21 February 2006
Age of imperialism (Defuniak) (add to this discussion)
Procedural nomination - put up for deletion by User:Macabees. Personally, I'd say delete as nonsense. Gruen2alk 01:31, 21 February 2006 (GMT)
The author did not give the date of when this particular era. --Constantina 14:34, 2 March 2006 (GMT)
I'd say contact the author and ask what he intends to do with this. Ceo \ rant \ rave 02:11, 16 March 2006 (GMT)
The author was anonymous, and under that IP made only this single contribution. Nothing links here (nor to the redirect page), and there is no Defuniak article. The nation Defuniak doesn't exist (or no longer exists). This article looks a lot like nonsense. Seems like a valid candidate for deletion. Aridd 02:10, 7 November 2006 (GMT)
24 March 2006
NATO Council of Twelve (add to this discussion)
Vote for Deletion:
I propose the information on this page be merged, and this deleted: on its own, this is too small and incoherent an article to stand in its own right. ~Gruen2 17:51, 24 March 2006 (GMT)
14 April 2006
Template:Qif (add to this discussion)
I'm putting this up for deletion because it doesn't seem to work, NSwiki does not have the templates it references, and I don't think we even have the software capability to use it. Ceo \ rant \ rave 02:34, 14 April 2006 (GMT)
- I suggest contacting the author, and seeing what they were doing. But yeah, delete otherwise. ~Gruen2 05:23, 30 April 2006 (GMT)
30 April 2006
Ad Infinitum (add to this discussion)
The Hall of Ex-Nations suggests this is an ex-nation, possibly of note, but the material on the page does nothing to suggest so. Unless content is added, delete as rubbish. ~Gruen2 05:32, 30 April 2006 (GMT)
- Agreed. Delete as nonsense. Aridd 23:17, 1 October 2006 (GMT)
- Delete as complete rubbish --swilatia 19:36, 23 October 2006 (GMT)
Arab-Egypt Embassy (add to this discussion)
I'd like to raise the issue of these sort of pages. Puppets, the sole point of which is to act as a puppet in this function, surely do not merit whole pages to themselves.
What do we think about making a new policy on this? Perhaps such pages should only be made if the nation in question has attained such noteworthy gameplay/RP status?
Oh, and delete whatever. ~Gruen2 09:21, 30 April 2006 (GMT)
- Either delete, or merge into Arab League. And yes, agreed. Aridd 02:05, 7 November 2006 (GMT)
1 May 2006
Ben Seidman (add to this discussion)
This page was blanked by its sole content contributor, and is about an ex-nation. I would suggest the blanking implied a wish for deletion, and it has not been edited in a year. ~Gruen2 10:34, 1 May 2006 (GMT)
Choose wisely..... (add to this discussion)
I don't object to this article in itself, but simply documenting who posted in a General forum thread is a very dangerous precedent, and could really clog the Wiki. So I'd like to set a new precedent: we delete this sort of stuff. ~Gruen2 22:44, 1 May 2006 (GMT)
- Agreed, pointless article about something total irrelevant, should be deleted to free up some space.United Island Empires 08:33, 1 June 2006 (GMT)
- Its even in the spam forum now. we do not need articles about threads there, so I say Delete. --swilatia 05:51, 5 July 2006 (GMT)
Constitutional (add to this discussion)
As no content has been added, I see no reason to retain this. ~Gruen2 23:05, 1 May 2006 (GMT)
- Agreed. Aridd 23:16, 1 October 2006 (GMT)
- Concur. Ceoranta 00:15, 2 October 2006 (GMT)
- Agreed. --swilatia 18:46, 2 October 2006 (GMT)
2 May 2006
Events (add to this discussion)
NSwiki is not a place for a pseudo-forum, private page, or newspaper. It is an encyclopedia, not a place where you can do what you want. Therefore, I nominate for deletion. Ceo \ rant \ rave 02:52, 3 May 2006 (GMT)
Sorry
We're sorry about this, but our forum went down and we needed somewhere to talk. We've got a new one up and running so it won't be a problem.
- Does this mean this article can be deleted now? Aridd 22:34, 21 June 2006 (GMT)
10 May 2006
Roman Marines (add to this discussion)
Can you explain your reasons for this suggested deletion? It seems to me that somebody went to quite a bit of effort on this article. --Pantocratoria 04:55, 11 May 2006 (GMT)
Well, I thought I could name my Marine Corps to Roman Marines. But I decided to keep the name Roman Marine Corps. I don't need it anymore, because I'm not going to use it at all and it will waste server space. I pretty much made the mistake of making this page. I should have thought about it longer before making this page. -- Roman Republic 13:52, 11 May 2006 (GMT)
- That would appear to make it a candidate for speedy deletion. Are there any objections to it being deleted? Aridd 23:15, 1 October 2006 (GMT)
- No, delete. --Pantocratoria 04:38, 2 October 2006 (GMT)
- Redirected to Roman Marine Corps. ~Gruen2alk 14:29, 31 October 2006 (GMT)
- No, delete. --Pantocratoria 04:38, 2 October 2006 (GMT)
17 May 2006
Hurricanes (add to this discussion)
Deletion discussion
This discussion is now closed. The article was deleted by Goobergunch on 2 July 2006, with consensus to delete achieved. The debate below serves as a record and should not be edited, as it is no longer live.
There have been some natural disasters in NS. Nonetheless, if no one can add anything, we may as well {{inclusion}} tag it.Gruen2alk 23:25, 26 October 2005 (GMT)
- This article is awful. I considered trying to clean it up, but essentially it says nothing at all. Even if I re-work what it says, there'll be little or no point to it. I've added an {{inclusion}} tag. Aridd 19:11, 17 May 2006 (GMT)
- Delete. ~Gruen2 21:59, 17 May 2006 (GMT)
28 June 2006
Karock (add to this discussion)
I started this page on behalf of another nation in my region. I invited them to update the page but they have shown no interest. I am now aware of NSwiki policy on starting pages for other nations. willd 13:17 GMT 28/06/06
Sensational. The real Karock has re-started this page. willd 23:15 GMT 14/07/06
7 July 2006
News Media (add to this discussion)
The title of this article is uninformative, especially when the media category contents page is viewed. The article has been moved to Errinundera News Media along with all the links. willd 12:14 GMT 7 July 2006
Consumer Engineering (add to this discussion)
This is a puppet nation of Errinundera and there is no point having its own article. There is an Errinundera puppet factbook that is more than adequate for the task. willd 13:09 GMT 7 July 2006
12 July 2006
Kedalfaxian (add to this discussion)
The reason that I want this page deleted is that I made the language for my nation and heve since decided not to use it. There's not really a reason to keep it. User:Kedalfax
14 July 2006
Laueria (add to this discussion)
Defunct nation; empty article; does not link to anything specific to this nation; nothing links here except one language article (Mongolian). Seems like a candidate for deletion. Aridd 13:55, 14 July 2006 (GMT)
None (add to this discussion)
While there may have been half a dozen links to this page, I think the wiki would have been better served unlinking the links rather than creating this relatively useless article. → Fris Θtalk 04:59, 7 Feb 2005 (GMT)
- Agreed. This article seems needless to me. It can be replaced by footnotes in the articles that link to it. Aridd 16:11, 13 May 2006 (GMT)
I've checked the link in the article, and the "What links here" page. The link is specific to a region apparently called Muppet Show - which now has a delegate, and doesn't even link to the None page any more! All the pages which link here consequently send readers to a page which has nothing to do with the page they're coming from. It's utterly ridiculous, and if no-one objects I'll be deleting this as nonsense. Aridd 12:05, 7 November 2006 (GMT)
16 July 2006
MIRC Crew (add to this discussion)
Inclusion
Is this really something that needs to be in the wiki? I can't see much point to it, personally, and fail to see what it has to do with NationStates or roleplaying at all beyond that the "crew" is made up of players. Nightbane 21:18, 16 July 2006 (GMT)
- -Totally- necessary. Shows exactly how leet we are :P Aralonia 20:30, 25 July 2006 (GMT)
- It also provides information about the Draftroom IRC Channel and what matters are discussed in it. Skinny87 15:50, 26 July 2006 (GMT)
- The Draftroom IRC channel isn't mentioned once in the article, and if you really need to discuss its IRC channel then you should add that information to The NS Draftroom. At the moment this article is little more than a listing of friends, and has absolutely no encyclopedic value. Nightbane 17:20, 26 July 2006 (GMT)
- "The mIRC crew meets primarily on The NS Draftroom 'formal' IRC chat." Totally mentioned. Aralonia 18:49, 26 July 2006 (GMT)
- And yet there is little data pertaining to the chatroom itself. This article has only a loose connection to the Draftroom and its IRC channel at best. If the information on this page must be included, I suggest adding it to The NS Draftroom Nightbane 17:54, 26 July 2006 (GMT)
- "The mIRC crew meets primarily on The NS Draftroom 'formal' IRC chat." Totally mentioned. Aralonia 18:49, 26 July 2006 (GMT)
- The Draftroom IRC channel isn't mentioned once in the article, and if you really need to discuss its IRC channel then you should add that information to The NS Draftroom. At the moment this article is little more than a listing of friends, and has absolutely no encyclopedic value. Nightbane 17:20, 26 July 2006 (GMT)
- It also provides information about the Draftroom IRC Channel and what matters are discussed in it. Skinny87 15:50, 26 July 2006 (GMT)
Someone was also in the process of cleaning the article up whern it was locked. Skinny87 18:52, 26 July 2006 (GMT)
- Perhaps you should have thought about cleaning up the article before you started an edit war. Nightbane 17:54, 26 July 2006 (GMT)
Without wishing to be nasty, you did start this. The article would have been cleaned up - and was in the process of being done so - when it was locked due to what you started. Why not just let it be sorted out and leave it alone from now on? Skinny87 18:58, 26 July 2006 (GMT)
I'm assuming the above was resolved. Inclusion tag removed. ~Gruen2alk 14:34, 31 October 2006 (GMT)

Governments (add to this discussion)
I don't think we need this and UN Category. Also, it's slightly misleading to call it "Governments". The UN category is defined by (d'uh) the UN, and doesn't actually say what kind of government it is (in the sense of whether it's a multi-party republic, a constitutional monarchy, a parliamentary one-party theocratic republic or whatever). Aridd 10:09, 19 July 2006 (GMT)
- One thing this article includes is a few links to more detailed articles on specific UN Categories. In general, I agree with you, but I'd like to suggestion we add links in the UN Category article to those more specific articles. Mikitivity 15:50, 19 July 2006 (GMT)
- Done. I've added links (in UN Category) to government types, and to the only article on a UN Category (New York Times Democracy). Aridd 16:13, 19 July 2006 (GMT)
Now that's done, is there any reason to keep this article? Aridd 23:10, 1 October 2006 (GMT)
- No. ~Gruen2alk 14:35, 31 October 2006 (GMT)
- If there are no further comments and no objections, I'll delete shortly. Aridd 12:07, 7 November 2006 (GMT)
24 August 2006
NSmdb (add to this discussion)
This article seems rather redundant, since we've also got Motion Pictures of NS. And "NSmdb" isn't as clear as a title for an article. Aridd 16:43, 24 August 2006 (GMT)
I agree. Antrium 21:29, 26 October 2006 (GMT)
11 September 2006
Template:Inforbox Nation (add to this discussion)
Whatever this is supposed to be, it's not working and it doesn't seem necessary. Not to mention the title. (And no, I don't know why the inclusion tag appears twice; if you click on Edit you'll see I only entered it one.) Aridd 13:20, 11 September 2006 (GMT)
- because its a self-refencing template. this is a misguided attempt at using th nation infobox. I say delete. --swilatia 19:44, 27 September 2006 (GMT)
12 September 2006
NS Doomsday Clock (add to this discussion)
Would the author of this article please include some text to explain what this is? Every NS wiki article should be understandable on its own. Aridd 12:48, 10 September 2006 (GMT)
I've added an inclusion tag, to see whether other people think this article should remain as is (i.e., without any explanation). If some explanation is provided, or if there's consensus about leaving it as is, the tag can be removed. Aridd 10:16, 12 September 2006 (GMT)
I'm the author. This page goes along with the thread in the NS forums: [1]. It is still a work in progress, as I haven't had time to write up anything for it, though, if you look, you'll see what is there (at the above link) corolates perfectly with the other discusion. I was planning on writing up why i made it, what its purpose was, and some histroy on the rl doosday clock. I made this page on recommendation from the forum so the NS doomsday clock could have a more solid home that wasn't suseptable to deletion by inactivity. I hope this clears up everything, I plan on finishing it this weekend.
- Ah, OK. Fair enough. Aridd 22:41, 12 September 2006 (GMT)
Take me out of "Candidates for Deletion"
I have completed the article and clearly no longer belong in this category. Please remove my article to its proper place and remove the inclusion tag.
Keep it.
This is a very informative article. This shows the NS world just how close we are coming to a complete nuclear winter. That's just what I think...
Asgarnieu 01:57, 29 September 2006 (GMT)
Agreed. It's now a proper article. I'm removing the inclusion tag. If anyone disagrees, feel free to put it back. Aridd 10:20, 29 September 2006 (GMT)
