White Base merge

I think White Base should be merged with the general article about MS Gundam. Though the White Base article has some merits and relevant analyses, thanks to its "Development" section, I don't think the vehicle itself has demonstrated notability outside of affilitated sources, as it only gets trivial or inconsequential mentions (such as being featured in an obscure listing). The details on the WB creation are interesting, but generally fit the overall themes of mecha design in MS Gundam, and of the conflict between Tomino and sponsors. All these comments (which are not too long) should be included here because they'd give more substance to Mobile_Suit_Gundam#Original concept and development, which would help the article reach GA status. The rest of the WB article being plot summary, it could easily be used to flesh out Mobile_Suit_Gundam#Plot if necessary. As it is, I don't see how keeping the details on WB separate would benefit anything.Folken de Fanel (talk) 16:17, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

Unconvinced, and don't think it is a good idea, generally speaking, I am against this idea, but I don't really care if you do a good merge and write up that can actually get the article to GA status. —Preceding signed comment added by MythSearcher^talk 19:14, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

No formal opposition, I'm performing the merge. I'll let those who deem it necessary to deal with anything related to plot.Folken de Fanel (talk) 19:54, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

The so called merge was actually a deletion with no consensus. You who proposed the merge did not include any of that article's reliable sources. I'm reverting. —Preceding signed comment added by MythSearcher^talk 15:23, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

That is perfectly inaccurate as I did merge content to the article. I merged everything that I considered valuable, but any user remains free to move as much content as they think is necessary. There is neither a valid reason, nor consensus, to restore the article itself. Move more content if you want, but do not touch the redirect.Folken de Fanel (talk) 19:33, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

You so called consensus is actually inaccurate. I did give opposition and agreed only conditionally. Thus you have no consensus if you did not meet the condition I gave. —Preceding signed comment added by MythSearcher^talk 08:20, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=White_Base&action=history is still accessible, from then on there's nothing more than I can say other than you do not have neither consensus nor reason to undo the merge.Folken de Fanel (talk) 10:44, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

1979 Manga

The infobox lists a Manga written between 1979-1980, but I can't find any proof this existed. Could someone add a citation to a source proving that it is real if it is? Otherwise, it should be removed. AnyGuy (talk) 06:37, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

Template:Ping Found it in Amazon. Then again, this article sure lacks sources.Tintor2 (talk) 15:10, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

Template:Ping Do you have the Amazon item as proof? I also feel like there has to be better proof of its existence than a purported amazon item (which may be fake). AnyGuy (talk) 17:19, 4 June 2020 (UTC)

Template:Ping It's already on the article. Did you see my edit? Then again, while Amazon is considered a reliable source in the guidelines, it is also preferred to use primary sources to cite material.Tintor2 (talk) 18:46, 4 June 2020 (UTC)

Template:Ping No I didn't, sorry. Template:Ping However, that wasn't the manga I was talking about; the one I was referring to was the one mentioned in the infobox that supposedly lasted from 1979-1980.
