Classes in World of Warcraft

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This seems a perfect example of an article that violates wp:GAMEGUIDE. This information belongs on the official website and is in fact mostly copied from there. Yoenit (talk) 21:58, 26 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I just noticed there are multiple AFDs for this page and the last one was closed as delete, although the article was actually redirected by the closer. This is thus a G4 candidate. Yoenit (talk) 22:03, 26 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect as Blake suggests below is even better than deletion, but the link should be protected to avoid recreation without DRV. Yoenit (talk) 15:24, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Gameplay of World of Warcraft#Characters as a possible search term. Protect the redirect if you feel necessary. _Blake ^{(Talk·Edits)} 23:01, 26 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Also, I want to just say that while I am saying this article doesn't deserve to exist, I believe that with a thorough search for sources, and a complete rewrite, it could be a good article. _Blake ^{(Talk·Edits)} 23:14, 26 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Snow redirect -- I might be a little early in calling for snow, but that's all this is going to come to, if not a flat out delete. Blake's suggestion is a good candidate. No opinion on protecting the redirect. --Izno (talk) 03:16, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per User:Blake, the target already provides links that should perfectly facilitate the reader. --Taelus (talk) 06:59, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Snow redirect and lock - per multiple past AfDs if we're going to keep it we need to lock it from editing. --Teancum (talk) 15:08, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect and protect per Blake. —chaos5023 (talk) 01:15, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
