Wars in A Song of Ice and Fire

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

No third party sourcing and unlikely to be any substantial third party work to support a viable article about wars in a fictional series. -- The Red Pen of Doom  19:55, 5 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete, I love this series but this is more suited to a fan website then wikipedia. SorryHell In A Bucket (talk) 20:51, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Dito on both accounts. It's been copied over to wikia:asoiaf:Wars in A Song of Ice and Fire a while ago (although it would have been better placed at wiki.westeros.org, they have more pages and less ads), so it's not gonna be lost. Amalthea  21:11, 5 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Trim and Keep or merge - presumably the wars have in universe notability and there is no consensus that real world notability is required for individual elements of fiction. The article contains excessive detail, but that is a problem that can be solved via editing not deletion.  Usually merging is the best option for this type of article, so I would certainly support that.  However, the information relevant to the novel's universe should be preserved in one fashion or another. --ThaddeusB (talk) 02:37, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Merge to A Song of Ice and Fire (a much better target than George R. R. Martin)or trim and semi-integrate in summary style. It's a very notable series, but this level of detail seems excessive. Had it not already been transwiki'ed, I'd recommend that as well. Jclemens (talk) 18:18, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
