Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Quartetarian

Quartetarian was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was

Quartetarian

The article itself admits there is only one (terrestrial) member of this 'organisation', and a quick google search produces two sites that mention it: an ezboard and a free-access webhost. Non-notable, non-encyclopaedic, and most likely very marginal. Ziggurat 01:59, Nov 2, 2004 (UTC)

• Joke article. Delete and BJAODN, if desired. --Slowking Man 03:32, Nov 2, 2004 (UTC)
• Delete nonsense. Gazpacho 06:47, 2 Nov 2004 (UTC)
• Delete Krupo 07:31, Nov 2, 2004 (UTC)
• Delete: Tinfoil hattery: delete also all of those blue links, and there are a lot of them. I speedied, earlier, an article someone marked that was about a quartetarian cat. Someone has been very busy. Geogre 13:17, 2 Nov 2004 (UTC)
• Del. Patent nonsense, a BJAODN candidate. Delete. - Mike Rosoft 16:17, 2 Nov 2004 (UTC)
• Hey, it's not that bad it needs deleting!

1. For a start, it is NOT a joke article. The subject of the Quartet and the False Sequel is a controversial subject fiercely debated on PS boards. Even if it can't have its own article it should be mentioned in the Phantasy Star section.
2. Secondly, it is not nonsense. It makes perfect sense.
3. Thirdly, there is nothing wrong with an organisation having members on other planets and nothing wrong with them having a representative on this one.
4. Fourthly, not all Quartetarian activities can be located on Google.
5. Fifthly, Dugn is a musk cat not a cat.

• Joke or severely disordered mind, since "Dugn" does not appear in any revision of the article, nor elsewhere in the VfD discussion, and "cat" appears only in the name-space tag "Category". --Jerzy(t) 03:42, 2004 Nov 7 (UTC)

Dugn refers to a related one sentence article about an Algol musk cat, which was speedied. Ziggurat 04:29, Nov 7, 2004 (UTC)

• Cmt. Looks like nonsense to me. As is, it has no encyclopedic potential. --L33tminion | (talk) 19:41, Nov 5, 2004 (UTC)
• I see some valid points. It's not spam or a joke, so leave it be.

I view this as vastly resourceful to those who take part in the discussion of Phantasy Star. It represents a view point of a group of people, not excluding those who are not Quartetarian. And, as said before, it is not spam or a joke.

[The above unsigned 'graph, which claims to be by the author of the immediately preceding unsigned entry, is by User:142.165.111.64 (1 edit) and of course still not a valid vote. --Jerzy(t) 03:42, 2004 Nov 7 (UTC)]

I struck out my own text within the 'graph just above: i carelessly misread "...as I said" while the actual text is "...as said", and apologize for this negligence on my part. --Jerzy(t) 03:48, 2004 Nov 7 (UTC)

• Del. Nonsense, or what is slightly different, a delusion. Neither is encyclopedic. (Hunt down and remove any references to Q'ians in other articles.) --Jerzy(t) 03:42, 2004 Nov 7 (UTC)
• Delete. Joke by anon. Andrewa 00:39, 8 Nov 2004 (UTC)
