The result was redirect to List of video game exclusives (eighth generation) and various other places; someone might want to check I've put them all in the right place (I wasn't sure where the Xbox and PS2 ones should go). Black Kite (talk) 11:08, 22 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure why we have this page when we have List of video game exclusives (eighth generation) and List of PlayStation 4 games. I see List of Wii U exclusive titles was deleted for the same reasons I listed. WhereAmI (talk) 02:22, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If it's alright with everyone, can we blanket discuss deletion of these lists? I don't know how to do a multiple delete request if that's even possible. All of the information that these lists aim to provide are in similar articles of "List of <console> games."
Let me know if I need to make a separate request for each one. --WhereAmI (talk) 04:05, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete all except List of PS2 exclusive titles. These lists duplicate information found in their respective "list of [console] games" articles, and again in "list of video games exclusives (seventh/eighth generation)". I can't find the PS2 exclusivity info anywhere, though, so that list should stay until it can be merged into List of PS2 games.
WhereAmI: bundling nominations is fine, and I've added the Afd notice to each of the articles you mentioned. DoctorKubla (talk) 07:14, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or Redirect - We had a discussion about this at WP:VG and there was strong consensus that these articles are unnecessary/redundant to their parent articles - the ones that list all games for a system, since those articles can, and often do, have a column in them stating whether or not they are exclusive. See List of Wii U software on how a sortable column in the pre-existing articles can better document this in articles that already exist. Sergecross73 msg me 14:55, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect all as redundant, as previously discussed at WT:VG. Redirects are cheap. Merge the lists that need it (PS2). czar ♔ 01:41, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect all as redundant content forks and most of the articles are all woefully unfinished. Sorry but it seems the creator has hardly put any effort into many of these (List of Xbox exclusive titles, for example, has only one game listed). At the very least they should be userfied as it is inappropriate for them to remain in mainspace in their current state. Satellizer (´ ･ ω ･ `) 23:29, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all as redundant. While I agree with DoctorKubla that the exclusivity info needs adding to the main PS2 game list, I don't believe retaining this PS2 list is necessary in order to get that done. The PS2 has a massive library and number of exclusives compared to most consoles, so the 8 currently listed here doesn't scratch the surface.

  • Redirect all as somewhat plausible search terms, but clearly these lists as they are represent inferior duplications of information we have elsewhere. Lankiveil (speak to me) 11:20, 21 September 2014 (UTC).[reply]
