Czerka Corporation

I am not familiar with Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. If this corporation is important in the game, then the article should be expanded. Otherwise I would suggest it be deleted, or merged if the article is extended. -- Daniel Lawrence 15:56, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• Merge or keep fancruft. Kappa 16:07, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Merge fiction trivia per recent WP:FICT consensus. Even if "this corporation is important in the game" it is still just a minor something in a game that hasn't been culturally influential even though Star Wars somewhat has. Nothing article-worthy about this Lucascruft. I want StarWarsWiki to start so I can vote Transwiki to hundreds of these articles. Barno 17:16, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Apparently it's been started. I think it's not really taking off because everything that gets tranwikied there gets kept here for some ungodly reason,making it redundant. I think "wookiepedia" is a good idea and wish it would take over this sort of thing. To encourage this I will vote transwiki there, then merge or delete from here. -R. fiend 03:42, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Merge with Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. I'm on my second play-through of this game; Czerka Corporation is really only a minor part of the backstory. android↔talk 17:23, Mar 30, 2005 (UTC)
• Merge per WP:FICT. Radiant_* 17:26, Mar 30, 2005 (UTC)
• Merge, although the corporation is of slightly more importance in KOTORII Lectonar 10:49, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Neutral It's my self-styled policy not to give anyone a delete. But I can't for the life of me understand how the star wars universe gets such a free pass on Wikipedia. To invoke Pokemon as an example. I do nothing on this place but look at deleted articles to see if anybody is being a frivolous delete-happy choad and I see better content than this summarily being dismissed.

  • User was created today; he has only four edits not to vfds, two of them to his user page. —Korath (Talk) 04:37, Apr 1, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. I think this should be deleted, but if it should be merged, I would urge caution on how to do so. Czerka is not limited to KOTOR and merging and redirecting there would be silly. To create a real-world analogy, that would be like merging delorian into Back to the Future just becasue one was used in the movie. Indrian 00:16, Apr 2, 2005 (UTC)
  • Well, you seem to have more knowledge of the subject than I do... any ideas on a target for the merge? List of minor supporting Star Wars concepts? Where's Riffsyphon when you need 'im? android↔talk 00:26, Apr 2, 2005 (UTC)
    • Czerka is a personal weapons manufacturer that specializes in producing hold-out blasters. If redirected, it should be to something like List of Star Wars Corporations or an article on blaster technology in general or hold-out blasters specifically. There is already a category called Star Wars companies, and some of those shoud really be merged into said list as well. Freitek, Blastech, Sorosuub, etc. are really just footnotes in the Star Wars universe with very little material produced on them, essentially just samples of their products with little corporate history.

• Keep. Galaxy's third largest arms producer! This is as major as most Star Wars companies artices. If it isn't kept, there'll be room for it at at starwars.wikia.com:[1]-LtNOWIS 20:44, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)
