[edit] List of ThinkTanks players, List of TT Armies and Player Alias Index

Non-notable gamecruft vanity, etc. I reckon Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/TT Players gives authority to speedy these but I will take a second opinion. -- RHaworth 15:13, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

• NOTE: I am also adding ThinkTanks (game)/List of ThinkTanks players to this, a recreation of the original article. Grandmasterka 21:35, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. I've been a TT player for over 2 years and just about EVERYONE who plays the game thinks we need this index listing of past and current players. We usually keep the list on another personal website but believe it makes more sense to keep it on wikipedia where the players can update the list themselves. Isn't that the whole point of wikipedia and one of its primary beauties? Self-sustenance? The same goes for the player alias list that links to this list.

It reveals/shares all of the psuedonyms used by players and the meanings behind their names. Paisano® 15:28, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not a free host or webspace provider. -- RHaworth 15:30, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete sorry this is gamecruft. --Terence Ong 15:41, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. It's all -cruft! Of course! Sheesh. The majority of entries in wikipedia could be labeled cruft. These pages are important to the players of the game. Paisano® 16:08, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

You are only allowed one vote and have you looked at my talk page? -- RHaworth 16:18, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete You can get your own wiki if you like, Wikipedia is something else. Thatcher131 16:35, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Non-encyclopedic lists of people playing a game. Weregerbil 16:38, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Well is there another way to include this information with our wikipedia entry without going back to external links? What about using stubs? Paisano® 16:45, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

A list of players? Not really... There are free web site providers, those welcome your information, and they often have chat sites etc. Much better than Wikipedia for organizing a gaming clan. Google should find you such sites, or ask for opinions in gaming chat sites. Weregerbil 16:56, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Textbook vanispamcruft, incredible gall to put up such a load of junk. Get your own webpage, please. Sandstein 18:28, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, per my earlier vote at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/TT Players. I thought this looked familiar... suggest authors explore (free) web hosting and set up their own TT Wiki.--Isotope23 18:32, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, as Wikipedia is not a game community. While I wish the members of said community luck in establishing a similar list elsewhere, it does not belong in an encyclopaedia. Lord Bob 21:21, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete all per all delete votes, Wikipedia is not the place for this. Grandmasterka 21:36, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete all per above. —Wrathchild ^(talk) 14:48, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete: If I may quote List of TT Armies, "there is no order". savidan^{(talk) (e@)} 04:52, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
