Fails GNG and in universe description with no real live relevance. Spartaz ^Humbug! 08:53, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Just redirect it to List of Highschool of the Dead characters, which already has ample coverage of this character. —Xezbeth (talk) 09:12, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Shizuka Marikawa is one of the main characters. So it should have it's own article.

Look at these

Main characters and secondary characters should have their own article. Rudra Tenio Chakraborty (talk) 14:14, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of Highschool of the Dead characters where the character is sufficiently described. This character has no independent notability from the series as with the Death Note characters you listed. I strongly suggest reading Wikipedia:Notability (fictional characters) If you have news articles that critique this particular character, then please present them here. Also there hasn't been any new chapters or spinoff stories for HOTD to suggest that she or any of the other HOTD characters, would become any more notable than being part of that list.

I'm also okay with deletion. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:10, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as foundational copyvio of highschool-of-the-dead.wikia.com: see copyvio report. Beyond that, does not meet notability guidelines for finctional elements. K.e.coffman (talk) 19:53, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and redirect to List of Highschool of the Dead characters. No notability outside of the series; lacks independent real-world coverage. This would have been a straight redirect instead of a delete/redirect if it weren't for the fact that this is mostly an unattributed copy of a Wikia page.

Delete being a main chracter does not make one notable, having coverage outside that production does. Such as citations that mention the cultural impact of the character, not just mentions in plot summaries.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:32, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:A&M/CHARACTER, no notability shown outside of the in-universe info. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 19:04, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm also okay with redirecting the page to List of Highschool of the Dead characters per WP:CHEAP. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 14:27, 15 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and redirect to List of Highschool of the Dead characters#Shizuka Marikawa. Fails WP:GNC nor does it meet any other inclusion critiera for standalone articles. Only one primary source to support the entire article with no third-party sources cited. Do to the copyvio, the article should be purged before it is redirected. —Farix (t | c) 12:47, 17 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
