Secrets of the Alchemist Dar/Unsolved puzzles

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

A listing of the puzzles in the book Secrets of the Alchemist Dar. But Wikipedia is not a game guide. NawlinWiki 20:05, 25 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete as the content is only a listing of the puzzles and nothing more, though the subject might be appropriately covered at Secrets of the Alchemist Dar though I'm concerned about the style of that page myself. FrozenPurpleCube 21:30, 25 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep - Alchemist Dar is not a 'game'. This wiki has provided useful neutral information to hundreds of people. Move it if you must to somewhere more appropriate. WikiOAF 16:07, 26 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep - The information on this sub-page existed in the main article and is clearer by being moved to a sub-page. The main article is about both a notable book and a notable treasure hunt. The sub-page is about the puzzles which are a significant feature of this notable book. --AnotherDoth 20:45, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete Stuff for a fanpage, but not encyclopedic material. Wikipedia's not here to help you solve puzzles. Even should the book be notable, the puzzles and their solutions are not. Phony Saint 00:26, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete nor typically are any other parts of a book notable. DGG 03:01, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Although Wikipedia is collaborative, it is for collaborating on an encyclopedia, not on an armchair treasure hunt.  Additionally, this is a violation of page naming policy, consisting of a subpage in mainspace.  Also delete Secrets of the Alchemist Dar/Things worked out so far for the same reasons.

 * Delete as purely unencyclopedic material. Fails WP:NOT. Sr13 (T|C) ER 06:38, 1 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete looks like original research to me. Where are the reliable secondary sources for this material? JulesH 11:38, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: fails WP:OR, WP:NOT. "A game is a structured or semi-structured activity, usually undertaken for enjoyment and sometimes also used as an educational tool."  This qualifies as one.  The Keep proponents have stated why they think this article is important, but not how it satisfies Wikipedia's requirements for an article.    RGTraynor  14:53, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
