The result was Merge to The Game (rapper) (unsurprisingly), and since it has already been done I shall redirect it. Yomanganitalk 11:22, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- G-Unot (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
This is already covered in greater detail (with sources) at The Game (rapper) L0b0t 17:34, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per my nom., While somewhat notable, this is all covered in greater detail with sourcing at The Game (rapper), there is no need for a seperate article here. L0b0t 17:34, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep it is a relevant boycott of the rap group. It's frequently used. LILVOKA 17:29, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment, yes it is relevant, but it is already covered in greater detail with proper sourcing at The Game (rapper). No need to merge (the info is already there), just delete this poorly written, unsourced article. L0b0t 17:59, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- When you see duplicate articles, that cover a subject that is "already covered in greater detail" in another article, your first port of call should be Wikipedia:Duplicate articles, not AFD, especially not AFD for the second time. The article already had a merge notice on it at the time of nomination. The nominator should have done the merger instead of bringing this to AFD. Uncle G 18:10, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks Uncle G. I did not know about Wikipedia:Duplicate articles. I went the AfD route rather than merge as the article to merge into covers this subject better that the article to be merged. Cheers. L0b0t 18:19, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- The merger notice itself links to that page. And that the target covers the subject better just means that steps #2 and #5 of the article merger process can be omitted. It does not mean that one should switch to AFD. Article merger does not involve deletion at any stage, even if the entire content of the article is duplicated.

- Keep per Lilvoka FirefoxMan 19:56, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Again, please see The Game (rapper), where this topic is already covered in greater detail with some proper sourcing. This is a discussion, not a vote. Do you have a reason for keeping this article other than "per LILVOKA"? L0b0t 19:59, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Well known to hip-hop fans and has to do with one of the biggest hip-hop acts today (G-Unit and The Game). Just needs some clean up. --Ted87 23:17, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Again, I would like to invite all to check out The Game (rapper), where everything this article tries to cover is already covered in greater detail with sourcing. Just delete this page and make G-Unot redirect to The Game (rapper). This article should not exist, it just duplicates something poorly from another article. L0b0t 14:32, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I monitor The Game article very closly and have read it several times over. The problem I have with merging is that The Game (rapper) is already being crowded with information regarding his feuds, and it doesn't really need more info. I'd rather this article be deleted then merged. --Ted87 19:32, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I also monitor the article; I believe that the information in the G-Unot article could be cleaned-up and easily merged with similar/identical information in the 50 Cent and G-Unit section; it might add two to three small paragraphs to The Game article. The G-Unot article already reads out of context, as if it's a section ripped from a more informative article; merging solves that problem. -- weirdoactor t|c 19:44, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge with The Game (rapper), to the extent which any information in this article is NOT in The Game's article. L0b0t is correct. -- weirdoactor t|c 18:04, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge per L0b0t--Thomas.macmillan 18:54, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to The Game (rapper). Sheesh. -- The Anome 12:19, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Seeing how this looks like it will be deleted/merged, I too the liberty of adding all the relevant info to The Game article. --Ted87 20:52, 19 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
