[edit] Harry Potter RPGs

• Do we really need an article on every kind of message board role-playing game or collaborative fan fiction project? Not notable outside of their own communities. Delete. -Sean Curtin 05:45, August 14, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete fanfic, collaborative or otherwise. Heh...I just nominated the same thing in my fandom for VFD just now, too. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 06:41, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, individual pieces of fanfic may not be notable, but whole genres of it are. Kappa 08:14, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
  • You're right. This genre of fanfic is described nicely in Message board role-playing game, an encyclopedic article (that could probably do with a little improvement, but I'm a perfectionist). The Harry Potter article adds nothing not already mentioned in that article. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 13:25, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. We most certainly do not need more Harry Potter articles. / Peter ^Isotalo 10:26, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Comparatively well written but very pointless, as noted.Sandstein 11:01, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, per Gtrmp. Nandesuka 12:19, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• Weak keep Whilst I personally don't see the point as per Peter, the best point is made by Kappa. --Lomedae 12:53, August 14, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. --*drew 14:05, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, per User:A Man In Black. --Calton | Talk 14:13, August 14, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete non-encyc. We've enough cruft here already to re-cruft a whole de-crufted thing. -Splash 16:14, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Cruft cruft cruft cruft. Lovely cruft! Wonderful cruft! Cruft cru-u-u-u-u-uft cruft cru-u-u-u-u-uft cruft. Lovely cruft! Lovely cruft! Lovely cruft! Lovely cruft! Lovely cruft! Cruft cruft cruft cruft! - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 16:41, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete no verifiability outside of the websites themselves. No impact on the world outside of their own communities. Friday (talk) 17:57, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. WP:N, WP:V. Friday hits it spot on.—Encephalon | ζ | Σ 22:00:45, 2005-08-14 (UTC)
• weak keep Fanfiction is good but that is the only reason to keep it - Aeon 00:58, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as per cruft vikings. Hamster Sandwich 01:12, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Notable. — BRIAN0918 • 2005-08-15 02:48
• Keep, per Kappa. Sjakkalle (Check!) 08:46, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
• Crappy, really useless fan trivia. Delete. Proto t c 10:20, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Well...it does state the obvious at the moment, but the topic is notable. Sam Vimes 12:46, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, Perhaps it needs to be part of a larger article on the cultural phenomenon of Harry Potter thus joining several of these types of pages together. --Gearspring 00:06, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
