Scar runescape
Largely nonsense article about a possibly existent program complete with "shoutouts". -- Omicronpersei8 01:23, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
 * None of it is nonsense, the program exists and is working. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.105.215.213 (talk • contribs).
 * Then where's the link to it? -- Omicronpersei8 16:45, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * At the bottom of this page and in section one on the actual page. --TF0RCE 14:16, 2 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Don't Delete Please do not delete this. SCAR is a known program by many on how to create macro scripts. Ways to make life easier without clicking and/or typing. This isn't nonsense. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by RonTheCon (talk • contribs).
 * Don't Delete SCAR is an active color clicker and there are 2 main communitys for it, each a community not a hellhole of flame/spam. The page discribes some of the main events of runescape cheating very well, and not one bit of it is nonsence at time of writing. Want to know what is nonsence? Some resons to delete it posted here. If you don't like SCAR/Cheaters in runescape, trying to delete the wiki page dosen't even come close to damage to our communitys. - The UnNamed —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.105.215.213 (talk • contribs).
 * Don't Delete I did a massive overhaul of this page. I removed links to the lemonparty shock site, fixed the POV issues, and changed many other things. EDIT: THE LINK TO DOWNLOAD IS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE. Compare the most recent versions at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Scar_runescape&diff=60926496&oldid=60857889.

 * Delete It's a bullshit article, everything wrote wrongly. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 213.64.64.181 (talk • contribs).
 * Don't Delete it is a real program and it still works great, for more than just runescape, you can verify its existance at the download site here: http://dylock.net ]] TALKTOME  |  EMAILME  17:03, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Why did it take this long just to turn up a download link for it? Why was it not included in the first few revisions of the article? Is it supposed to be a big secret? -- Omicronpersei8 17:01, 28 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete --Ixfd64 00:05, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak delete - non-notable, Google gives only 42 hits . ikh (talk) 03:34, 28 June 2006 (UTC) Actually does appear to be borderline notable, as there seems to be quite a bit of activity going on there just looking at the Google results . The problem is however, that all those links lead to either fan websites, forums, or project pages, and not to "reputable sources" (i.e. news websites, places like GameSpot, etc) as required by Verifiability.  If the editors of the article can come up with a few links to reputable sources, I will change my vote.  ikh (talk) 18:30, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Don't Delete SCAR is a very handy program used by many to make repetive tasks easier. It is also an excelent teaching tool for teaching young people pascal programing as they can use their programs to interact with an online game.

 * Comment - this is Flyboy 12345's first edit; given the number of IPs editing this too, there may be sock/meatpuppetry present. ikh (talk) 08:49, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment - We raised a support group to keep this page up on our website, so what do you expect? The users are adding to the article. --TF0RCE 21:20, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * If by "adding to" you mean "putting in more 'shout-outs'"           . And that incomplete list, to my best effort, is all unique IPs. -- Omicronpersei8 (talk) 22:18, 28 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete fancruft. And anyway, it's shite compared to AutoRune. Just zis Guy you know? 11:46, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete even if it exists, its nn Computerjoe 's talk 16:46, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete non-notable cheat program, many unreferenced and unverifiable claims. May want to change the Delphi wikilink not to point to the greek city.  Kuru  talk  18:53, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nominator, woefully unverifiable. Yamaguchi先生 09:31, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete -- Shit on a stick. Handface 21:08, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Don't delete - SCAR is very real and I am a very experienced scripter for it. SCAR is used by thousands. - Bego
 * Dammit, the program is HERE: Available in installer, zip, and rar.--TF0RCE 21:31, 1 July 2006 (UTC)(talk • contribs).
 * Delete or weak merge to RuneScape this program is only notable in that community. --Pboyd04 00:29, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete and protect against re-creation - This will likely be re-created by numerous users, particularly the ones that have discussed in this AfD and their multiple accounts. Iola k ana |T  18:54, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: So far, it has been proven that a few people use this program, but I'm not so sure it qualifies as notable, as it seems to be tied to a mostly underground community. The main problems with the article center not around its fame, but around its poor presentation (which TF0RCE, to his credit, has done a good job trying to fix) and its shameless namedropping of online monikers. I think it would be possible to salvage it in some way, but it would take a lot of work, starting with changing the title to something that doesn't look like it was typed furiously by an impatient ADD child. It should probably just be merged into a more appropriate, comprehensive Runescape article. And when I say "merge", I mean strip out the bare essentials and incorporate them quietly and humbly into the new location. -- Omicronpersei8 (talk) 00:09, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
