Solving The Rubiks Cube

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This is just an badlywritten version of the Beginners' method in rubiks cube website. Isn't this is the equivalent of a game walkthrough. This is certainly not the only way to solve a rubik's cube(for beginners too), so this has no significance in my opinion Daiyusha (talk) 05:53, 17 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete - this is a very poorly written article. If we are going to have space on how to solve a Rubik cube it should be merged with the article on Rubik's cube, but it should be written in better English than this article. Vorbee (talk) 08:41, 17 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOTHOWTO. What isn't a "how to" is already covered in  and Optimal solutions for Rubik's Cube. SpinningSpark 15:14, 17 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment. There is room for Wikipedia to give a more reader-friendly, lower-level discussion about solving the cube.  It is a big and important topic, with many books, many sources about it.  I don't think the existence of a general dictum "Wikipedia is not a how-to" whatever matters too much.  We certainly can and do explain how to do many things, probably to play chess and Go and checkers and other games.  wp:NOTHOWTO doesn't apply exactly, either.  This is not a cheat-sheet for how to get through a commercial video game;  it is far more fundamental.  An entry-level discussion about how to solve the cube, which links at appropriate places to more complicated topics, could be a good article to have. --Doncram (talk) 18:49, 17 November 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete It seems fairly clear that information on solving a Rubiks Cube belongs on the page for the Rubiks Cube. - Sdkb (talk) 06:28, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
