Call of Duty Wiki:Articles for Deletion/Marines (Zombies)

This page is an archive. Please do not edit the contents of this page, other than for maintenance.

Marines_(Zombies) (history - links - logs)

Despite being playable characters, they do not seem to be notable at all, as they do not have a name and the article is named out of speculation. The page is mostly speculation and unsourced (pardon my italian) bullshit. We can either delete it, or we can merge it into Verruckt.

• EDIT* The page has since improved since the nomination was put up. The nomination will remain until it plays itself out. Rambo362 02:23, March 12, 2011 (UTC) (Nominator)

Delete

Delete — I completely agree. I had to delete about half of the article because is was fanon. It will only attract speculation.

Keep

Keep — I think they should stay since they are just like any other zombie character like Nixon or dempsey.Dudebot121256 01:49, March 9, 2011 (UTC)dudebot121256

Keep — I completely agree with you, they are characters in the game and have a story, plus it was the first article I created, its not speculation, its facts that you can find in the vbush document.

Keep — - They are still playable characters, marines in any other call of duty and the marines in a nazi zombies are very different -- Chily900 21:50, March 9, 2011 (UTC)

Keep — They are playable characters from zombies like Dempsey or Nikolai- Cpt.Shock

Keep — All playable characters deserve recognition, per COD:NOTABLE. If the Thermal Imaging TV Operator guy has an article, these people have every right to have one as well. Smuff^{[citation provided]} 16:59, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

Keep — Per above. N7 TC

Keep — Per all. Cpl.Bohater^{Talk Contribs} 23:17, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

Keep — every playable charecter has a article this is a playable which means it deserves a article.Noahg11 23:24, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

Keep — it is a perfectly good article BonJovi4Eva 18:16, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Keep — These are playable characters and therefore important. Some other playable character articles have been requested for featured status so how is this one different. Cryptar 08:05, March 14, 2011 (UTC)

Keep — Per Smuff. Rallinale 08:03, March 15, 2011 (UTC)

Split/Merge

Merge — I declare for merge since Marines are still Marines even if they are fictional marines dead in Zombie Verruckt GunsSwordsFlames 00:45, March 9, 2011 (UTC)

Comments/Questions

Does the Marines Have Names?

If Not, Then How should we Name them? Cam37 01:18, March 9, 2011 (UTC)

No they don't have names. We would have to have a page titled 'Unspecified Marines' or something. Rambo362 01:57, March 9, 2011 (UTC)

I think the page should just be re-done its choppy and the page starts with "The marines in zombies" —Unsigned comment was added by Speical ops genral minigun

I completely agree with you, they are characters in the game and have a story, plus it was the first article I created, its not speculation, its facts that you can find in the vbush document. This is one of the reasons to keep it. I fail to see how "it was the first article I created" is a logical reason to keep it, and it was never confirmed that the same Marines where at Nacht der Untoten, or that they where even Marines for that matter, and that part IS speculation.

Yes it was confirmed that they were marines. —Unsigned comment was added by Pancake301

Might I see this reference? Smuff^{[citation provided]} 20:09, March 14, 2011 (UTC)

In-game quote stated randomly during gameplay. Only reference. It might not even be legitimate. Rambo362 00:09, March 16, 2011 (UTC)

Can we remove the template for the Marines (Zombies) page since its safe to say its being kept? Dudebot121256 19:05, March 16, 2011 (UTC)Dudebot121256

No because it actually isn't. We have not reached consensus ad we won't until the alloted time has passed. Rambo362 19:26, March 16, 2011 (UTC)

Closed - There's a strong consensus to keep it, and since they're playable characters, they do fall under the notability policy. The article just needs to be improved. Template:Signatures/Sactage 19:36, March 16, 2011 (UTC)
