List of maps in Company of Heroes[edit]

Gamecruft at best, provides no useful information to the reader and appears to simply duplicate material from the game manual. Per WP:NOT, Wikipedia is not a collection of such information. Daveydw ee b (^chat/_patch) 05:01, 18 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete gamecruft. I think it's pretty funny that there is a "please expand" tag on it! he he he. I'm sure people attacking the expand backlog are real happy to get that sort of stuff. Pascal.Tesson 07:12, 18 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. And aren't the illustrations copyvios? BTLizard 12:31, 18 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep if other games can have it, dont see why it hurts CoH (Example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_maps_in_Battlefield_2 8:33, 18 September 2006 (UTC) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.127.136.104 (talk • contribs) .
- Other notable games. This game has been out for a week - in what way is it notable? Personally, I think the article you linked to should be deleted as well, and will be considering its nomination when I have the time. Daveydw ee b (^chat/_patch) 12:43, 18 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Wikipedia is not a game manual, and this article is certainly one. Text is probably a copvio as well. Wickethewok 23:48, 18 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per the above commentary found in "delete" votes. --physicq210 01:35, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above. Wryspy 19:03, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete No reason to keep this, esp when there is a fan wiki version of it. --Karafias 04:21, 20 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. A list of maps isn't a game manual. WP:NOT says "This includes tutorials, walk-throughs, instruction manuals, video game guides, and recipes." This article is none of the above. And Wikipedia is not paper. Pixelface 00:05, 22 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I think you need to take a look at the useful information that such an article as this can provide. It can either provide information on how the maps should be played (game-guide), or some information about the maps themselves: their history, significance, and so on. An example of notable, important maps that deserve their own article is at Counter-Strike maps: that article provides wider notes on the actual importance of its subject matter, which itself is important. In what way do these maps meet the same standard of notability? What useful information can this article provide to the reader, since it's currently just a replication of apparently copyrighted material?

- Use some common sense. If they don't want tutorials, walkthroughs, instruction manuals or video game guides, why would they want a list of maps? Recury 13:28, 22 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
