The result was MERGE into Classes in World of Warcraft. The raw totals are 9 Delete, 2 Keep, 4 Merge. Merge preserves the material, so collapse that into 9 Delete the material, 6 Keep the material in some form. That alone is not enough of a statistical edge to make a deletion a no-brainer. The argumentation is about equal. Therefore, no consensus to delete, defaults in this case to merge, since most of the Keep-the-material comments were to merg. Most of the merge votes were to merge the material. A couple of the Merge votes were to merge the material into the separate articles for each class, but these seem not to exist, so I merged into Classes in World of Warcraft.

 * Keep - Not a guide, doesnt tell the player how to play, just lists skills. Has the nominator actually read this, its not guiding anything, this is as basic as telling someone the rook moves vertically and horizontally. -- zero faults   ' '' 10:26, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Disarm- this skill disarm the target, greatly reducing the targets melee attack damage and producing aggro., your telling me that doesn't read like a game guide?-- Andeh 11:01, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
 * No, it reads like a game mechanics description - a game guide differs from this, in that it would detail the use of game mechanics, normally introducing POV. Seems like we need a formal description of a game guide to me. LinaMishima 02:44, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Saying a Rook moves horizontally and diagonally is not a game guide, hence stating disarm does XYZ is not a game guide. Stating a good time to disarm is when and it can be used in conjunction with skill Z is a gameguide. -- zero faults   ' '' 15:36, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, blatant game guide/fancruft.-- Andeh 11:01, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per above --Peephole 11:44, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Oh no, only excerpts from it. That way it's still fair use. :) GarrettTalk 23:53, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Merge details into the associated WoW class articles LinaMishima 02:45, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge The skill lists could easily be merged into the associated WoW class articles. Hyde_v 20:28, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge per above &rArr;    SWAT Jester    Ready    Aim    Fire!  03:26, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
 * keep or merge it is to basic to read as a game guide and if you guys think it reads too much like a game guide, why doesnt someone edit it so it doesn't. However i do agree about merge it into the respective class pages. --Comicdude 12:37, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per Zer0faults --Pinkkeith 23:57, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wholly indistinguishable from a manual excerpt, how-to file, or GameFAQs page. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 19:43, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
