[edit] Eldest (Prior speculation)

In the first place, Wikipedia is not a place for "speculation". This article seems to want to serve as an sort of archive of how the Eldest article looked a few days ago, before the book was released. Wikipedia already has a place for archived articles, and it's called "history". Coffee 14:49, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

• Comment. If that is so, then why is Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (prior speculation) not on vfd yet. --May the Force be with you! Shreshth91($ |-| r 3 $ |-| t |-|) 14:57, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
  • It was on VFD, twice. Honestly, I think it squeezed by the first time because the euphoria of the Harry Potter release made the masses of Harry Potter fans spring to the article's defense. The second one failed because it was too soon after the first. Coffee 15:06, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

• Merge to Eldest as a distinct section, there are recent edits and discussion on that talk page, I have left a message there, saying as much, pointing them here. Alf 21:10, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

• Delete per Coffee. I don't see the value of these "prior speculation" articles. --Metropolitan90 02:31, September 2, 2005 (UTC)
