Call of Duty Wiki:Articles for Deletion

Articles for Deletion is where anyone can nominate an article to be deleted for whatever reason, and everyone decides if it should. To bring the article up for deletion, add "" to the top of the respective article, and make a subsection on this page about it.

If the article qualifies for speedy deletion (see criteria for speedy deletion), use "" instead, and don't make a subsection here. An administrator will find it and take care of it.

Slayback (Modern Warfare 2)
This is a very small article, and the character, while not randomly generated isn't signifigant. TheManOfIron 09:58, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

This player is addressed once by name, and is otherwise just a dead character. I propose this for deletion. TheManOfIron 09:58, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

Change to

Stealth
A disambiguation page is unnecessary for this, and if people are interested in the killer challenges, the can just go look at the challenges page. Plus, stealth is much too general to warrant a page.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
Is this the same as Call of Duty (Sledgehammer games)? If so, we should delete one of them. If not, forget this nomination.

PS: For some reason the wiki thinks Call of Duty (Sledgehammer games) doesn't exist. It does as of now. Seijana 07:54, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

They are different games. -- 08:44, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

There should not even be articles for them, there is no info whatsoever. We should delete them until info is released. Cpt. RileyLet's Talk 08:46, July 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * There's info, look at the references for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 as well as Call of Duty (Sledgehammer Games). -- 08:50, July 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * It proves that they are in production. -- 08:51, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

List of weapons by map
I don't really see a point in this article - by the time it's finished for every single game it will be HUGE. I don't understand why it's necessary.

Weapons
We already have several other ways to find weapons. I think we should delete this, what do you all think ?

Category: Ranks
Contains only Real-Life information. The only element pertaining to COD is the list of characters of that particular rank, which is non-notable. Ranks alone are not important in the COD universe. --Scottie theNerd 11:31, August 4, 2010 (UTC)

I agree, it's basiclly useless. Dolten  Lets Talk  15:55, August 6, 2010 (UTC)

Are you suggesting deleting the category? Or all the articles in it as well? Seijana 04:00, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

North Africa
Geographical information; no content related to Call of Duty per COD:G and related discussion. --Scottie theNerd 13:11, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

Per Scottie. How many times have I said that recently? 20:54, August 17, 2010 (UTC)

Ryan Lastimosa
I propose the deletion of this article as it has very little to do with the game, and as the character is mentioned in a newspaper, it shouldn't have its own page. -- Eltomo85 15:32, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

Cook (Call of Duty 4)
He is a somewhat random character that deserves no article. Dolten  Let's Talk  21:15, August 10, 2010 (UTC)

Actually, I moved it. Dolten  Let's Talk  02:54, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Dwight D. Eisenhower
Never seen nor mentioned in-game. If we have a page for him we may as well have a page on Joseph Bottorff. Dolten  Let's Talk  22:03, August 10, 2010 (UTC)

Ilyushin IL-2
We don't make pages for every battle thats taken place, why have any? Dolten  Let's Talk  03:02, August 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's a plane, not a battle—and we already cover plenty of aircraft. 06:03, August 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * I was about to say the same thing earlier (somehow, my IP at work got blocked from July, even though I had been editing from it for weeks). I'm not sure what the nomination is about. --Scottie theNerd 07:06, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Game Consoles
Per the no Real Life policy, these don't need to be on the wiki. They don't add anything relevant to the games, anyway. Hk37 Need help? Contact me here! 01:06, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

Oppose - They technicaly have to do with CoD. (I don't know how to add the symbols. Can some one do that for me? Conqueror of all Zombies 01:11, August 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Xbox Live, PSN, and the internet all connect players to multiplayer. Since they also have to do with Call of Duty, must we have articles on them too? 01:40, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

Oppose - Why would you delete this stuff! This helps FNG pick a choice of having a ps3 or xbox360 with the COD games. My friend saw this wikia and check on which console he should choose for his new COD game. Just leave the console alone. Many FNG will find this site just to pick choices. GunsSwordsFlames


 * That honestly makes no sense to me. Wikipedia can do those articles better, so we don't need to have them. 12:25, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

 * That is indeed a very bad misapplication of COD:G (which is about to be phased out anyway). If a reader doesn't know what a PSP, CODwiki isn't going to tell them much about it -- and really, Wikipedia wouldn't either. Hey, some users don't know what intelligence is, but we're not going to start writing articles about etiquette, politics and insults. --Scottie theNerd 10:09, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

Once again, I have to agree with Scottie. Consoles are not what the COD Wiki is about, I'm sure Wikipedia or even a Wikia dedicated to consoles is a better alternative. 01:27, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Achievements walkthrough
There is not another achievement guide so why should this game have one. If people want a giude they can go to sites dedicated to guides, this one however, is not.

Gary
It's a disambiguation for a Wikipedia article and Roach. A link for Mr. Oldman's article can be put on the Reznov page; no need to make a disambiguation for it.

 Happy Boy T M   E 18:34, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

Redirect to Gary "Roach" Sanderson - Disambigging to articles on other sites just isn't practical or useful enough to be done. However, the page existing as a redirect to the only item left would be both practical and useful. 18:59, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

Nomination Closed page has been turned into a redirect, per Chiafriend12. 21:13, August 17, 2010 (UTC)

Luftwaffe
I think it is irrelivant to the call of duty wiki. They are only seen in the background of most games. Dempsey115 17:51, August 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * They also play major roles in Liberators and Operation Little Satrun/Airfield Ambush. Not to mention they are additionally seen in Stalingrad, Not One Step Back, Breakdown/Into Red Square, A Desert Ride, Into the Heartland, We've Been Through Worse, Assault on Matmata, and Vendetta. 20:13, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

Machine Gun
Full of real-life information, with only a few paragraphs pertaining to Call of Duty. The Call of Duty information deals with tactics, which can also be found on the Light Machine Gun page and the machine guns' respective pages.

--Scottie theNerd 01:26, August 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * In that case, it could be renamed "Mounted Machine Gun" to better fit the subject. LITE992 15:08, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
