[edit] Call of Duty 4

Call of Duty 4 (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) - (View log)

Pure speculation, violates WP:CRYSTAL. COD4 probably is in the works, but there has been no official statement. The web article used as the source is a non-notable reference that makes an ambiguous claim to an unknown reliable source. The COD4 article contains nothing as it stands except rumour, which is what we don't want on Wikipedia. Additionally, the official site has not been updated to reflect COD4 in development. Remake article when more information has been released. Scottie theNerd 16:42, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

• Note: This debate has been added to the list of CVG deletions. --Scottie theNerd 16:45, 20 January 2007 (UTC) (UTC)
• Note also: I've cut the article waaay down, turning into a stub as it should be. So is now significantly different from when it was first listed. Mathmo ^Talk 13:13, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:CRYSTAL. Cream147 18:40, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete or replace with substub. Of course, the page should be remade when there is some verifiable information about the game other than it being in progress. — brighterorange (talk) 19:26, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

• Make stub, then expand as more news is announced. Mathmo ^Talk 13:04, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment: You also have to consider that even with more sources stating the development of Call of Duty 4, there are still no reliable sources. The information presented thus far are based off leaks. This does not do many favours for its accuracy or authenticity, especially as the official site has not listed the game nor any news of it. It could be months before anything is released. There's little point in keeping a stub with no conclusive content; we should follow normal procedure and delete the article until something substantial comes out. Why keep something around that is potentially misleading? --Scottie theNerd 14:44, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete, per WP:CRYSTAL. No reliable sources are cited, and the game is barely or not at all in the development stage. –Llama man 20:28, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as above; article can be re-created when the game is officially announced. --Alan Au 21:24, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
• Neutral It a source, but I am unsure if it is reliable. --Exarion 03:39, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
