Panzerfaust (history - links - logs)

I'm nominating the Panzerfaust for a split. This is because the WW2 variant and Ghosts varinat are drastically different. The WW2 variant is an Anti-tank grenade (essentially), while the Ghosts variant is based on the Panzerfaust 3, which is an Anti-tank rocket launcher. As such, they function drastically different, and per COD:NAME "If a weapon is named the same, looks the same, but functions in a drastically different way, split.".

Keep

Keep — Unless the name is changed later, I think it's better to keep them on the same page. Mostly the same reasoning as keeping the BO and BO2 sections of the Crossbow in one page (despite being different), or the World at War and BO: Declassified sections of the .357 Magnum. --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 17:17, August 18, 2013 (UTC)

Keep — this would be like seperating an m16 variant in the m16 page because its a different version than another. the panzerfaust 3 is a variant of the panzerfaust just like the m16. the m16a4 and a1 have their own pages because theyre listed under different names, but this is under the same name as the ww2 version, so i say keep it. RisingSun2013 (talk) 23:19, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

The Panzerfaust in WW2 and the Panzerfaust of today are not different variants of the same weapon. That's kind of like saying the AT4 and RPG shouldn't have separate pages.

Comment — the at4 and rpg are two different weapons, the panzerfaust from wwii and the panzerfaust 3 are two different weapons in a way but its still somewhat a variant of the wwii version. RisingSun2013 (talk) 04:33, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

Hardly. "Panzerfaust" just translates to "Tank fist". A Panzerfaust 3 is an Anti-tank Rocket Launcher, and a Panzerfaust is a mobile Anti-tank grenade. Stating the Panzerfaust and Panzerfaust 3 is "somewhat the variant of the WWII version" is similar to stating the StG-44 and M4A1 are the same weapon.

Comment — not really since those are two different weapons, just like my point with the rpg and at4 being different. i see your point with the panzerfausts now though and wont argue on that anymore. RisingSun2013 (talk) 20:15, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

also, the stg is more comparible to the ak47 than the m4a1. RisingSun2013 (talk) 20:18, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

AR-15 is based on the StG, the M4A1 is based on the AR-15. Hence why I used it as comparison.

Split - I also wish to cite the fact it does not really meet the "looks the same" requirement for sharing the page. Raven's wing ^Talk09:13, August 18, 2013 (UTC)

Split - Right, per nom. --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 17:22, August 18, 2013 (UTC)

Split - Definitely needs to be 2 different pages. Per Nom. Redskin-26 17:41, August 18, 2013 (UTC)

Comments/Questions

Comment — If it gets split, since the menu description calls it a "Panzerfaust" then it would be wrong to call it a Panzerfaust 3 as the article name. However the names seen in-game aren't set in stone and in the CaC be called Panzerfaust 3. But with the info given already, not a lot, whould it be called Panzerfaust (Ghosts) then? Argorrath _{おしゃべり}16:02, August 18, 2013 (UTC)

Most likely yes. --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 17:22, August 18, 2013 (UTC)

Likely better to give it its game name and give the other Panzerfaust a name such as "Panzerfaust (WW2)", just to keep the two separate.
