I like the Discworld novels, I really do, but this is just original research plot summary with no reliable third party source in sight, and much too detailed to merge anywhere. Relevant policies and guidelines include WP:V, WP:NOR and WP:N.  Sandstein  21:03, 28 December 2008 (UTC) 
 * Terry Pratchett is my religion. I'm seriously getting a Terry Pratchett tattoo. No lie. That said, this is mostly OR, and it's not notable enough outside the context of the series for its own article. So, delete it.  Graymornings (talk) 22:48, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

 * While I agree that this article is in pretty poor shape at the moment, it's not completely beyond hope, it could be salvaged by an editor with detailed knowledge and time to dig out the references, so... Keep, put on the appropriate warnings and wait for re-editing 82.32.73.70 (talk) 01:00, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak merge to Going Postal. If the organization had been featured in more than a single novel, I'd suggest keeping the article, but honestly there's nothing here that is worth saying that couldn't be said in the main article for the book. JulesH (talk) 09:44, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete- I too am a great fan of Mr. Pratchett's novels, but this article is nothing but unsourced plot summary about a minor element of a fictional world. Fancruft in other words. Reyk  YO!  03:18, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Trim unsourced/merge/redirect into Going Postal. -- brew crewer  (yada, yada) 04:57, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Not peripheral background, the major plot element. The justifies an article--as for the merge, that makes sense also, but should be discussed later. DGG (talk) 06:02, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Consists solely of plot with no reliable secondary sources.  —   pd_THOR  undefined | 19:37, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
