[edit] Zealot Trivia
I have nominated this article because of the use of the word "trivia", which is defined by wiktionary as insignificant trifles of little importance, especially items of unimportant information. This puts the article in direct conflict with my understanding of the following Wikipedia guidelines:
- Articles title assumes that the information therin is trivial, violating NPOV
- If we are to assume that the articles information is indeed trivial then it is violating Imporance.
- Finally being that a trivia list is inherintly a list of random facts, this article is in violation of What Wikipedia is not.
Some or all of the information in this artile may be good however, it should be integrated into proper places within established articles. For advice on how this may be accomplished you might want to look at: Wikipedia:Trivia and User:GK/On adding trivia to the main body of an article. The_stuart 17:48, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
- Keep this one: it isn't trivia about Zealot or Zealots, it's about a former AOL game called "Zealot Trivia." Smerdis of Tlön 18:19, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep as per Smerdis. The nominator obviously didn't even look at the article before nominating it, doing so only based on the name, and so the reasons for deletion don't apply in the slightest. Please try to READ an article before you nominate it for deletion. --Maelwys 18:44, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
