Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Special Weapons Dalek

from VfD

Reason I recommended this article for VfD: Poorly written fancruft. &mdash;ExplorerCDT 22:29, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)


 * Delete &mdash;ExplorerCDT 22:29, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep Dr Who trivia, IMHO, belongs here. Samboy 22:47, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC) Merge The Dalek Ranks page puts all of this information in one place. Samboy 23:42, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep the article. Lose the word "fancruft". It's just inflammatory. Articles on minor characters in Gulliver's Travels are the same thing for a different audience. Dr Zen 00:59, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge into Dalek or List of Daleky topics or something. --fvw *  01:58, 2004 Dec 15 (UTC)
 * Delete: Fancruft, and go ahead and list any minor characters from Gulliver's Travels you find on VfD to see what happens. Apparently, someone thought that Pokemon #932 was as worthwhile as Portia, above, but the community didn't agree.  If a fan wants to perform the merge, that's fine, but the information is not independently notable or known, and therefore there is no need for a stand-alone article.  Geogre 02:07, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect into either Dalek or Remembrance of the Daleks. The Special Weapons Dalek (IIRC) only appears in Part 4 of Remembrance of the Daleks and is therefore not notable enough for its own article. --Goobergunch|? 03:14, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Struck to favor Remembrance of the Daleks. Article would not be suitable for merging with Dalek. --Goobergunch|? 01:57, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect into Dalek types or soemthing. 132.205.15.43 03:25, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete: DCEdwards1966 04:24, Dec 15, 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect into Remembrance of the Daleks. Alphax (talk) 04:52, Dec 15, 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand. Everyking 05:10, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Esoteric fancruft. Indrian 06:43, Dec 15, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge if you want. Apparently a "Special Weapons Dalk" is a "Dalek" equipped with "special weapons". The rest is granular stuff belonging in a fan guide or game manual or something. -R. fiend 07:02, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Have the people who want to merge this into Dalek read that article?  One advantage of Wikipedia is that separate topics can get their own entries, and benefit from linking to each other.  Stuffing many articles together on one page does not make the encyclopedia more readable. Factitious 17:00, Dec 15, 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep and allow for organic growth. [[User:GRider|GRider\talk]] 19:05, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge to Dalek. -- Antaeus Feldspar 21:10, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete Come out from behind the sofa ! --[[User:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway|Talk]] 04:20, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Dalek Ranks, a very appropriate article. Merge already done.  The Steve  08:03, Dec 16, 2004 (UTC)
 * The article Dalek Ranks needs a rename to Dalek ranks 132.205.45.148 15:31, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Dalek Ranks or Dalek ranks or however you spell it. Maybe even redirect to Remembrance of the Daleks since that's the Dr Who episode where it appeared. P Ingerson 16:06, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge to Remembrance of the Daleks and then delete this one as it's not even likely to need a redirect ever. Any Dalek fan looking for info would know to look at Dalek. DreamGuy 22:10, Dec 17, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Daleks very are important, this particular information is not. With Dalek Ranks there is no longer a need for this individual article, if there ever was.  Gamaliel 07:16, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)
