Moria (StarCraft)[edit]

An extremely minor location in the Starcraft universe and therefore trivial fancruft. Also, and someone can correct me if I am wrong, I believe this is essentially all the information that exists on this location so that this stub does not have any potential to grow and become encyclopedic.

  • Keep. *sigh* *takes a deep breath* Are you aware that it was in Moria that James Raynor and Fenix located all the resources for the uprising of Kerrigan? Are you aware of how powerful is the colony of Moria in the Terran Confederacy? Are you aware that it was on Moria that the Argo spaceship crashed on? Are you aware that Moria is one of the original three Terran colonies? Are you aware that Moria formed part of the Kel-Morian Combine in order to supply military aid since they were the richest around the Terrans? Please, please, please, please for the love of God, Jesuschrist, Buddha, and Allah, research before even thinking about listing something on VfD. How dare do you refer to it as a minor location? How dare do you say it is *trivial* fancruft? Man, either play the game, read the books, or RTFM. Joseph | Talk 08:06, Dec 5, 2004 (UTC)
    • Let's see, to answer your questions: no, no, no, no, and no. And do you know why most of us don't know this? Because to do so you'd have to be an obsessed fan, which basically makes this fancruft. Play the games, read the books, or even read the fucking manual, but don't pretend it's encyclopedic information. (And I always thought Larry Groznic was a fictional character.)

      • I have never read Harry Potter and have never seen any of the movies. However, I do know that Harry is an orphan. Wanna know how do I know it? Wikipedia. According to you we should delete Harry Potter also since I don't know about it and to know about him you have to be a fan. Your logic has failed, miserably. Joseph | Talk 02:27, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)
        • You needn't be an obsessed fanatic to know Harry Potter is an orphan. Harry Potter is substantially more notable than a planet in the Starcraft universe, even (if you can believe it) one that " the Argo spaceship crashed on". As for minute details on the Harry Potter books, well, they should probably meet much the same fate as Moria (Starcraft). -R. fiend 05:06, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. And if you want me to change my vote, bringing this article up to encyclopedic standards is more likely to do it than berating people for not being experts on a particular fictional universe. JRM 13:44, 2004 Dec 5 (UTC)
  • Merge with StarCraft if it is considered significant (it doesn't seem to be mentioned at all in the main article, which is odd if it's really that significant). Delete anyhow. --[[User:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway|Talk]] 14:46, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: If you care about this, you're playing the game. If you're playing the game, you can RTFM. If you can RTFM, you're not looking for an encyclopedia to tell you the same thing. Foghat. Geogre 15:09, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • Ahh, you see, the problem is that I'm not playing the game, but rather reading the books. =) From now on, lets delete everything told in books and written in Wikipedia also, right? Joseph | Talk 02:27, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)
  • If this should be kept it should be merged with Koprulu Sector which isn't as much fancruft as this. No reason to give planets in that sector separate articles. Jeltz 18:07, 2004 Dec 5 (UTC)
  • Merge, else Delete. Wiki is not a gaming manual. Wyss 19:19, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • Lore/story is different from a gaming manual sir! Joseph | Talk 02:27, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge/Delete. Andre (talk) 20:07, Dec 5, 2004 (UTC)
  • A short article that could perhaps be properly merged somewhere. I don't know enough to say where. If not merged, keep it. Also keep if significantly expanded in the next few days. Everyking 20:42, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect. -Sean Curtin 23:20, Dec 5, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Mark Richards 01:46, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. StarCraft fancruft. — A.M. 03:09, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge with Starcruft or something. It's not like it will take up a lot of space. 66.81.67.81 04:35, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC) EDIT this was me, was logged out for some reason. Apologies Sabine's Sunbird 04:36, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • I want to say merge, but it's going to have to be Delete. There's far too much StarCruft kicking around (Zerg#Strategies belongs on GameFAQs, not Wikipedia), and since past experience (see List of Warcraft characters, and Sylvanas Windrunner in particular) has shown that User:Joseph Dwayne will simply ignore and revert any merge consensus, let's just lose the information altogether. Then when Joseph recreates it we can speedy it out. I don't mean for this to be a personal vendetta against Joseph, but I just don't see the need for this volume of defence for something of interest only to the hardest of the hardcore. Hell, I play StarCraft, and I don't need to know anything as trivial as this entry. Kinitawowi 10:55, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)
    • <boggle> You mean to say all this tosh is about a bloody game? I assumed it had to be one of those ultra-long sub-Tolkien novels where the elves all have laser pistols. --[[User:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway|Talk]] 11:44, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge. Then delete without redirection. [[User:GRider|GRider\talk]] 17:48, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. If you don't hear about things from a series outside of people who are serious fans of the series, then they're generally not notable. --Improv 20:10, 8 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • If people know everything, they generally don't need an encyclopedia. I'm torn between merge and keep, but my vote is keep. There is no namespace conflict here and the article has room for expansion. I've asked Joseph to expand the article, since he seems to know so much on the topic. Remember, fiction is valid. --L33tminion | (talk) 18:59, Dec 10, 2004 (UTC)
