[edit] Pre-Rider War

Pre-Rider War (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Part of the backstory of the Eragon books. The page looks like OR to me, I cannot recall if Paolini called it the "pre-rider war." Non-notable, not even worthy of a redirect, in my opinion. Fee Fi Foe Fum 02:32, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

• Keep, perhaps merge with dragon riders. (by the way, Paolini did call it the Pre-Rider War).--Sunny910910 ^{(talk|Contributions)Neither will alone, nor strength alone} 02:39, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
• Merge somewhere. The backstory is worthy of description, as I think this is the in-universe explanation of the Eragon name, but not as its own article. --Gwern (contribs) 06:00 23 September 2007 (GMT)

Merging leaves the history. Don't you mean, delete and redirect? Fee Fi Foe Fum 06:45, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

See my comment on the other related AfD. Summary for those who don't want to track it down: I said what I meant. --Gwern (contribs) 18:54 23 September 2007 (GMT)

• Merge, doesn't need it's own article. -- Ned Scott 05:53, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect Leaving the history intact in case someone wants to merge it. — i ^said 22:40, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
• Delete - Dragon Riders already covers the main points. The subject doesn't justify its own article. Una Laguna^Talk 09:19, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
