Fighters' Guild (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This article asserts no notability through reliable sources, and as such is just an in-universe repetition of plot elements from the Elder Scrolls games. As Wikipedia is not a gameguide, and this is all duplicative, this can be safely deleted. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 16:19, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

Merge or Keep I'm starting to think it's the same gang of people trying to delete these pages. I personally don't want to do that, I think that if this page was merged into an elder scrolls organizations page it would be much more notable. I do think this article does reach notability, but not everyone agrees. I'm more concerned with the lack of sources, it's horrendous. TostitosAreGross (talk) 03:02, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

In fact we agree; the lack of references, and perhaps the lack of references in existence, is a big problem for this article. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 03:07, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Ok before this article gets deleted as the Dark Brotherhood just did, I suggest we merge it to Organizations of The Elder Scrolls, as well Dark Brotherhood should be included. Once the page has been expanded and increased in quality, some references could be added and then we would have a near solution to this mess. TostitosAreGross (talk) 03:03, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
The mess is being dealt with as it gets deleted....perhaps you should look for some references to back up this idea. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 03:52, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
Perhaps you don't get it, merge this lovely information to add on to the Organizations of TES page, then reference the page and make it good enough to pass quality tests, then there isn't a problem.TostitosAreGross (talk) 03:58, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Fails WP:NOT#GUIDE and is non-notable within context of game itself Mbisanz (talk) 03:37, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
  • delete the elder scrolls fighters guild is not notable outside the game itself. mind you, if this article became a generic article about the fighters guild as something that's repeated in a lot of RPGs, i would recommend keeping it. it's clearly a reliable and notable plot device.

Perhaps if you put more thought into it you could figure out how to put this information to good use. Example merge with Organizations of The Elder Scrolls. TostitosAreGross (talk) 21:13, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
