[edit] Mega Man Timeline
Not verifiable, no instant sources are avalible to support claims and the entire listing is saturated with original research. Currently, no official statements from Cpacom verify the factual observations of this article. ZeroTalk 02:47, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
- Delete; unencyclopedic, fancruft, original research, etc. Royboycrashfan 03:01, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
- Merge into Mega Man. It seems to just be a plot summary of the Megaman games. Many other Wikipedia entries for games (ex. Half-Life 2), contain plot summaries. Where (talk) 03:14, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
DeleteStrong Delete -There's summaries and there's cruft, and right now I'm stinking cruftage around this page. I'd get pruning and merging right away, cruft0rs.The more I look at this article, the more it looks like a type of fanfic, taking place right here in an encyclopedia. It's certainly original research, they're guessing at dates for a fictional timeline because none are given. Even other fans are saying what is there isn't canon, is speculative or is flat out incorrect. No way should this be merged, or kept in any form. ◄ИΞШSΜΛЯΞ► 07:31, 2 April 2006 (UTC)- Merge into Mega Man as per Where. Jude (talk,contribs,email) 08:31, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, unverifiable. MaxSem 11:18, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NOR, as Newsmare says. Looking through Talk:Mega Man Timeline, it seems that the actual dates on the time line are made up (e.g., 20XX is assumed to be 2014, or 2015, or something). Any verifiable plot information is already in the individual games' artilces, so there's no need to merge. - Rynne 14:52, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, WP:V is non-negotiable Deizio 16:37, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
- Delete original research. The right way to do it (relatively) would be to just re-write all the stories from the mega-man games (documented in manuals, etc) into a long history. At least there would be support. This is just guess work in attempting to contruct a timeline. Bobak 20:57, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
