[edit] Reaverbot

gamecruft - NB, this is the my first attempt at nomination under the 'cruft' tag, your comments are appreciated MNewnham 14:48, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Good on yer for asking for comments. So, umm, don't take this the wrong way, but ... no! Stop! BAD! While I'm not one of the "no such thing as cruft" or "cruft is offensive" whiners, frankly, just saying "-cruft" is not a good argument for deletion. When you nominate an article, you should give your argument for why the article should be deleted — is it non-notable (why?), unverifiable (how have you tried to verify it?), a hoax (where's your evidence?), etc. Cheers, fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 15:31, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

What you've said clearly contradicts the notes on -cruft in the Guide To Deletion, "This article is trivia of interest only to hardcore fans of a specific film, television series, book, game, pop singer, web forum, etc.", so perhaps you can expand your rationale on the cruft concept.

"-cruft" is like "non-notable". It says nothing more than "I think this article should be deleted". Instead of simply saying "gamecruft", explain why you think it's -cruft. fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 03:17, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
