Talk:Netherlands

Why EXACTLY is this page a candidate for "speedy deletion"? InoueOrihime 23:33, December 5, 2009 (UTC)
 * For the same reason we don't have a page on Australia: one sketch and some fragmentary notes do not justify a character page.  The Spie 00:25, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm afraid I disagree, since Holland has appared in AT LEAST two strips aside of that sketch even if it's in silhouette form, not to mention he has been given notes from Himaruya himself. I think that's enough to have a mention in the wiki and doesn't justify you single-handedly deciding that the whole article should be deleted. InoueOrihime 01:31, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * Bulgaria has appeared, in full, in a strip and in the anime. He doesn't have an article.  Thailand has rather substantial notes on him from Himaruya himself, as well as detailed sketches.  He doesn't have an article.  Saxony and Bavaria have appeared in full in group shots in a strip.  They don't have articles.  Netherlands already has a mention in the wiki, on the main character list page.  One appearance in a group shot, an appearance in which he's a side character (Japan's the main character of that sketch), and some fragmentary notes is not enough to justify a page.  When he gets into a strip, or when Himaruya releases more detailed notes on him, then he'll be more deserving, but not now.  Where was the push for a Netherlands article before today?  We still have the same amount of info about him that we had two days ago.  Oh, yeah, Himaruya drew him without blackening.  In other words, nothing's changed about Netherlands' status other than the fact that we now have a face, hair color, and eye color.  And I haven't deleted the article.  I've only recommended it for deletion.  It's up to Lil to decide on deletion.  My recommendation is based on criteria that have been used for other minor characters here, and is certainly justified.

 * Except for how he has a face, he has notes AND he has back-up that can be considered enough. Also, Bulgaria has appared in the strops and anime... but he hasn't gotten any notes or profiles, which Holland does. The notes on Thailand aren't that detailed either; only scribbles in his sketch, not separated from them. Saxony and Bavaria... *where* are the notes aside of their cameos, which Holland DOES have? Belgium has a page despite only having cameos and notes, so I do not see why Holland should not have his own one. Therefore, I think speedy deletion is unnecessary and that the article should stay here. InoueOrihime 02:20, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, I don't think he has enough back-up. Netherlands doesn't have a profile, just notes.  Belgium did have a profile, and has solo artwork (which Netherlands does not).  Thailand has more notes than Netherlands does; where they were located was irrelevant.  Here's my point:  if Netherlands gets an article, then Australia, Bulgaria, and Thailand should as well, considering the amount and level of material available for them.  I don't believe any of the four deserve their own article at this point.  If you believe so strongly about Netherlands deserving an article, how about writing up ones for the other three?

 * Oh, yeah, if you don't accept the examples I gave, then how about this one? Shinatty-chan, Hanatamago, and Kumaguro have far more material than Netherlands, so why don't they have their own pages?  The Spie 03:13, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

Kumaguro? XD
 * Kumajiro, obviously. I have a lot on my mind right now, okay?  The Spie 16:13, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

uhh, this should really be netherlands, because formally holland is two of his provinces. i don't know, maybe i'm just nitpicking here. 84.195.191.181 00:53, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
