List of Participating Club Nintendo Australia Products[edit]

Non-notable and non-encyclopedic list of games. No reliable sources provided Mattinbgn\^talk 08:02, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Note This is a contested PROD. The stated reason for contesting was "This list should not be deleted as this is a list that people can refer to when looking for club nintendo compatible games in australia."

Hm. A lack of reliable sources is fixable, but notability is not. Notability is the general yardstick for measuring whether or not a topic should be included and calls for multiple, reliable outside references. The thing is closer to a stopgap measure than brilliant insight if you ask me, but this place does need some limits - for instance, a proposal to automatically add several million articles for places across the globe was shouted down because we'd never be able to maintain and unvandalize those.

I am writing like this for the author of the article so that we wikipedia editors won't come across as assholes. You can't really deny that there's a tendency for that.

Since there seems to be only a handful of Club Nintendo Australia games, wouldn't the given reason for contesting be served as least as well if the list was added to the Club Nintendo article, which already has a place for that? Since this article would then be redundant and would not be an useful search term, I say we do that and delete this. --Kiz o r 17:56, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. All the information is already contained in Club Nintendo, and it is not a useful redirect. Kevin (talk) 00:21, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Merge the few titles that aren't listed into Club Nintendo. Regardless of whatever policies and guidelines exist, I think the most useful outcome for wikipedia users is locating the small list inside the Club Nintendo article. Where the example size is small, it would seem most useful to users to list all the examples. I've seen this approach taken in other articles and I think it adds well to article so long as the list is not excessively long. I suppose we can cross the notability bridge when the list becomes larger. Icemotoboy (talk) 03:31, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Club Nintendo as mentioned above. MuZemike (talk) 08:04, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
