Unofficial UD News

Horribly misleading.--xoxo 02:38, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

  1. Delete - From orbit. -- Atticus Rex mfu pif Δ 06:28, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
  2. Speedy Delete - I think someone needs to pop over to the creator's talk page and tell him what he is doing wrong. Half of all pages on deletions now are his creations (Hagat's done it, but I might post some more information later.) Oh, and Hagant's comment explains why he made it. He is annoyed at the other News page. Linkthewindow  Talk  06:56, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
    Changed vote to Speedy Delete, as Hagnat. Linkthewindow  Talk  10:47, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
  3. Merge -- as a subpage of Zombie Emergency Management Whatever ... because it's THEIR news. --WanYao 07:27, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
  4. Speedy - the author itself thinks about asking the page to be deleted (see his user page) --People's Commissar Hagnat talk mod 10:45, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
    Thinking about it isn't in any of the criteria, unless he requests it somehow -- boxy talk • teh rulz 12:04 24 November 2008 (BST)
  5. Delete -- boxy talk • teh rulz 12:04 24 November 2008 (BST)
  6. Delete - With a nuke.--Drawde Talk To Me! DORIS Яed Яum Defend Ridleybonk! I know Nothing! 16:42, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

  8. Speedy its the only way to be sure. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 17:38, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
  9. Delete - Not quite sure why Soldier made that, but... yea, get rid of it. Its not even linked to our group page. -- Ωmega360 Small septagon.gifT 17:50, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
  10. Move and make it a subpage of ZEMA. --Pestolence(talk) 22:05, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

  • Speedily Deleted. 4 Speedies, no keeps. -- Cheese 21:32, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
    I wasn't sure about this, wouldn't move be an implicit keep because you still want the content kept on the wiki? Obviously it didn't matter in this case, but yeah.--xoxo 23:58, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Current Buildings of Stanbury Village

It just copies the Stanbury Village page...--Haliman - Talk 21:10, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

  1. Delete Doesn't copy the Stanbury Village page, but no-one seems to be updating it. Linkthewindow  Talk  21:27, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
    • Vote changed to Keep - as Midianian. Didn't notice the age. Linkthewindow  Talk  21:57, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
  1. Keep - From the looks of it, it's supposed to be an actively updated map of the current state of buildings, so no, it doesn't just copy it. It's two hours old, give it some time. It's not even finished yet! --Midianian Big Brother Diary Room: [521,21] 21:30, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
  2. Keep as mid. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 21:47, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Template:Saromu is gay Devil

Because shit like this is pathetic and needs killed with fire. -- Cheese 21:51, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

  1. Delete - As above. -- Cheese 21:51, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
  2. Delete - As Cheese. Wish there was a speedy crit. Linkthewindow  Talk  21:54, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
  3. Delete - How unclassy.--ScouterTX 22:18, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
  4. Delete - Crit 1? Anyway, homophobia's not good. :| --Janus talk 22:30, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
  5. Delete - Completely retarded, and needs to die now. --Pestolence(talk) 04:17, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
  6. Delete - I wish there were a vandalism/ban crit for this kinda of bullshit. WanYao 05:26, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Scheduled deletion -- Swearing in page titles - Pages that have swearing in the title that is directed at a user or group (or their actions). Approved 22 July 2008 --People's Commissar Hagnat talk mod 13:13, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

What swearing? Did you pull something stretching that ruling that far?--– Nubis NWO 19:36, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
My thoughts. Homophobia is bad, but it's not swearing... Linkthewindow  Talk  20:31, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
Since when has gay ever been swearing? I could say "ZOMGZ! Look at that gay little elf" or "ZOMGZ! Look at that gay little elf" both with slightly different meanings but neither is swearing. =/ That's why I didn't delete on impulse since it wasn't covered by any existing scheduled stuff. -- Cheese 20:56, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Nightmare Wings.jpg

Its a page with an image on it, it's name the same as the image. =/ Should be crit 1 but I thought I'd stick it here to be safe. -- Cheese 21:24, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

  1. Speedy - Critimication 1. -- Cheese 21:24, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
  2. Move to Nightmare Wings. He's trying to make a group page, and recruit people -- boxy talk • teh rulz 23:53 30 November 2008 (BST)
    Speedy - he's already created the group page, so this is a crit 1 -- boxy talk • teh rulz 02:08 2 December 2008 (BST)
  3. Move - As boxy. Just categorise the image and let it be. --WanYao 00:34, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
  4. (Speedy) Move - As Boxy. Linkthewindow  Talk  11:04, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Speedydeleted - crit 1 -- boxy talk • teh rulz 02:08 2 December 2008 (BST)

Fake Rape Screenshot

Image:2_copy.jpg

Rather bad fake rape screenshot, confirmed as a fake by the DEM and the DA. Also, no pages uses it. Again, some smear campaign by the same user (see http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Special:Contributions/Captain_Rickety) Delete. --ScouterTX 14:23, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete. --ScouterTX 14:33, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Various BMC pages

British_Military_Corps/Nav

British_Military_Corps/Zone

Radio_BMC

Our group no longer use these pages. - User:Whitehouse 21:03, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

  1. Delete - Requested to be deleted by the group is good enough for me. --Pestolence(talk) 22:08, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
  2. Speedy - Donno if there is a crit for this, but it's requested by author. Good enough for me. Linkthewindow  Talk  06:04, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
    There's a crit if the only editor of a page wants it deleted, theman seems to edit one of them (and did today) so i left a note on his talk page to find out.--xoxo 06:11, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
    Yeah, I know, Crit 1, but I'm not sure what to make of that when it comes to group pages. Linkthewindow  Talk  06:17, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
    Supposedly if the "group" wants it deleted, it goes. We've had problems with that before with rogue group members trying to get pages deleted thought.xoxo 06:20, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
  3. Delete - I just got notified of this. I guess if andre wants them gone, then yeah. He always knows what he is doing (unlike me who got scammed and lost 80 dollars recently :'( ) The man 17:04, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Malton Defense

Appears to be defunct; it was a redirect to Malton Defense Corporation, a now-disbanded group, and now is completely wiped, and linked to nowhere. --Pestolence(talk) 15:39, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Done.--Karekmaps?! 02:32, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

Stickling Mall IRC

The IRC channel it links to is defunct, and IRC links should be on the Urban Dead IRC Channels page.--Drawde Talk To Me! DORIS Яed Яum Defend Ridleybonk! I know Nothing! 12:48, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

  1. Critimication 1 - You can't really say much else about it and there is already a place for IRC links. They don't need their own page unless they are especially notable, which even then would be a stretch. -- Cheese 12:52, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
  2. Speedy--Nallan (Talk) 13:01, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Pker List

I don't even know where to start with this page. I'm shocked it's evaded deletion for this long. It's biased, it's community edited, it's... well, look for yourselves. It's crap. It's almost crap enough to be laughable, but it lacks even that capacity. Maybe we could move it to a trenchcoater subpage. --Blackboard 15:57, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

  1. Crit 1 - To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 16:00, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  2. Keep omg, not a pker list--THE Godfather of Яesensitized, Anime Sucks Yalk | W! U! WMM| CC CPFOAS DORISFlag.jpg LOE ZHU | Яezzens 16:11, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
    It's NOT a pker list... it's some misguided idiot's half-assed attempt at a pker list. There's no documentation, no criteria, nothing. I like being in the Rogues Gallery; however, it's an independent entity and does not have the "authority" of a peer-edited community page. If there IS to be an official pker list, I'm guessing there's going to be... shit, I don't know... probably like six or seven more people on there. Maybe eight, I'm not quite sure. Though I AM pretty sure your cousin Vic should be on there. What? Did I just reference your cousin Vic? Yeah, this page is that awesome. Don't get rid of it. It's lovely.-- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 13:44, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
  3. Keep - Maybe make it a redirect to Rogues Gallery? --ZsL 23:03, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  4. crit 1 --~~~~ [talk] 23:09, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  5. Keep Criteria 1 doesn't apply, as it could be expanded into some sort of anti-revive page or as a redirect to PK Reporting. --Akule Maker of fine, hand-crafted UDWiki sass since 2006 -- Akule School's back in session™ 00:32, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

  11. Redirect/Merge - As ZS, Akule, etc. Just make it a redirect to the RG page, or a redirect to PK Reporting. Linkthewindow Talk 09:33, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
  12. ^ - This. The page should not be a list in and of itself but rather a description of what pker lists are along with a few noteworthy ones.--Karekmaps?! 18:56, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
  13. Keep - and change to a page describing what a PKlist is, and how to make one in your user or group sub-page area -- boxy talk • teh rulz 21:59 7 November 2008 (BST)
    The idea of a PKer list is fairly straight forward and self explanatory...--xoxo 01:02, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
    But where to set up such pages on the wiki isn't. PK lists are totally POV, therefore each individual one should go somewhere where it's obvious whose PK list it is, and the best place for that is a group or alliance sub page -- boxy talk • teh rulz 00:28 20 November 2008 (BST)
  14. Keep - as Boxy, especially the group subpage part. -- Atticus Rex mfu pif Δ 06:55, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
  15. detele - worthless. --WanYao 12:33, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
  16. Keep - I like Boxy's idea. We could redirect Kill List into it as well as it comes up quite a lot. -- Cheese 18:50, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
  17. Delete - nup.--xoxo 01:02, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
  18. Keep and Redirect - to Rogues Gallery or PK Reporting. --Pestolence(talk) 01:32, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
  19. Keep and Redirect - As Pestolence.--Drawde Talk To Me! DORIS Яed Яum Defend Ridleybonk! I know Nothing! 11:40, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Kept - But narrowly (9 delete to 10 keep). I'll convert the page to a description of a Pker list and link to various related pages. -- Cheese 11:44, 22 November 2008 (UTC)


All saints day invasion

crit 1? Linked to nowhere. No evidence it actually happened. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 12:55, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

    Kill - I hate to be indecisive but I just changed my mind after reading it again =] DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 10:56, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
  6. Delete - I don't like it. It vaguely serves a purpose but the content is absolute junk. If someone wants to rewrite it, until then get rid of it.--xoxo 02:20, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

  9. Delete - Has anyone ever used this term in this sense? The antonym exists to distinguish mrh?cows from, y'know, zombies. The extra descriptor here is just redundant. -- Atticus Rex mfu pif Δ 07:07, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Example_Sign

Crit 3 - this is a redirect to Beer Cruzade. The page name doesn't make sense and it isn't shorter than the group name.--– Nubis NWO 03:14, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

Once the links to it are fixed up on this template, it can probably be speedydeleted as an unused redirect -- boxy talk • teh rulz 03:26 16 November 2008 (BST)
That template shouldn't be in the G Groups category either, by the way. I don't have the time right now to see if it should be more of an event or possibly B Groups. But that's another thing we will need to look at. --– Nubis NWO 18:25, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
  1. Speedy Delete- Just fixed the link (it was a dodgy piece of code,) and now nothing links to it. Linkthewindow  Talk  04:28, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

It's a redirect to User:Speels. Should be deleted as per these precedents: 1, 2, 3, 4. --Pestolence(talk) 20:49, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Suburb_Recruitment

I've already had this up for SD, but Boxy put a keep on it and then neglected to move it here.

I'd have this deleted under Crit 1, duplication of content. It's a recreation of Recruitment in a different format. I'd even say that it's bad faith, as it intentionally subverts the community consensus of the aforementioned page but unilaterally changing established guidelines by creating a copy of the page. This is no different to someone being duped or spammed on the suggestions system and then setting up their own 'Users Suggestions' page and not allowing spam or dupe votes.

The notion of reorganising the recruitment page has been discussed multiple times with no clear consensus being reached or even the author of this page actively participating. Changing a guideline on a community page requires discussion and consensus, the DEM are currently in this process attempting to correctly alter the page.

The page also has "Brought to you by The Gamer's Haven!" plastered across the top of it in a de facto attempt to establish authority over a page in the public space. At the very least this should be moved into that group's namespace on those grounds.

Either this or Recruitment needs deleting, there's no point in users putting work into one when another has a completely different set of guidelines and standards, it's just going to confuse the newbies and create wiki drama. It should be this page as Recruitment is already set up from the internal links and is easier to find, it is also the page with the established history of community consensus, not de facto claimed authority. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 09:33, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

  1. Speedy Delete - Crit 1. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 09:33, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
  2. Speedy Delete - As Iscariot. Ether way, the group could at least move it. It's bad faith. Linkthewindow Talk 10:15, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
    To clarify, I don't see a Recruitment page listed by suburb as such a bad idea (although the suburb pages already have the info,) it's more that a group has claimed ownership over a mainspace page. Linkthewindow Talk 05:22, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
  3. Keep - I saw this, personally i feel it's more useful than the existing recruitment page and could even replace the list of groups in a suburb in the right hand panel of each suburbs page. However if those two are gonna stay existing this could probably go.--xoxo 00:10, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
  4. Keep - This is a (potentially) immensely useful page. Recruiting by suburbs plays to the strengths of many small and local groups that would otherwise get lost in the shuffle. What's wrong with having recruiting groups be able to recruit in both ways? Get rid of the "brought to you by the gamer's haven" bit, put a link on the Recruitment page saying, "or, instead of looking alphabetically, here are some groups recruiting by surburb," and let it stay. (Also -- I'd say that every group that put an add there, and decided to use it, has already endorsed it and found it useful). --Jen 05:57, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
    All this page is going to do is cause drama. The content is duplicated on the suburbs pages with the active groups list (which thanks to the recent Suburbs Massacre is now accurate), if people are looking by suburbs their first point of call is the suburb page in question. This has been debated numerous times on Talk:Recruitment. The main point of this is the subversion of community consensus, it has no guidelines, it arbitraily removes the large groups rule (thereby invalidating months of good faith discussion by Whitehouse, myself and members of the DEM) and has no criteria for removal. Newbie A puts his ad on both pages, I remove it for one of any number of reasons, he doesn't get why = drama ensues. We've seen it before. This is no different to my example of creating a new suggestions system because you were upset over it being a dupe and killed accordingly. There's a reason we have only one of each of these types of systems on the wiki. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 10:20, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
    This is retarded. The page duplicates information found on the main recruitment page ***AND*** in the suburb group listings. You can click on the link for any group in a given suburb and read their blurb, which always includes recruitment information. While well intentioned this page is a confusing waste of disk space. Delete it already. [addedndum] or else delete the main recruitment page while keeping and expanding this: because THAT page is a terrible and useless mess. --WanYao 02:12, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
  5. Keep I happen to like the idea... It could use some work, but still. And Recruitment by itself is too good at what it does at a glance. Conndrakamod TAZM CFT 11:18, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
  6. Keep - No one seems to have contacted the guy before the page was put, first on a/sd, and now here, despite him posting on the recruitment talk page about it. Although I think that in it's current format, it would be a waste of time upkeeping both systems, I think the idea has merit, perhaps as a simple list page, where groups can provide a simple link to their existing recruitment page entry under the suburbs that they are active in -- boxy talk • teh rulz 13:00 29 October 2008 (BST)
  7. keep i prefer the split by suburbs... The page could do with a bit of work on its guidelines but i think if it can attract more attention then it will be a good and useful page.--Honestmistake 14:20, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
  8. Delete/Move I think every suburb should have its own recruitment page to avoid these incidents. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 07:06, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
  9. Keep - Needs work, as many have pointed out above, but still a useful resource. Possibly the posting guidelines should be standardized with those of the old Recruitment page, to the extent possible. Certainly the Gamer's Haven tag should go. But really, since recruit ads are all templates anyway, what's wrong with being able to use them on two recruitment pages? And added bonus: because of the one-suburb rule, there won't be any DEM ads on this one either. -- Atticus Rex mfu pif Δ 07:03, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

They said the group is still active and in transition. They know that we want to keep the clutter down and to post the pages when they have decided what they are doing. Why not wait a bit and let them get their shit together before we delete them? What happened to CRIT 12? This is a group subpage. I can't believe people are OK with subpages just being deleted.--– Nubis NWO 03:28, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

Level 4 header. What are you doing? It was voted to be speedily deleted and it should be deleted. It'll be very easy to recreate a page without any content. I'm deleting it again. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 03:32, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
Crit 1 doesn't make exceptions for group sub pages, and although some latitude should be given to pages with minimal content, a totally blank page, blank for 7 months, still clearly qualifies. If they decide to recreate the pages, then they can do it. It's not like any content is being lost -- boxy talk • teh rulz 09:12 14 November 2008 (BST)
isn't there some rule against creating pages that were speedy deleted?? or is that only restoring them in a capacity identical to their previous capacity??--xoxo 13:28, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
Crit 6, however is is superseded by undeletion requests and this, quite frankly, is ridiculous, it's the kind of request that should be served and followed up on. The group leader says the pages are active the pages stay and we pester him to hurry up and add the content that will be there or redelete them a decent amount of time after the undeletion request. That is all.--Karekmaps?! 16:12, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
Crit 6 wouldn't apply here, unless they recreated pages that were eligible for speedydeletion again. Notice the "the page is a duplicate of a page that has been deleted from a previous deletion request". If the page is a duplicate, in content or intent, to one that was deleted before, it gets trashed on sight, but no sysop should bother if they recreated the pages with content on them. They've had over a week to use the pages, and they don't list them as active (above), so... gorn -- boxy talk • teh rulz 21:19 14 November 2008 (BST)

    No, they shouldn't, for the same reason why Midianian's link/vote is ridiculous; It's a category full of pages(a portal) and it's easier on everyone if it is left the way it is. If someone is looking for similar/related games it is a player resource to provide that information and nothing good comes of changing the way they are now to make it harder on the players/users, if Kevan had issue with it he would have dealt with it(if he doesn't know inform him to see if he does).--Karekmaps?! 19:13, 21 October 2008 (BST)

    My main argument is that it's not serving a purpose in having an entire page devoted to it. This is because it's not a game created by Kevan and because the page is in total disarray. I don't think it's attracting any users from the game either and I don't think we have many people from the wiki joining Cities because of the page.--SirArgo Talk 04:53, 22 October 2008 (BST)
    Yeh it is an ugly page but it's more the principle, why go about deleting links to related games communities outside this network? Why denude the network? As for traffic, well this deletions thread is advertising the page and Cities nicely, I'd bet there's a couple of UD players signed up there already to check it out.

  15. Not Voting; biased - Hi, I'm the lead developer of cities, and I'd rather be friendly. We've picked up a few players over the years from this wiki, and are happy to cross pollinate. In the interests of friendlyness, I've knocked up http://wiki.cities.totl.net/index.php/Influences on our wiki (not yet linked in, but will be soon), to give fair and due props to urban dead. Cities is a friendly little cul-de-sac of a game, with only about 500 active users. It's run completely for fun and all costs are absorbed by the admins. It's probably distinctive in MMORPGs that it has more type of object than players. Over 1800 types of item last time I checked. I would appreciate the link remaining, as we tend to get a few quiet types who drift over when zombie apocalypse gets to much and they want a quiet, cheery sort of game. So I'd urge you to vote to keep the link, as it helps our community, and doesn't hurt yours. And the page is linked from, Category:Related_Games, which is a link from your wiki frontpage. To be honest, I can't see any reason not to merge it, as it's clearly another "inspired by", probably the oldest as urban dead was very new when I started on cities. If you want the stats, we recently celebrated the 3rd anniversary of leaving beta, and have 9843 registerd accounts of which about 500 played in the last week. The code-base stands at around 145,000 lines of code. And we've raised over 1000 pounds for charity by selling various boons and items.
