18XX conventions (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)

A list of external links to conventions which may or may not be notable (gaming is something I'm not too familiar with) but "with at least some emphasis on 18XX Games" is not an indication of a cohesive theme for these conventions. 2/3 refs (one is offline so can't tell) talk about the conferences, not the theme of 18xx games.

• Merge into 18XX which still has room for this material. Colonel Warden (talk) 09:20, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question what is there to merge? It's a list of external links. Am I missing something? TravellingCari 14:33, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - the article is pretty close to a link farm -- Whpq (talk) 16:31, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• merge Sources look real, but I've no way to confirm. Further, without being able to see the articles in question, I have a hard time knowing how on-point there are. But their titles (again, if real) indicate they are on topic. That said, I think this belongs on the 18xx page. I don't see a reason for a separate article on this. As to what to merge (raised above) the list itself. It may be a list of links, but the information is encyclopedic. Hobit (talk) 00:18, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
