The Mooninites

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Wholly non-notable content lacking citations to reliable third-party sources. Single editor with eerily similar interest to banned editor also tendentious about ATHF reverting redirect. --EEMIV (talk) 19:25, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The Mooninites article should be redirected. It doesn't have enough information. Careymeans 1:22, 10 April 2010

I do like this show, but why can't this just be part of the aqua teen article. no sense in it being different. PvsKllKsVp (talk) 20:48, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with you. Careymeans 2:46, 10 April 2010

Redirect & Merge to List of Aqua Teen Hunger Force characters --Cybercobra (talk) 00:54, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I oppose a merge. This characters of fleeting importance within the series are sufficiently covered at List_of_Aqua_Teen_Hunger_Force_characters#The_Mooninites. --EEMIV (talk) 15:58, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - I don't see the problem. It's not like much would be merged anyway after removing redundancy. --Cybercobra (talk) 18:27, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
comment wouldn't the whole hoopla in Boston a few years back help push these guys over the edge into independent notability? I'm asking, because I'm really not sure.Umbralcorax (talk) 03:17, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- The incident (2007 Boston bomb scare) was notable, don't think it really made the characters notable. --Cybercobra (talk) 06:10, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect if the content is already covered in the list article. No particular reason to delete this content before redirecting--It's not obvious to me that the redirect was tried and reverted before sending this here. Jclemens (talk) 20:22, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Related AfD here; Mooninites has been a long-standing redirect to replace similar cruft. Same pattern of obnoxious restoration. (One of the two editors of this more recent iteration was just blocked as a a longtime sockmaster.) So, no, this article hasn't had a lot of "let's try a redirect first" but the topic has. --EEMIV (talk) 20:47, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect per above. I redirected this article shortly after creation but its author must have undone that. Them From Space 20:57, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
