Gallic language (DELETED)

I am not the one who marked it for deletion, but I agree. It is basically a translation page, and the server rules clearly state that everything must be in english. The only exception is for words already in english lexicon, and all but a few on this page are. Said words do not need a page. Therefor this page is unnecessary clutter and should players who choose to use words out of common lexicon sanctioned. Ipuvaepe 13:12, 13 August 2011 (UTC)

Sergio Cordova & Rodrico Jimenez (DELETED)

Page was blank. -- Alex 19:43, 13 February 2010 (MST)

I've left them alone for now. A reminder to Sead (the author) might be in order. ~Chovynz~ (BlabsEgo) (Wiki Admin) 19:16, 13 May 2010 (MDT)
Doesn't look like anything's going to happen to these pages. They say 'Soon.' but this was like 5 months ago... --Alex 07:43, 14 May 2010 (MDT)
I sent him a forum PM. Let us see what his response is and go from there. Tumble-Weed (ComLink) (Holocron) Zoners.png 00:59, 22 May 2010 (MDT)
He replied on the forum. The pages can be deleted. He forgot about them after he killed the characters off. All is good. Delete. Tumble-Weed (ComLink) (Holocron) Zoners.png 08:11, 22 May 2010 (MDT)

Doned and Doneder. Deleted Due to Damning Denial. Dis Dude Djokes! ~Chovynz~ (BlabsEgo) (Wiki Admin) 00:29, 23 May 2010 (MDT)

Talk:Robots (DELETED)

Article no longer exists. --Alex 18:10, 13 May 2010 (MDT)

Good spotting Alex. It might be worth keeping this page since there are robots of various sorts in Disco. ~Chovynz~ (BlabsEgo) (Wiki Admin) 18:33, 13 May 2010 (MDT)
I think the article was about the Robots that controlled Planet Gammu in Vanilla - if there was a 'Robots' article made in future, I doubt this talk page would hold anything useful related to the new article. --Alex 05:03, 14 May 2010 (MDT)

C6 Refuelling Platform (RESOLVED)

Cannot find this station in Companion. Don't think it exists. --Alex 07:34, 14 May 2010 (MDT)

I could be utterly mistaken, but isn't it a non-dockable structure? Tumble-Weed (ComLink) (Holocron) Zoners.png 06:35, 20 May 2010 (MDT)

I just checked this. I was wrong, it's there but a non-dockable structure. I can't see how this is considered a base though. --Alex 11:15, 21 May 2010 (MDT)
Role-play over game mechanics? Useful stub article, and it explains what the structure is. Perhaps a new category is needed for such things?Tumble-Weed (ComLink) (Holocron) Zoners.png 00:46, 22 May 2010 (MDT)

Added my thoughts to the talk page. I wouldn't want it deleted since it's quite a useful little thing. It is also hopefully the first of many such structures and pages. ~Chovynz~ (BlabsEgo) (Wiki Admin) 22:11, 22 May 2010 (MDT)


I say keep it, and add a catagory for un-dockable stations. The junction wreck in Kansas as one prime example, a faction has been built around it. --Kashiwaba Tomoe 03:53, 18 July 2010 (MDT)

I have removed the deletion flag from the page, as consensus is that it's useful. I too look forward to many more such pages. Sovereign 13:37, 3 August 2010 (MDT)

Planet New Paris (RESOLVED)

  • Does not use the system template.
  • Does not exist in the latest public Discovery mod files.

--Alex 08:54, 8 July 2010 (MDT)

Edited to contain only what is known in this mod. It still exists in RP, no need to deny it. We'll change it when the next version comes out. ~cshake (talk) (sysop) 10:10, 20 July 2010 (MDT)

Bribe (REDIRECTED)

Content copied into the Bribes page, if you cant find the 2nd paragraph, it is in HTML comment form. "Tracky 18:40, 25 July 2010 (MDT)"

Made into a redirect to Bribes, people might still search for it. ~cshake (talk) (sysop) 19:30, 25 July 2010 (MDT)

Aaron Cozar (DELETED)

Previous content was a redirect to "DELETE", therefore I imagine the owner of the page wanted the deletion of the page. "Tracky 19:51, 1 August 2010 (MDT)"

Done. ~cshake (talk) (sysop) 16:28, 8 August 2010 (MDT)

Universal Drones (DELETED)

Page deletion requested by page creator. Pretty clear cut. Sovereign 13:39, 3 August 2010 (MDT)

Done. ~cshake (talk) (sysop) 16:28, 8 August 2010 (MDT)

Multiple Pictures (DELETED)

Image:Hodge.JPG, Image:Podge.JPG, Image:Baffin system.jpg, Image:Baffin System.JPG, Image:Cortez System.JPG, Image:Yukon System.jpg and Tirane.png are proposed for deletion as a identical or higher quality version exists of them.

Done. ~cshake (talk) (sysop) 16:28, 8 August 2010 (MDT)

Emilie Cross (DELETED)

Page deletion requested by page creator. Reason, Character doesnt exist now. 2 Pages Emilie Cross and Battleship Revin Stewcool 03:07, 20 October 2010 (MDT)

-Done ~cshake (talk) (sysop) 07:40, 20 October 2010 (MDT)

Queen Espi's Revenge (DELETED)

Pointless page is pointless. --Alex 14:09, 20 December 2010 (MST)

Why has this not been deleted yet? Tumble-Weed (ComLink) (Holocron) Zoners.png 01:48, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
done ~cshake (talk) (sysop) 02:33, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

IKytec (RESOLVED)

Page is outdated and no longer valid in any way. (Farenheit 17:17, 18 June 2011 (UTC))

Marked as historical. --Alex 16:26, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

Southern alliance (DELETED)

Redirects to Liberty Navy, has not been edited since July of 2008 (before the oldest edit to Liberty Navy)

Useless page that gets no hits and does not have justification for the off topic redirect IMO. Ipuvaepe 17:59, 10 August 2011 (UTC)

Traders (RESOLVED)

Traders page use, rather lack of use, is applicable to neither its former use nor current state. In short, it is useless. Ipuvaepe 18:04, 10 August 2011 (UTC)


More bot spam (DELETED)

Spam that seems to be from the same bot that Blodo permabanned earlier (same naming convention)
These need to be deleted:

How_To_Lose_Belly_Fat_development_37
Internet_Coupons_news_bulletin_19
What Exactly Do Individual Dental Insurance Plans Take care of?
Review of Football Taking pictures

Your friendly-neighborhood bot sniper. Ipuvaepe 19:05, 10 August 2011 (UTC)

I already reported some of these posts in the wiki chat. Unfortunately Blodo (our only active admin) isn't around much at the moment. Methinks we need more admins. --Alex 23:08, 10 August 2011 (UTC)
It has been handled and Blodo unblocked himself earlier. Ipuvaepe 13:02, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

File:Quaritch.jpg (DELETED)

Appears uploader forgot to use new name and then reuploaded correctly. This is a duplicate file. Ipuvaepe 18:15, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

J-93 Torpedo Boat "Javelin" (DELETED)

Page claims to be a design to be implemented in 819 A.S. (4.86). It's a gunship-sized vessel with a cruiser shield, SHF agility, heavy cruiser powercore, and a bomber torpedo slot. Overpowered pipedream doesn't begin to approach this. While it could be considered a sketch or idea, it is most definitely not a completed design as the page states. It has not been updated in nearly a year.

Spam (RESOLVED)

There's now 190 pages marked for deletion as spam, 110 pictures marked for deletion and 16 pages marked for deletion.

In other words, almost 7% of pages on the wiki are (as of 27.11.11) spam or up for deletion.

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Space (talk) 10:19, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

Sirius Sector (RESOLVED)

As proposed on Talk:Sirius_Sector I think this section overlaps too much with Geography which is on the main page. The history of human settlement could easily be integrated into Geography under the Houses section, the heavily outdated information on guard systems as well. All other information on that page has been available on Geography for a long time and fits there better anway. Hell, there's even a section labeled Geography in [[Sirius Sector]...

I'm currently working on creating a new map, detailing all as-of-v4.86 guard systems, including a legend.

Fro Errant (DELETED)

Was a page dedicated to a character that no longer exists and is now a blank page.

ToxicSmurf 07:03, 14 May 2012 (CEST)

Done.

Battleship Secondary Turret (disambiguation) (RESOLVED)

As all Class 8 Turrets are now referred to as Battleship Secondary Turrets, a disambiguation page is unnecessary and redundant.

The above unsigned entry was written by Ipuvaepe (Talk | contribs) on 21:40, 19 July 2012‎
I think we should just leave this as a redirect to be honest. --Alex 16:44, 20 July 2012 (CEST)

2nd Murmillo Wiki Page

While i was updating the wiki i found this 2nd Murmillo Page, different from the actual one - Logic (talk) 21:56, 22 May 2015 (CEST)
