Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bannable Offenses of Something Awful Forums

Bannable Offenses of Something Awful Forums, along with Culture of Something Awful Forums, was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was to delete both.

More detail than needed. Merge back into original article. Bad capitalization. RickK 00:17, Nov 13, 2004 (UTC)

Delete. It's just a forum, and doesn't deserve 20 or so articles about it, anyway. Oven Fresh 00:23, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, not move. The SA forum isn't noteworthy enough to justify this level of details. Wyllium 00:34, 2004 Nov 13 (UTC)
 * Delete, permanently. Don't even move back.  See Talk: Something Awful Forums-- Etaonish  01:02, Nov 13, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, delete, delete. -Sean Curtin 01:44, Nov 13, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, Something Awful doesn't deserve this sort of attention. Lord Bob 02:15, Nov 13, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete: I voted against the SA Forums article on VfD.  Most voters did.  I said, and many others did as well, that it was just a hack magnet.  Guess what?  Well, delete this junk.  Not notable, not worthy of comment. Geogre 02:52, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'm not convinced the forum itself is notable enough to deserve an article, but I'm certain that this isn't. I see a lot of message boards. This is not particularly unique material. Lots of forums have banning policies (mine is more fun to read). -[[User:Aranel|Aranel ("Sarah")]] 02:57, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. This forum looks the same as thousands of others on the net, I doubt that it merits a single article let alone dozens.
 * Delete. Information can and should be merged. [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 03:18, Nov 13, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. clara 03:19, Nov 13, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not encyclopedic. Wikipedia is not a place to post forum FAQs. Do not merge.   &mdash; Gwalla | Talk 03:19, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete both, forum cruft. Gazpacho 03:48, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * This article was Too Long, and I therefore Didn't Read it. Delete. DS 04:56, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Oh, and incidentally the Culture article is copied from various user-contributed articles in the SAclopedia. DS 05:00, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Obvious merge, they would make the main article better. &mdash; siro  &chi;  o  09:16, Nov 13, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete - an article too far. Deb 14:00, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete both. Do not merge. jni 15:37, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete both as above. Fire Star 05:09, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Redirect. silsor 01:07, Nov 17, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete Just like the others &mdash;ExplorerCDT 01:56, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete with extreme prejudice. Wankery. &#8212;No-One Jones (m) 02:03, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Transwiki to Wikibooks. [[User:Neutrality|Neutrality (hopefully!)]] 02:05, Nov 17, 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge. Seems relevant to main topic, not big enough to merit own article.  --L33tminion | (talk) 05:54, Nov 17, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. [[User:GRider|GRider\talk]] 01:24, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Don't merge. Draw line in sand. Mattley 11:40, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC)
