[edit] Phyresis

I have never heard this term, and I am an avid Magic: The Gathering player. That should tell you all you need to know. -- Grev 17:43, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

• Actually, what we need to know is what attempts you've made to look for sources that describe this concept. "I've never heard of it." is not a valid reason for deleting articles. Uncle G 17:59, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
  • I second that! See WP:OSTRICH. PT ^(s-s-s-s) 18:24, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
    • I third that. Please review Wikipedia:Deletion policy. I'm not sure I'm familiar enough with this subject to pass judgment on it. I'd rather the article had verifiable sources, of course. Are you asserting the subject lacks notability? Give us some nominating criteria to go on, and we can make much better informed judgments on a proposed deletion.

      • I am indeed. It is the type of thing that only the most fanatical of fans of the subject would even know about. In other words, fancruft. -- Grev 06:20, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to Yawgmoth. While the reason for the nomination wasn't very good, this doesn't really need its own article. It's essentially a glorified plot device that can be mentioned in the Yawgmoth article. --Coredesat talk. ^_^ 00:35, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect per above; there are things here worth keeping.--Runcorn 17:25, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to Phyrexia or Yawgmoth. Probably no useful info. Andrew Levine 14:00, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, do not merge or redirect. This was spun off from Yawgmoth inappropriately already. I think this fails WP:WAF on its own; no way this could be written about in an out-of-universe perspective and maintain any significance. Mangojuice^talk 16:25, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
