Creature from fictional universe. Like having an entry for Xann, protagonist of 1980s video game Terminus, or Dumbledore, wizard from Harry Potter. Equinox ◑ 21:12, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
- We do have Charizard and Pikachu, though, and cited. I think it would be better to move it to RFV, because the common practice is attesting or deleting senses defined as fictional characters. --Daniel 22:47, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, it's an issue for RFV.—msh210℠ (talk) 07:10, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- It's common practice, but perhaps erroneously. Something which is not dictionary material can still be attested. If moved to RFV, and if it passes, It might then get tagged with rfd again. But sure, rfv. Mglovesfun (talk) 14:28, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- The attestation process exists to check whether an entry is dictionary material, doesn't it? --Daniel 14:30, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- No. If that were true, entries that pass RFV wouldn't then later fail RFD. Mglovesfun (talk) 18:47, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- Wait, what? Why would entries that pass RFV be put to RFD in the first place? DAVilla 15:07, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

- Because showing that something exists doesn't make it dictionary material. I could create my name is John, rfv it, when it obviously passes for clear widespread use, the entry should be 'immune' to rfd (hence exist forever with no possibility of deletion).

- Sigh. Okay. Moving to RFV. Equinox ◑ 19:59, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
