The result of the debate was No Consensus. I will Transwiki to MTG Salvation Wiki. In addition to the votes, I play this game: demons are not highly notable, and even if they where, the game is not notable enough to have such subarticles. I am also an admin at the MTGS wiki, so I will move it there.Voice of AllT|@|ESP 20:24, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Demons (Magic: the Gathering)
It's just a list of intervidual cards, and description of the monsters you can get in a deck of Magic cards. Not encyclopedic Delete --Jaranda wat's sup 07:51, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, notable creature type in notable game. Best to split into individual articles for each card/species. Kappa 08:07, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- No, Kappa, please don't split. Beyond copying the actual text and stats from the cards, this is the best we're going to get on any of these. At the mo, I'm very weak keep and support an expansion of the list to indicate which set each card is from, but only because this format is aeons better than having an individual article for each card. -- Saberwyn - The Zoids Expansion Project 08:33, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- Oh hell no, these need to be deleted forthwith on pain of death. --Agamemnon2 15:03, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

- Delete. Looks trivial. Catherine breillat 11:15, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Can't be expanded much more without just putting the card stats, and Kappa's suggestion of splitting into individual cards is basically giving them more importance than the Power Nine, and not one card on this list is more important. -- Grev 03:27, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
- Why does this long page need to be expanded? Kappa 23:28, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
- Possible Transwiki: One would think there was a Magic: The Gathering wiki this info could be moved to? Maybe as a subsection of http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Magic:_The_Gathering ? If unfeasible, otherwise, I'd say Delete. - Liontamer 21:27, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep but lose card descriptions, and add the history of that creature type. AFAIK there was a large gap after printing first Demons, because Fundamental Christians didn't like that or something. Unglued even includes a card with type Demon striked out and type Beast written instead. Then, when Torment came out Wizards thought that Demons are okay and released some. There were also some design changes to Demons throughout history. Grue 15:27, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
