Like the related article Cosmic entity (DC Comics), this article consists entirely of WP:OR and does not prove that the topic meets WP:GNG. The lone source ia a Polygon op-ed that speaks of a "cosmic universe" in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but not of cosmic entities. The associated list, which is also included in this AfD, seems to be more coherent than its DC counterpart, but is based solely on primary sources. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 05:07, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. OR that might be hard pressed to sell even at fan wiki. Marvelpedia calls them cosmic beings, I think: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Glossary:Cosmic_Beings and that's where they belong, given failure at WP:GNG. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 11:23, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I'm a huge fan of most of the characters on the list, but there's very little tying them together outside of "they're powerful and live in space." Argento Surfer (talk) 12:04, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Both - Unsourced outside of primary books, poorly defined, and huge amounts of WP:OR. The list and article don't even seem to agree on what a "Cosmic entity" is in Marvel comics, which just demonstrates how little of this information is actually based on any kind of reliable sources.

Keep List of cosmic entities in Marvel Comics. This is a perfectly valid list article, aids in navigation, links to related articles. WP:LISTPURP. Category:Marvel Comics cosmic entities exist. Anything that shouldn't be on the list or that doesn't have an article linked to, can be removed through normal editing procedures. Dream Focus 18:12, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
https://collider.com/thor-love-and-thunder-trailer-marvel-cosmic-entities-explained/ https://www.cbr.com/marvel-strongest-cosmic-entities/ calls them "cosmic entities" and list some of them. Dream Focus 03:01, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete both In this case, the articles are fancruft that fail WP:GNG or WP:LISTN. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 21:16, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete both neither article has reliable independent sources to verify the WP:NOTABILITY of each topic. They may even be WP:OR as no reliable sources have established this as a concept, indicating that it was WP:SYNTHesized by the editors who made these articles.

Delete per WP:OR and WP:LISTN. Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 16:07, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete both Lack of reliable secondary SIGCOV. The main article fails WP:GNG, the list fails WP:LISTN. -- ferret (talk) 19:24, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
