World of Warcraft Launcher

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

This article asserts no notability through reliable sources, and is just a program that launches World of Warcraft, and as notability is not inherited, there needs to be a real assertion of notability. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 22:37, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Strong delete, without a doubt. This is literally just one screen that pops up before the actual game loads up so that it can show news before you log in. There is absolutely no notability to be inferred here. A note on the page for World of Warcraft itself wouldn't be out of line but it really shouldn't be an article on its own.

 * Exterminate, good lord, individual game screens require articles now? Mix Sup? 23:50, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge into World of Warcraft. --Pixelface (talk) 00:49, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect, since I already merged it into World of Warcraft. --Pixelface (talk) 04:00, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Nerf (delete). I'm a WoW fan, and even I can't find anything notable about how the program launches. -- RoninBK T C 07:19, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge- Non-notable, does not warrant it's own article. Merge into the World of Warcraft article, or delete. Steve Crossin (talk) 07:49, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete One wiki entry isn't substantial secondary coverage. Fails WP:N. Percy Snoodle (talk) 10:36, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Merging also would be reasonable, but I can't see how mentioning the launcher application would add anything to the main article. --Minimaki (talk) 13:37, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge or Keep, depending on votes. This is not double voting, this article is obviously notable so why should we delete this at all? Hell, why is every voting Deleting? If you want to merge, then merge. Ellomate (talk) 22:56, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * But it isn't notable. There isn't enough non-trivial third party coverage to produce notability; just because WoW is notable doesn't mean this is. AllynJ (talk | contribs) 23:17, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete or Merge The WoW launcher has no importance. Merge into WoW main article or delete altogether. --Brokenspirits (talk) 18:21 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, remove the content from World of Warcraft or slash it down to a sentence or two, it's a ridiculously long section for the loader window of the game, in an article already groaning under excessive detail. --Stormie (talk) 04:46, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, lacks the individuality that is needed for an article on Wikipedia. User:Krator (t c) 13:29, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge - I took an axe to its section on WoW, unknowing of the AfD, which shortened the list to a paragraph of propose, while keeping the paragraph on Warden. The paragraph on Warden could probably be further diminished, as it does have its own article. --Izno (talk) 03:29, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
