Hey there. First, I should let you know that I'm not an admin or mod, so I can't officially make the call whether a page stays or not. But usually for a show to be qualified, it has to have recognizable guns in it, it has to be released, and it has to have a page on IMDb. ([[Rules,_Standards_and_Principles#Standards |The full rules are here.]]) I can't seem to find an IMDb page for it, but it's clearly a real show, and I don't know how IMDb does foreign shows, so you might be able to argue for an exception. (Unfortunately, I can't actually read Chinese, so I can't read the Chinese wikipedia page.) Just keep in mind, everything has to be in English. If you need help, let me know. Good luck. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] 22:12, 22 November 2011 (CST) | Hey there.

No Halo pages
Sorry, but only professional media is accepted on this site according to the Rules, Standards and Principles. Several attempts to make pages based on Halo properties have been rejected before due to the weapons entirely being fictional. --Ben41 12:25, 22 November 2011 (CST)
New page
Hey there. First, I should let you know that I'm not an admin or mod, so I can't officially make the call whether a page stays or not. But usually for a show to be qualified, it has to have recognizable guns in it, it has to be released, and it has to have a page on IMDb. (The full rules are here.) I can't seem to find an IMDb page for it, but it's clearly a real show, and I don't know how IMDb does foreign shows, so you might be able to argue for an exception. (Unfortunately, I can't actually read Chinese, so I can't read the Chinese wikipedia page.) Just keep in mind, everything has to be in English. If you need help, let me know. Good luck. --Funkychinaman 22:12, 22 November 2011 (CST)

No fan-created media

Also, the media stated in the page must also generally have more than one authentic firearm in it, not an airsoft or other replica weapon (exceptions are made on a case by case basis). --Ben41 04:18, 23 November 2011 (CST)
