[edit] RuneScape items
- Delete - Ok guys, I see how the runescape main article explains to someone with no previous knowledge of Runescape what it is etc, and how eg the Wilderness article has a small description for the wilderness. But is an article on ITEMS necessary? Having a list of runescape items is really jumping off the fence in WP:NOT. And besides this, due to the large amounts of errors, bad consistency, etc in this article, I do not thoroughly believe many people even read it (copied from previous message on Talk:RuneScape_items) =-=- RZ heretic 00:24, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, this particular page isn't game-guide material. Game guide is more strategies, advice, tips, etc. Nonetheless, all information except for the bottom list is repeated other pages. These sections discounted, the bottom list wouldn't be particularly coherent. But that's on WP:NOT too! So, delete. Hyenaste [citation needed] 01:20, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, this guide really isn't all that useful. Sorta like the one I wrote, "RuneScape Music." It was useless. Freddie 02:16, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. This article is only useful as a tool to learn how to play RS. Hence, it is a game guide, and doesn't belong here. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 05:51, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete since anybody who needs to know this can get it from the game itself, and probably knows anyway. Just zis Guy you know? 13:21, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
- Move to Wikibooks as that's a better place for it DannyM 19:17, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

- I thoroughly believe this page is THE most vague, THE most confusing, THE least helpful, and THE messiest (layout, grammar, spelling etc) page regarding to runescape features. It is not a "how-to" guide but more of a "explain as vaguely as possible what each item in runescape does, including things that you get shown how to use in the tutorial etc" RZ heretic 00:26, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Not even a how-to guide - more like an overview of RS items. The subsidiary articles, such as RuneScape weaponry, are questionable as well. Zetawoof(ζ) 03:18, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per Zetawoof, possibly transwiki. But it comprehensively fails WP:WWIN. Stifle (talk) 21:01, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
- I'd personally be against a transwiki, simply because the transwiki process is heavily overloaded, and Wikibooks already has a lot of really mediocre gaming-related content. (Take a look at the "Computer And Video Games Bookshelf" for some examples.) "Transwiki to Wikibooks" should really be limited to material which is of high quality, but is simply on the wrong site.

- Delete this and all other articles on Runescape items. Theoretically, a single article providing an overview of RS items might be useful, but this is not. -Sean Curtin 05:22, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

- Yes, this article is horrid, but I try to keep the other items pages in some order. Of course, those pages do have their share of supercrufty additions by excited IPs. But, if you have a specific issue with any of the other pages in the series that can be remedied, simply say so on the page's talk. I strive to keep them in some order.

- Delete. Covered else-where, inconsistent, many grammatical problems. Xela 15:37, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
