Pandaren

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Does not establish enough notability outside game universe. This article is also literally plagiarized from WoWwiki. (Copyright is not a problem here, though - WowWiki uses GFDL.) SYSS Mouse 16:33, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect/Merge to List of Warcraft humanoid races. The April Fool's jokes might make for some includable content, but I'm not sure it merits its own article. FrozenPurpleCube 18:18, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per lack of notability for this in game race.  I also think the List of races is game guide content, just like list of units in, regardless of the popularity of the game. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Corpx (talk • contribs)
 * Please feel to articulate how. Because I don't see anything in the page that is related to playing the game itself.  FrozenPurpleCube 01:01, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * In-depth description of a character in the fictional universe, lacking any kind of coverage from real world sources, is game guide content Corpx 06:08, 4 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Comment: The editor that wrote the WoWWiki page and the person that wrote this page are one and the same. There's no plagiarism issue, it's release of the writing to both. --Raijinili 05:48, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Retraction: I misremembered. It was lifted, but the original writer approved. See Talk:Pandaren. --Raijinili 05:50, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. Strictly speaking, since a wiki is written by many people, a single editor cannot give such permission. SYSS Mouse 17:33, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
 * You can give approval for something someone's already allowed to do. --Raijinili 06:05, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, upon thinking, I think both of us ae wrong. By editing there, the writers indirectly gives permission for others to use elsewhere, since Wowwiki uses GFDL. SYSS Mouse 16:04, 4 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete as lack of independent sources indicates this fails WP:NOTABILITY.--Gavin Collins 09:58, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
