I made an article for Pokémon Apokélypse that you deleted. I'm not going to recreate it and start a fight with you, but I would like to know your reasoning. Bulbapedia has lots of articles about unofficial fandom. What makes this one bad? Even Wikipedia has an article for this.

:There wasn't enough information in your article to actually keep it... something like this would go in an article primarily about things in the fandom. Try writing something in your user space first.  But just because something is on Wikipedia, that doesn't mean we have to have it too. -[[User:Sketch|Sketch]] 02:07, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

==Pop-culture origins==
I think "explicitly stated" is a bit much to ask for, for origins based on pop-culture. I don't recall any Pokémon (except the Poliwag family) ever having their origins "explicitly stated", and sometimes a pop-culture reference is just plain obvious (see {{p|Wobbuffet}}). I agree we should be extremely cautious when adding origins like that, but surely adding them isn't ruled out altogether? --[[User:AndyPKMN|Andy<sup>P</sup><sub>K</sub><sup>M</sup><sub>N</sub>]] 02:23, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
