Merger[edit]

I propose to merge all four anime into one article under the heading of Burn Up which will involve redirecting all of the pages including this one, "Burn Up!" to Burn Up and combining their content. My reason for this is that all four are small enough to qualify for them to be merged. - Squilibob 10:10, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Base article is just a stub that doesn't merit being separated from the other Burn Up! articles. The other articles are mostly a character lists with a little bit of plot information that can be easily incorporated into the base article. --TheFarix (Talk) 02:28, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose[edit]

Do the Macross series need to be grouped together? These are all distinct articles in the same way that all the Macross series are. If you merge these, the macross ones deserve the same treatment - and i doubt people will agree to them. Note also that these series are distinct. However, save Burn up Excess, and Burn up W, i have yet to get round to seeing them. Also, i am not the best person at wiking. i'd be happy to expand the articles if someone else would do cleanup.

I agree, they are 3 different series and a merger seems completely inappropriate.
I would argue that the original Burn Up should be its own article, but the other three "sequels" should be merged, as they form one continuity that has almost nothing to do with the original except for having busty female cops. Snarfies 02:27, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Merging it doesn't seem to be appropriate since if it gets merged, then merging all of the other series that's here on this site should be done. Expanding the base article would be better. (koolboy)
These are three different series. If I search for Burn Up W, I want to find Burn Up W. I don't want to find a combined article, then have to search through it for what I really wanted. It would make sense to create a central Burn Up! article that links to the three series. Combining them would make them more complicated and harder to understand. Come to think of it, maybe the My Goddess series should be split up. MrSqueezles August 31, 2006

If the merged article became too large then we could just split it again, as it stands there isn't a lot of information and it would be better for a reader to see all that small scatterred information in one article rather than several small stub-like articles. --Squilibob 00:52, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'll just expand them instead. I Netflixed the whole series. I'm getting help, too! --MrSqueezles 16:49, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well in that case a merger isn't needed. Tags removed --Squilibob 06:36, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sonoda?[edit]

"Burn up! is an 50 minute OAV based on a Manga by Kenichi Sonoda released in 1991." There is no mention of it here... Kenichi Sonoda

In 1991 he was doing the manga Gunsmith Cats. I'm taking out the reference until something concrete is found, beginning with the actual manga's name. Elmer92413 16:53, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion[edit]

Burn Up! and the related anime Burn-Up W, Burn-Up Excess, Burn-Up Scramble, are legitimate anime in as much as any of the anime listed in Wikipedia and warrant their own articles. The series is also a good example of the late 80s and early 90s animation and rates 6.18 on My Anime List. Regarding references, this series suffers from the same problem as much of the work produced during this time for which the online information never existed or has has been lost through the process of lack of continuity, the original website Official site (Japanese) has long since disappeared and is not even listed in Archive.org. Also allowing 1 week for notice of deletion for articles such as this one which have been in existence since 2005 seems a little ruthless. I do not agree that it fails WP:GNG, or at least provide proper justification why it does. Ozflashman (talk) 06:25, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
