[edit] Los Santos, San Andreas

Los Santos, San Andreas (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 Grand Theft Auto game articles. As Wikipedia is not a gameguide, this material is not appropriate for the encyclopedia, is also entirely duplicative and can be safely deleted. Judgesurreal777 03:43, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

• Delete: Not notable; already covered Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas#Los Santos. - Rjd0060 04:27, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

• Comment - Can we please merge this discussion with Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Las Venturas, San Andreas - I think it's fair to say the three articles live and die together, and there's no point having separate AfDs which will just repeat what the others say. mattbuck 09:48, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Reply: No. The discussion was already started so there's no possibility to merge it at this time. The nom could have listed these 3 in a group, but thats okay. - Rjd0060 15:20, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

True, but appeals to the person who closes this many times appears to sway things, so if you feel it should be merged, explain why and the closer my listen. Judgesurreal777 16:48, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

It doesn't matter if you do, or don't. Grouping is just an optional convenience. - Rjd0060 16:50, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Grouping is now being avoided by many at is attracts trolls and people who ignore or dont care about policy. Judgesurreal777 17:01, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

• Comment - Transiwikied to StrategyWiki:Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas/Los Santos (along with StrategyWiki:Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas/Las Venturas and StrategyWiki:Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas/San Fierro). -- Prod-You 16:20, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
• Keep - this is an article that expands upon information shown in other page. CoolGuy (talk) 22:11, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
• Keep This article could be easily expanded to be of the same quality of San Fierro so I don't see why it would be deleted. It has about the same level of notability.TostitosAreGross (talk) 18:20, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

....and that article happens to be an in-universe, unreferenced, and probably unnotable article. Why choose that one as an example? And where is the proof that this has notability? If it exists, please post it here for us to see. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 18:42, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

• • Comment - I want to keep this article, but to be honest there is no reason to. It is complete fancruft, and your argument there is just WP:OTHERSTUFF. It's not really notable, and could probably be merged back into San Andreas (Grand Theft Auto) mattbuck (talk) 18:53, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
