List of enemies in Doom
- List of enemies in Doom (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)
This is a list made up of game guide material that does not assert notablity by having real world information from reliable sources. TTN (talk) 14:55, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Agree with nom. This is non-encyclopedic gameplay content that should be transwikied to the Doom wikia. No out-of-universe content. Eusebeus (talk) 16:30, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Sad that someone spent so much time on copying the most uninteresting parts of the game guides into an article. With no illustrations, it's kind of like a narrative description of the paintings in the Louvre. If you play DOOM, you don't need this description. If you want to know something worthwhile, iddqd and idkfa. Mandsford (talk) 17:04, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete as most lists of enemies are not encyclopedic. Marlith T/C 19:35, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, I'd like it to be cut down a bit, but this list is mildly acceptable for me. Are there other list of x characters in doom articles? I can't find them if there are. If there are, we should just merge all of them into one, with it much cut down. But my comment isn't a very strong support of keep. I (talk) 19:54, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete: Clearly violates WP:N. Could never be turned into an encyclopaedic article. Ashnard Talk Contribs 22:07, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - Some of the most iconic characters in video games. We have a character development section at Making_of_Doom#Graphics, which could be merged into the enemy list and expanded. You can easily pull some reception sections from reviews such as Eurogamer, who state that "there's something incredibly stylish about the character design". It might be worthwhile merging this with List of enemies in Doom 3, which could easily be bolstered with The Making of Doom 3 (ISBN 0072230525). I cannot fathom how Dmitrii Blinov from Featured Article Candidate Characters in Castlevania: Sorrow series is considered more notable than the cyberdemon.- hahnchen 22:45, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - Cyberdemon used to be its own article, until it was turned into a redirect to this page. I would recommend undoing the redirect if this article is deleted. Ben Standeven (talk) 04:29, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Transwiki to one of the gaming wikis. - Koweja (talk) 18:14, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
