Boom! (Game)[edit]

Marcus Qwertyus 23:48, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Please this game is amazing. This is Wikipedia, a free and evolving encylopedia. Just because it's not huge yet doesn't mean it's not notable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cberra88 (talkcontribs) 23:56, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Restore article at this version then put it through an appropriate deletion process. I have no doubt that the underlying article is non-notable. However, RFD is not a substitute for normal deletion procedures - redirecting an article then immediately bringing it here for deletion is an inappropriate use of this forum.

  • *Restore article at this version Further more, I think the world needs to know about this game. I for one am tired of just Beer Pong. By having a wiki, you can spread the word faster, and others can enjoy it easier, as this page is simple and concise, the rules and info are very straightforward. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cberra88 (talkcontribs) 00:02, 30 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone searching for the wiki would not want to be redirected to the branch of Christianity. —Justin (koavf)TCM☯ 06:46, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - as confusing; not mentioned in any article; the present target is decidedly not helpful. I have notified the creator. Bridgeplayer (talk) 12:04, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete—not a relevant search term; confusing. Grondemar 17:34, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per BridgePlayer.--Lenticel (talk) 00:36, 30 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Social skill. JohnCD (talk) 17:21, 5 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It is possible to be socially awkward without having Asperger's Syndrome. I can't think of a good target for this redirect, so I recommend deleting. Grondemar 00:50, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as confusing -it doesn't appear in the target and, I agree, there is no other sensible retarget. Bridgeplayer (talk) 01:04, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nominator and Bridgeplayer. Perhaps the creator of the redirect could explain why he created it, and then maybe I'd understand. Soap 01:21, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Retarget to Deviance (sociology) or Delete as confusing--Lenticel (talk) 03:20, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The current redirect is inappropriate, and there doesn't seem to be a good target. (There surely ought to be an article on social awkwardness, but currently there isn't.) --Zundark (talk) 12:40, 4 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I've just noticed that Socially inept (which seems to mean more or less the same thing as socially awkward) redirects to Social skill. Is this a reasonable target? --Zundark (talk) 08:23, 5 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
