Toaster Oven (GameFAQs)
Never before has the phrase "Wikipedia is not GameFAQs" been more appropriate. If this is notable within the GameFAQs community, then it can be mentioned in the main article. &mdash; Xezbeth 16:43, Jun 4, 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge and then Delete - I'm not a "everyday" GameFAQs visitor (just when I'm stuck on a certain video game) but there is already a section for "Message boards" on the GameFAQs article and it briefly mentioned "Toaster Oven." As the article stands, just not justifiable to be stand a lone. The reason for the deletion is that it is an orphan article --Chill Pill Bill 17:06, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * From Guide to Votes for deletion:
 * Some newcomers to the VFD process tend to combine shorthands in ways that are self-contradictory or contrary to fundamental Wikipedia policy. The following votes incorporate mutually incompatible things or are contrary to fundamental Wikipedia policy, and should be avoided:
 * "Merge to Example and Delete". Article merger requires that editing history of the source article be kept, for attribution purposes as required by the GFDL. It is not allowed to delete the editing history whilst retaining this content. -- Mgm|(talk) 17:58, Jun 4, 2005 (UTC)


 * Comment: I don't think it's necessary to delete or merge the article, certain boards on GameFAQs should have an article mostly because they have a history... (unsigned Wikilord)
