This fictional weapon does not establish notability independent of Zoids through the inclusion of real world information from reliable, third party sources. Most of the information is made up of original research, trivial model details, and unnecessary plot details. There is no current assertion for future improvement of the article, and this is too trivial to require any separate coverage. TTN (talk) 20:40, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merge into a list of Zoids. A whole article for each Zoid is a bit much, but we should keep at least the more notable ones for people who come to wikipedia looking to learn, as WP is probably an early stop for someone unfamiliar with the show. Tealwisp (talk) 21:53, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

• Merge per Tealwisp. A few important ones would help introduce people to the general idea of the show.The Locke (talk) 00:16, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge It might not warrant a separate article, but the nominator does not indicate why it doesn't deserve coverage at all. They did not look for references prior to deletion and did not consider the usual treatment of fictional characters. - Mgm|^(talk) 09:38, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment whether this is merged or deleted, or even kept, this should Redirect to sniper since it is the most likely subject. 76.66.195.159 (talk) 10:13, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• 'Discuss how to merge at the appropriate place,which is not here--I don't think anyone is seriously defending it as an article As far as merged content goes, none of the objection in the nomination are even relevant to possible unsuitability for merged content, since primary sources are acceptable --and even preferred--for straight description.
