| *'''Keep:''' I can understand why you might think it seems like an unimportant article, but having just stumbled on it and found it to be quite an interesting read, I think the article is worth saving. The whole point of Misplaced Pages is to inform its readers; I found it a useful article and I'm sure others will, so keep it.

Trivial OR (also unreferenced of course) that only recounts plot details from the film Equilibrium, totally redundant to Gun Fu. Ryan4314 (talk) 10:57, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

- Merge to Gun Fu of which it seems to be a sub-branch. Besides having no secondary reliable sources this is about a fictional martial art which serves as a element in a couple of movies. No need for WP to have so much detail on it since this is supposed to be a general encyclopedia, not a movie fan site or a how-to guide for movie makers.

- Merge into the parent article per Northwestgnome. --Explodicle (T/C) 18:21, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
- Keep: I somewhat agree with Northwestgnome, but I find this interesting, and has been done in enough films and even though this is probably crystal, it will probably be used in many more to come. With enough work, it could be a very good article.--WillC 04:38, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
- Personal interest is not a valid reason to keep an article, and without reliable secondary sources it can never be a good article. --Explodicle (T/C) 14:12, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
