[edit] BNLS

A third-party server to emulate the encryption algorithms of Blizzard Entertainment. The article seems to have been written by a webforum insider, perhaps the author of the BNLS server. I think the topic is too narrow to be encyclopedic. Delete. — JIP | Talk 11:24, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

• SMerge to Battle.net. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-01-11 23:06Z
• I agree with nominator that this is too narrow a topic. I agree with Quarl that a smerge to battle.net seems appropriate. Let the folks who care about that article decide what content here is useful to that article. The best way to accomplish this is to turn the article into a redirect, thus preserving history for those who may want it. But I suppose I'm somewhat outside the realm of Afd with that suggestion. This is a good example of why Afd is bad and talk pages should be used for this type of discussion. Friday (talk) 17:52, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
  • It's fine to say "Redirect" in AFD. Merge and smerge also involve creating a redirect at the end. It's not just a choice between Delete and Keep :) —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-01-13 03:25Z
• Merge and redirect per Quarl. FCYTravis 05:43, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
