[edit] List of online puzzles

If this was formatted like a conventional video game list, it would be entirely redlinks (bar one game). As it stands, it is a collection of external links and a forum for self-promotion/advertising. Prod was removed by an anonymous user with the comment: (Removed the removal request as this is a valid resource to illustrate the meaning of an online riddle or puzzle.)

• Delete: WP:NOT a directory, a list of game reviews, or a place to promote yourself (and your friends). An interesting page however. --Daniel Olsen 06:57, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. This belongs to DMOZ or similar services. Pavel Vozenilek 11:37, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Just a list of links. Peter O. (Talk) 23:20, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
• Don't Delete. A brilliant list of links, if you fall in love with one of the games, it is an excelent page to refer you to similar pages. User:AoOs
  • But that's the function of a directory, not an encyclopedia. Marasmusine 19:35, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
• Don't Delete. First this list was part of the Online_puzzles article and same discussion was held there. Then it was moved to this list of links and now the hole discussion gets repeated. I think the article Online_puzzles would be useless at all without a linklist. If this list is deleted all the riddles will start there own articles on Wikipedia again (that is how it started some years ago). But I must admit that a lot of the links are not worth to be mentioned here. Soulmanager
• Delete per nom. Directories belong elsewhere. --Ghewgill 10:18, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
