[edit] MapleStory world

MapleStory world (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

This article consists entirely of unreferenced original research. The only references are to a couple of maps of various areas in the game, and from this a huge how-to guide has been created. Not only is it unreferenced (failing WP:V), it is original research (failing WP:NOR), and it is very much a game guide, failing WP:NOT, consisting entirely of information on how to play the game, where different objects can be found in different locations, how to travel around the world, and so on. A small section in the parent article, MapleStory already exists on gameplay, and is sufficient. It may be useful to those who play the game, but there are many better places for this, such as any of the video game Wikis out there, or GameFAQs. Strong delete per What Wikipedia is not, Wikipedia's guidelines on verifiability and No original research. Proto::► 20:03, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

  Comment - If it is decided to delete/transwiki, move it to my namespace and I'll take care of it...as soon as I figure out how to get full histories exported. -- Prod-You 20:02, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

• Transwiki, if not, Weak Agree I never quite thought about it this way but yes, I believe it should be transfered. It's just not... encyclopedia-like, and shouldn't be here. The Captain Returns 00:00, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
• Comment - this AFD was closed by an anon IP as 'redirect', which is something nobody suggested. I have reverted this. Proto::► 23:13, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
