The result was Delete. The issue raised by this article's nomination at AfD was the lack of independent citable sources. At no point in this debate have I seen the opposition saying they have reliable third party sources. Please remember that AfD is not a vote, which means I discounted many of the ILIKEIT votes. The primary argument for deletion was the lack of sources, and the community replied with poor rationales for keeping. ^ demon [omg plz] 15:13, 30 August 2007 (UTC) reply
Wikipedia articles should be compiled from information that is independent of the topic. The information in this list is from the topic itself, namely from the pages of the Naruto manga print cartoon. If no third-party reliable source cared enough to publish this information, why should Wikipedia? Wikipedia:Notability guideline requires significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Independent of the subject excludes works produced by those affiliated with the subject, including the Naruto manga series. The topic fails Wikipedia:Notability. In addition, the article also fails as a list, such as not including unambiguous statements of membership criteria based on definitions made by reputable sources per Criteria for inclusion in lists. An AfD that links to "List of Akatsuki members" and appears relevant to this discussion is Akatsuki leader AfD -- Jreferee ( Talk) 15:09, 25 August 2007 (UTC) reply
