[edit] Wikipedia war and WikiWar

Irony of ironies, it appears we have a bit of a war going on over whether WikiWar or Wikipedia war is the name used for an edit war on Wikipedia. One must die... or redirect to the other... or both can go if it's a self-reference. No vote from me. ➨ ❝REDVERS❞ 22:43, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete both of them as self-references. This sort of stuff belongs in the Wikipedia: namespace, but there really isn't anything worth moving over. BryanG 22:55, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete both as self-references. Would move into Wikipedia:Edit war if there was any real content. The main article space could hold some text about edit warring on wikis in general, if some verifiable, not-OR source could be found for it, but this isn't it.

• Delete per above. Vslashg (talk) 22:56, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete both. Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Bucketsofg 22:57, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete both as self-reference. Brian G. Crawford 22:58, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete both as not notable enough for its own article, more than as self-reference; edit wars are already covered in Wikipedia. --Allen 23:00, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
• 'Delete as self-reference. How did it happen we got two different articles with the same content... both apparently believing WP is a dictionary not an encyclopedia. Hmm... merge User:Dr Sachs with User:Woodrov. Шизомби 23:58, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

The text at WikiWar implies that the creator copied all the text from Wikipedia war, not having enough seniority to be able to just move the article (isn't the threshold 25 edits?). Henning Makholm 00:22, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete all self references belong in mainspace ⇒ SWATJester ^Ready Aim _Fire! 00:18, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete both per above. --Khoikhoi 02:41, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete both, as they say on wikt, "tosh." Also, Wikipedia is not an online dictionary. --Rory096 20:42, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete both. Discussion of Wikipedia edit wars should be confined to project namespace (where they are already well documented, to say the least), and edit wars as a topic aren't large enough a topic to make an article of (can be discussed under wiki and subarticles.) We have WP:LAME and that's how we like it, thankyouverymuch. --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 14:28, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
