[edit] Lorkhan (Elder Scrolls)

Lorkhan (Elder Scrolls) (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) 16:15, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Why delete only this article? Video game lore is common as all get out on Wikipedia, and it does no harm to leave it be. - C. Ainsworth —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.186.133.150 (talk) 03:07, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

But we need well written encyclopedic coverage, not "Game lore". Judgesurreal777 16:37, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

This data is more or less all that has been given by the developers at this point. It is presented as such. Is "encyclopedic" formatting so very important? I see no issue with the data as it appears now. - As Above —Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.152.120.79 (talk) 18:41, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

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

• Delete. No out-of-universe perspective, no real-world notability. Does not meet the requirements of Wikipedia:Notability (fiction). Pagrashtak 16:18, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Game-related deletions. --Gavin Collins (talk) 08:55, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as there are no primary source cited to verify the "content" of this article, which is unecessary plot summary anyway. There are no reliable secondary sources to demonstrate the notability of this fictional deity outside of the The Elder Scrolls canon. --Gavin Collins (talk) 08:55, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
