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 "" or "" 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.

Sniper Teams One and Two
Sniper Team One's information is all covered in the articles for Smith and Scully, whilst Sniper Team Two's information is covered in the articles for Archer and Toad. These articles are useless and repetitive.  Toon Ganondorf  (t   c)  11:43, September 6, 2010 (UTC)

B-52 Stratofortress
This is Rolling Thunder. What's the point of having it as an article when the article Rolling Thunder already lists the name of the aircraft? They both are the same thing, but Rolling Thunder has less real life info. (Which is good.) Sgt. SpetSnAZ CM 17:35, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

Merge into Quickscope. Both are terms that are heavily used and engrained in the COD community, regardless of what you may think of it. Not sure it's detailed enough to warrant its own article.

I'm not even sure if this qualifies as a legitimate article, but just incase, I'll put it up here. It's a general term, has little to no reference to Call of Duty and is barely featured other than a multiplayer rank.

I think this page can become useful for users that want to learn some new games to play with their friends.

This article is not about real game modes just fanon if this deserves to be kept then so should no scoping and quick scoping and thats not going to happen.Sgt Sprinkles 13:28, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

Custom game modes, quick scoping, and no scoping are seen in Call of Duty every day. So none of those articles should be deleted.   Diante  grassstain     13:32, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

Screaming and all that stuff shouln't but Custom Game Modes, no scoping, and quick scoping should because they are played in the game. --  Diante  grassstain     13:51, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

May I remind you that this wiki is a canon site. Custom game modes are not canon. If people want to find custom game modes to play with their friends, there are sites on the Web who can tell them about these to much greater effect than us. Sgt. S.S. 15:32, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

 * The only reason it exists in game is because of the corrisponding Death Card, meaning it's only a different weapon for the sake of Co-op. Either the page for that Death Card or the M1911 page could cover it in about two sentences. Plus, where did "Holy Pistol" come from anyway? Shotrocket6sig.png 01:33, October 27, 2010 (UTC)

It's badly written (including the title) and full of superfluous information, which probably doesn't warrant its own page.

{{Oppose|The Fast File doesn't necessarily have to be in the game for the map's loadscreen to be displayed. The loadscreen image files are kept separate from the FastFiles; they are instead kept in the IWI files.

Furthermore, the maps are referenced in the game's code. Using the available Fast File Viewer program, one can view the updated MP Fast Files that came with the Stimulus Package and view the code that references Oil Rig (as well as Vertigo and Gulag).

I also recall seeing the game fail to load the map when the player tries to play on the map, giving the player an error message saying "mp_oilrig.ff cannot be found" (or something to that extent).}} EON 8 22:30, November 29, 2010 (UTC)
