List of ships in the FreeSpace universe[edit]
Just a long list of redlinks and some original research paragraphs regarding how people tend to use the ships. Delete as unenecyclopedic and unnecessary. Wickethewok 06:39, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- keep redlinks aren't grounds for deletion. Sections of original research can be removed without having to remove a whole article. "Unencyclopedic" is silly. This doesn't really qualify as listcruft, as it's organized and non-arbitrary means of listing. "unnecessary" simply depends on who's looking it up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ikanreed (talk • contribs)
- Comment Given that this is an encyclopedia, I think "unencyclopedic" is perfectly valid.–♥ «Charles A. L.» 20:19, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete lists with a few red links are one thing, but this is nothing but. It's also essentially a game guide, and totally useless to anyone not familiar with the storyline. Opabinia regalis 07:38, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. I'm a fan of the Freespace games, but I just can't figure out why I would want to look this up in an encyclopedia (as opposed to a gaming wiki). Granted, it isn't really that much worse than, say, a list of Pokemon by name. However, consider that it's a list of fictional ships which aren't individually notable outside of the very narrow game context. Sorry, I'm inclined to recommend deletion. --Alan Au 08:06, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per WP:NOT, game guide. Many of the red links were created as a result of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/GTF Apollo, which succeeded because, like this article, it is completely filled with game guide information that's only informative for players of the game.
