Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2007-12-13 BMA

Who are the involved parties?
Soetermans and BMA

What's going on?
Soetermans wishes to delete all information about levels, weapons, and enemies in the article about the game "Body Harvest" on the grounds that including such information is against wikipedia policy

BMA wishes to include these sections on the grounds that this is pertinent information about the game.

What would you like to change about that?
Allow these three sections to remain in the article. Although some aspects of them might require alterations to meet wikipedia standards, their complete elimination make the article less effective and informative.

Mediator notes
Well, I can mediate if you guys approve of it, but can you actually tell me what the game you're referring to is? Wizardman 22:38, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

It seems the purpose of a user-controlled online encyclopedia is to include as much information on as wide a variety of topics that people wish to know about. This article, although it would not be appropriate in the traditional Encyclopedia Brittanica, includes a wealth of information about the game Body Harvest, and it should be allowed to remain in its current form.

I'll make this simple. While a little bit of information would be okay in the article, everything added in by BMA is far too much. You can add in that there's the five stages, with maybe a couple sentences on each one, but no more is needed than that. Closing the case since it's pretty cut and dry.
