[edit] RuneScape Wiki

RuneScape Wiki (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Non-notable wiki. No reliable sources, not notable outside of a small group of people. Prod removed by User:Otherone - "a search for 'runescape wiki' gets 3,050 Google hits and is mentioned in the Finnish Wikipedia's article on RuneScape." --- RockMFR 16:46, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete but it seems reasonable to include as an external link on the RuneScape page. Tarinth 17:15, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, and it's already an external link in that article (actually only pseudo-external, [[wikia:RuneScape]] links there). -Amarkov blahedits 17:38, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete I agree - delete it (non-notable), but include it in an external reference on the RuneScape page. --Sbrools (talk . contribs) 17:39, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete it's non-notable. TSO1D 00:01, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete RuneScape's editors are not shy about pointing readers to the RS wiki to gain information useful to players, it's been linked from the RS page for some time. None of the RS fan/help sites have their own article (wouldn't pass WP:WEB) and they'd most likely generate more traffic. Our visitors' needs have been taken into consideration so this article is redundant. QuagmireDog 01:28, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, eh. At least there's some consensus. oTHErONE (Contribs) 03:38, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak delete, without prejudice to recreation if greater notability is found. Sorry guys, but Wookieepedia is quite notable, but has still paid a visit to AfD a couple of times. I'll be sorry to see this go, but rules are rules. CaptainVindaloo t c e 16:52, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
  • The two wikis are of entirely different size and scope, though. This one has 2,000 articles, while the Star Wars one has over 40,000 articles. While article count is not an official way to judge a wiki's notability, it does work well enough. --- RockMFR 19:42, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
