Gray Fox (Metal Gear[edit]
I haven't played Metal Gear myself, but from the first paragraph this appears to be fanfic? If not, it should probably merge somewhere. Radiant! 15:40, Feb 28, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. It's certainly hard to tell what's fanfic, what's official, what's neither. Very badly written article all round. Even if Gray Fox is notable (like you, I've no idea, and the article doesn't help) it'd still be easier to delete this article and start again, rather than try to edit this mess!

- Delete... it ISN'T fan fiction (and Gray Fox is an important character). However, it's not cleanly written for sure, but actually, there is another page that is more clean here: Grey Fox (Metal Gear character) ... but I think we should rename the cleaner article to "Grey Fox (Metal Gear)" instead of having that "character" in there. Also, it probably would be nice to insert the last paragraph of the old article into the new one (regarding his personal abilities). Shadowolf 05:42, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect. -Sean Curtin 03:19, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)
- OK, I just merged a few selected parts of the old article that I deemed most important and unmentioned, into the cleaner one. Shadowolf 03:41, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
