This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record.
The result of the debate was ambiguous.

I count 4 clear "deletes", 2 clear "keeps" (one from a user who created an account the day this VfD opened) and 3 "redirects" (none of which really argued for an actual merge). When investigating the article myself, I found that there was an unresolved copyright violation still in the history. As such, I am going to call this one as a delete (which is pending because of a block-compress error) with a recommendation that it be recreated after deletion as a redirect.

Green Ranger

[edit]

Ok, we've extensively discussed pokemon professors... now how do you feel about lesser-known enemies of the power rangers? Radiant! 15:36, Feb 28, 2005 (UTC)

  • Merge or keep assuming Antaeus Feldspar tells us it's not fanfic. Delete if fanfic. Kappa 16:44, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Weak keep, but cleanup. I don't know much about Power Rangers, but I vaguely remember this was a big, important story arc at the time. Miss Pippa 17:58, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • I need to check with my PR-fan friends, but I suspect this is a big ol' Delete -- the real Green Ranger would be just as important as any of the other lead characters of the series -- he wasn't a "lesser-known" enemy; he was a major enemy who then became the sixth member of the team. However, a Google search on "Rudy Gomez" and "Green Ranger" together gets zippo hits, so I suspect this is fanfic. -- Antaeus Feldspar 20:41, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC) Update: All my PR-fan friends agree this is completely non-canon; one phrases it as "b---s--- on an insane degree." But as Aranel points out, a redirect to Power Rangers is a more useful fate than deletion, so that's what I'm changing my vote to. -- Antaeus Feldspar 03:14, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Power Rangers (unless you can find something better). Before the edit that got it listed here, this redirected to Power Rangers. Actually, I seem to have established that redirect, and I still think that a redirect is a better use of our time than a deletion. -Aranel ("Sarah") 02:35, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Its Re-Directing Time! we can morph it back into its power ranger's parent article, somewhere. Tygar 08:37, Mar 1, 2005 (UTC)
  • The Green Ranger had 7 episodes as an enemy (where he was under control of the bad guy), if I remember correctly from my childhood days. He became a good guy when the mind control had been worn off somehow, and became a regular on the show afterwards (so I think the article is fairly significant... if not keep, then redirect). I don't remember how he was under control though (might have to do with the coins the article mentioned, but I'm not sure). The Dragonzord and Dragon-dagger flute I remember vividly though. The character's name however, was not Rudy Gomez... it was Tommy. I don't know his last name though. This might be a cross between a fanfic and the actual info of the character. For sure though- this article is not complete in information, so it could also be regarded as stubbed (if this gets moved or so). Shadowolf 10:26, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Wikipedia already has "Category:Green Rangers" which lists various incarnations of the Green Ranger. User:Dimadick
  • Delete - Actually knowing a little bit about Power Rangers, I can tell you that the first Green Ranger, and the one that this article is about, is Thomas Oliver and not Rudy Gomez. This leads me to believe that it is fanfiction. Besides, Tommy being the Green Ranger is easily explained in his article... kelvSYC 16:03, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • Oh, so there's already an article on the Green Ranger, hehe. Then this one is pretty unnecessary. One of the problems is probably that no one really knows their characters full names, so it makes the search difficult... but I just noticed they are listed in the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers page anyway. So I guess delete to this one is a-ok afterall. Shadowolf 03:17, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete and redirect. -Sean Curtin 03:20, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)
