of info. I really think there should be some sort of limit to the whole verifiability and notability guidelines, or any sort of fictional information beyond the main work and absolute main character should all be deleted. 176:. Way too large to merge with the main article. There are dozens of Mega Man articles- killing this article would cause all the info to spread out over many many articles. This nom doesn't make any sense... Also, this article is currently a 256:
The parts of the article like the MMBN and ZX sections can be taken as game guides, but the info can easily be removed or rewritten. It doesn't seem like a good reason to delete the article.

As for having less citations than normal, this is because the information for the weapons is mostly contained in the japanese sourcebooks and in-game dialogue/captions.
