[edit] Wulph
Non-notable game character. Delete Atrian 21:40, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. "Non-notable game character" doesn't even begin to describe it... it's not a character from the game (as published by Blizzard); it's some player's character. —Quarl (talk) 2006-01-11 04:45Z
- Delete per Quarl. Punkmorten 07:57, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
how does wikipedia work? I thought this was about sharing and expanding knowledge. I didnt even get a chance to post the facts of Wulph and you are ready to delete it. Expanding the minds of our world community is my goal, please I ask you to allow me to complete this mission. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Khainne (talk • contribs)
- This is an encyclopaedia, so we only share and expand knowledge that we know is actually true. Part of this is that we have standards for what we include in order to preserve verifiability and for other reasons. See Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not. If 'Wulph' is a widely used term on the order of Leeroy Jenkins, the article might be worth keeping or mentioning elsewhere, but you need to provide sources that prove it is. --Malthusian (talk) 17:01, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Almost considered placing a speedy tag on the basis that the CSD regarding non-notable bios should also apply to non-notable role-playing characters. But I suppose being the basis for 'to Wulph' is a claim of notability, if anyone actually ever says 'to Wulph', which I doubt but can't say for sure as I don't play WoW. --Malthusian (talk) 17:01, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
- Comment For the benefit of Khainne more than anyone else, so he knows where we're coming from, googling for 'wulph "world of warcraft"' turns up no hits that supports the article. "Wulphism" "I wulphed" "You wulphed" and "He wulphed" all turn up no hits at all. We can't spread knowledge if we don't know that it's true :-) --Malthusian (talk) 17:07, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
fair enough, please remove the article till i have time to post a new one including more detail and references. ---Khainne 18:36, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
