Yeek[edit]
Non-notable fictional race with no out-of-universe content and no secondary sources to establish notability, as required by Wikipedia:Notability. Pagrashtak 20:24, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: This debate has been added to the list of video game deletions. Pagrashtak 20:24, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as it fails WP:FICTION Tavix (talk) 20:13, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nomination as non-notable cruft, if we're still using that word. --Lockley (talk) 21:30, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, as the article subject does not exist beyond its shared gameworlds in any meaningful fashion (lack of third-party coverage, and so on). Someone may also want to look at Quylthulg, which is of similar make-up. D. Brodale (talk) 19:40, 23 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Easily fails notability guidelines. But, consider that as they first appeared in Moria, yeeks are about 25 years old, and still present in modern roguelikes under active development. They are not notable or newsworthy. But it is just possible that one may stumble across the term and look it up.Feezo (Talk) 05:45, 24 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect and reduce to an entry in Angband (computer game)#Terminology. User:Krator (t c) 19:51, 24 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not sure that's a solid fit, as a Yeek isn't really a term (as applied within that section, phrases players use when discussing the game with other players), being a monster. If a merge seems reasonable, it should probably form a new section entirely. D. Brodale (talk) 03:44, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- True. My stance in this debate, is that 1) this subject is not worth of an article, but that 2) we should have information on what a "Yeek" is in Angband somewhere. User:Krator (t c) 13:47, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
