Listing at AfD as I couldn't find a speedy that fit, but this is an unreferenced stub on something entirely fictional. At best this could be a list of fictional characters who have the power, there's no grounds for an actual article. JamesG5 (talk) 10:55, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Yes, I saw this too and was considering the best criterion for handling it. (Draftify/PROD/AfD] If the creator of this very new 'article' can show this is a notable Trope (literature), covered in depth by sources, other than a simple 'power' that a number of science fiction characters may have, then maybe there's validity to this. Otherwise, I see no future for it here. Nick Moyes (talk) 12:47, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or drafity Also tagged with for deletion for CSD under numerous reasonings --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 16:34, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Declined, because it didn't fit any of those categories. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 16:36, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
SarekOfVulcan, well there isn't anything to work with. The author also admits it's under creation so either delete or drafty,

At most WP:G1 applies cause that one line doesn't adequately say what the subject is about. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 16:38, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Read G1 again. It's fairly explicit about this not applying. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 16:40, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
And it's not no-context for anyone who's watched Infinity War. It's expandable, but if someone doesn't put in the effort to add explicit sources, I wouldn't shed a tear if it got snapped. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 16:42, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

SarekOfVulcan, well I think it doesn't really say what the subject is. Is the reality warper an object? A person? A technology?

It says "An entity capable of warping the fabric of space–time itself," which is quite meaningless IMHO.

It seems to describe a person or creature of some sort. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 16:43, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Edit: Looks like we (edit conflict) there and I posted the same time as you. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 16:44, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Edit 2: The closest article I think would be applicable would be https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RealityWarper

And as you said it makes no sense to someone outside a particular fandom. So let's agree to disagree. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 16:46, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or draftify. No sources. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:49, 24 August 2018 (UTC).[reply]
