[edit] Hammerfell

Hammerfell (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This article asserts no notability through reliable independent sources, as all those seemingly well cited paragraphs with inline citations are just links to fan sites, and as such is just an in-universe repetition of plot elements from the Elder Scrolls games. As Wikipedia is not a gameguide, and this is all duplicative, this can be safely deleted. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 22:52, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

• Delete Though asserting notability through reliable sources is not exactly the right term, I see no independent sources. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 22:57, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
• delete this is all "in universe" meaning that there is no content what-so-ever which might be of any use or interest, or encyclopedic value to someone in *this* universe. The Elder Scrolls wiki has a total of 9,663 articles, it seems that a large proportion of them are also over here. Those few that have encyclopedic content, meeting WP:N using WP:RS and are written with reference to meaning in this universe, ought to be kept. The others (such as this one) that are simply game cruft ought to be over there where WP:N does not apply. Pete.Hurd (talk) 23:36, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Pete, could you please talyor the comments to the specific article involved? DGG (talk) 02:35, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. No out-of-universe perspective, no real-world notability. Does not meet the requirements of Wikipedia:Notability (fiction). Pagrashtak 16:04, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
