[edit] Mercenary: The Game

Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not for things made up in school one day Pboyd04 01:22, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per WP:NFT, as evidenced by statements such as that it was "created by two students at Warwick University UK: Matisse Jayasuriya, Terry van Gevelt."--TBCTaLk?!? 01:38, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as silly, made up nonsense. TedTalk/Contributions 01:40, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete as above. Don't they have homework at Warwick? Bwithh 03:03, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
    • Speedy delete? Under what criteria? It may be non-notable, but it doesn't seem to be patent nonsense, a copyvio, etc.--TBCTaLk?!? 05:16, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete per above. SM247 04:19, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong delete per WP:NFT, don't think this is a speedy candidate, though. --Coredesat talk 04:23, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:NFT, Wikipedia is not a how-to guide. Comes very, very close to patent nonsense. Morgan Wick 05:25, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete. You cannot just make up something and then automatically put it on Wikipedia. Bad decision to put the article on here, good decision to delete it. --S-man 06:54, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. This is not a speedy delete candidate, and not patent nonsense, and every game was made up by someone. But, since there is no evidence that anyone besides these two students has ever played this game, it fails verifiablity. If I could find an independent resource listing rules for the game, or anyone writing about playing it, I would reconsider. --Nscheffey(T/C) 07:06, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete with prejudice - Wikipedia not about how you waste time at school, et cetera WilyD 14:25, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
