The result was delete. - Mailer Diablo 07:24, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Pure plot summary describing the background of the Warhammer 40K miniatures game. This plot summary doesn't actually go with any work; it's a synthesis of various comments about such-and-such war in different works. This fails Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information #7 and WP:NOR. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 11:50, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom. --Pak21 11:51, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete possibly merge to main article if the information is relevant and sourced. --Porqin 12:02, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep I fail to see what makes this article any different from other articles we have regarding fictious backstory. --Falcorian (talk) 12:54, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment perhaps those other articles should be deleted as well :-) Could you give some pointers as to some similar articles you're referring to? Cheers --Pak21 13:02, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete fails WP:V and I'm pretty suspicious it violates WP:OR - if citations are added, I'll reconsider WilyD 14:15, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- As the creator of the article I actually agree with deletion; given that I've rewritten it as a section in another article. I accept I was coming at this one from the wrong angle - but I'd like people to note that it is not original research. The only reason I haven't (correctly) referenced the Battlefleet Gothic book is that at the time I hadn't figured out the referencing syntax.Sojourner001 14:57, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Okay, well if you can patch it up to get it past WP:V, it'll probly be able to get past WP:OR - the latter is more like how it tastes than anything concrete. WilyD 15:00, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- It can easily be patched for WP:V. --Falcorian (talk) 03:25, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
