List of Region Free Xbox 360 Games[edit]
The article List of Xbox 360 games without region encoding was deleted according to this AFD entry (and subsequently redeleted three times), which this article redirected to at one point. As I did not see the previously deleted article, CSD G4 may or may not apply here, so I am listing it here. mattbr30 17:20, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep I really don't understand what's wrong with this article. Unlike most lists, this one is actually useful. It's a service (and, I'd argue, an encyclopedic one) to tell people which games will work on which versions of the console. I'd like to see a little more verification, but considering one can just pop games into Xboxes, that's sufficient verification without including hundreds of weblinks. I didn't register my opinion in the AfD mentioned above, but if I had, I probably would've gone with a keep then, as well. -- Kicking222 17:36, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete because it mirrors two of its external links [1] [2]. --Wafulz 17:45, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Per the edit summary of the first edit to the article, the article is a straight copy and paste from another wiki. That wiki's copyright policy does not exist. I cannot find any statement that the content of that wiki is licensed under the GFDL, and any licence applied now won't apply retroactively to the edits already made, in any case. Copyvio.

- Delete - If you check the history, you'll see that I was the one who created the redirect from this page to the List of Xbox 360 games without region encoding page, that the author had made at the same time. Since that one was subsequently killed, and this is (or was) an exact copy of that page, delete. --PresN 18:53, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep I'm glad to see it's back. I only know it's back because I had forgotten it was deleted and I tried the link because I wanted to benefit from the research of others with respect to the newer 360 games. Isn't this the point? Or does it always have to be about the reproductive cycle of the onager or the War of 1812? - PNutHed 19:54, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Recreation of deleted material. I'm gonna speedy this. --Peephole 21:55, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
