[edit] Custom Counter-Strike maps

This article is about custom maps created by users for Counter-Strike. There's already a perfectly serviceable article on the maps at Counter-Strike maps. This is just a dumping ground for fans to dump their own fan-made maps. Vanityspamigamecruft. Not sourced, not notable, not verifiable, WP:NOT a game guide. Delete. This information should NOT be merged into the Counter-Strike maps article, as the maps on this article are not official. Proto::type 15:12, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete I think there's probably an article to be had on this topic, either on its own or as a section in Counter-Strike maps. However, the present article is really just an extended list of available unofficial maps. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 15:20, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
  • I tried, I really did, to find more than three lines in this article to put into the Counter-Strike maps article. But everything other than the three line intorduction is gameguide stuff. Proto::type 15:31, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - Agreed with nom that these are unsourced and unverifiable. No claims of notability differentiating these maps from any other unofficial fan creations. While a well-sourced section in a Counter-strike article may be appropriate for discussing independent map development, this article is not. Wickethewok 15:22, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
• Merge parts into the main article about Counter-Strike maps. Map types such as FY and Surf are notable and popular within the CS community (FY moreso than Surfing, however..). Although the lists of maps are kind of useless (unless they have links attached to them, like fy_iceworld) I'd say. -- gakon5 20:33, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Article fails too many policies and guidelines to mention. JimmyBlackwing 04:42, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Leave it alone Custom maps are one of the main reasons why counter-strike is as popular today as it has ever been. For example we run a rats server which has over 25,000 individual users (thats users, not connections, of which there are hundreds of thousands) play on every year, specifically to play these custom rats maps. D6 not remove this section, it is a piece of gaming history! - 13:15, 28 July 2006 (UTC) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.134.104.104 (talk • contribs).
• Delete Custom maps might play a role as to why Counter-Strike is so unique and popular, but the page is not sourced, and will be really hard to regulate over time. --angers 15:59, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
