Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shadow the Hedgehog (video game features)


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.  

The result of the debate was Delete. I count opinions as roughly 10 delete, 3 merge, and 3 keep/rename. I took a quick look at Shadow the Hedgehog (video game), and it looks like a least some of this material is already there, and the rest looks like trivia that's not worth the effort to merge. --RoySmith 13:31, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

Shadow the Hedgehog (video game features)
Pure how-to fork. This is a fork of Shadow the Hedgehog (video game), and is entirely overspecific how-to advice and weapon/items lists. This is definitely GameFAQs materal, not Wikipedia material. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 00:31, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Pure GameFAQS material. --Apostrophe 00:44, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Rename. "Shadow the Hedgehog video game features." Bensaccount 02:37, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

Conflict>:@. have to retype>:@
 * I have taken the data about jumping, action button, players ect
 * I have left only useful information, only about the game's features, like vehciles, weapons and moves. Because it's about the games features, that is why this article has been made

 * Merge or Delete - If there's any extractable nuggets of information (which I can't find, myself) they should be merged into the main article, otherwise deleted. Barneyboo 04:24, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

 * You are a trove of endless jokes. I suggest you stop while you're ahead. A simple answer to your inquiry is that it takes time for people to notice things. --Apostrophe 20:17, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

oh sh@t dejavor! &gt;x&lt;ino 00:53, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Care to speak the language that this encyclopedia is based on? Weak grammar is one thing; making up entirely nonsense words to fit the situation is quite other beast. --Apostrophe 02:15, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

 * some one should do an article on it:P

 * Keep - It looks like a good article to me. There are already articles about all the features he's described.  So if we are describing moves from Shadow the Hedgehog, then surely we can describe how to use them?  The guy seems to be speaking leet which is influencing votes unfairly, IMO.

 * Delete: Wikipedia is not GameFAQs (again), and it is not a place for how-to guides (explicitly). The merge/redirect is the only hope of preserving the content whatsoever, and I'm against that for the very reasons cited by the "keep" voters: our articles are not how-to, either, and merging a how-to section to an existing article is a way of confusing the new users, who will see that and think that it's a great idea to write articles with how to achieve cheat codes, etc.  That's not encyclopedic and not Wikipedian.

Like i said before, i have removed the moves, and surely left the section about weapons used & Vehicles &gt;x&lt;ino 14:27, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
