  • Deleat, spam. [[User:GRider|GRider\talk]] 22:11, 20 Dec 2004 (UTC)

  • Speedy Delete as spam (which qualifies as vandalism). Wyss 23:21, 20 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • del. Why spam? Plenty of compu games articles here. It is simply non-notable. No reason to throw bricks into faces. Mikkalai 01:06, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • It's advertising with no contextual, encyclopedic or informational value. That's spam, and that qualifies as vandalism. Wyss 01:13, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)
      • Spam is deletable but "spam" does not equal vandalism in the very specific way we use that term. Redirect as recommended below. Rossami (talk) 05:03, 22 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Actually spam is included there as a form of vandalism. Wyss 04:05, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • For the record, this is what the article Gravytris says, in full, verbatim: "Gravytris is a modern implementation of Tetris. Best of it all, it's freeware. You may download Gravytris at it's homepage: www.gravytris.tk". If that isn't spam I don't know what is. A redirect is fine, but there is nothing worth merging here.

  • Merge/redirect (without screenshot) to List of freeware games Redirect to Tetris Kappa 04:44, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Strong merge the external link to Tetris, where Gravytris is mentioned in a (gasp!) notable, contextualized way. Samaritan 02:36, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Strong merge with the link in Tetris replaced by the homepage of Gravytris. Alphax (talk) 05:41, Dec 22, 2004 (UTC)
