List of wonders in Civilization

his article asserts no notability through reliable sources, and as such is just an in-universe repetition of gameplay elements from the Civilization video game articles. As Wikipedia is not a gameguide, this material is not appropriate for the encyclopedia, and should be deleted. Judgesurreal777 16:58, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as major element of one of the significant computer and console game series. Best, --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles^Tally-ho! 03:31, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as fails WP:NOT#GUIDE. There are no reliable secondary sources to demonstrate that these game elements have any real-world significance at all. --Gavin Collins 16:19, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Wikipedia is not a guide to in-game elements. Soft redirect as suggested above by Malinaccier. I believe you'll find plenty of mentions to show the topic is notable within the context of game reviews for the Civ series and its many imitators, and none to show significant broader notability. I still play Civ II Gold, and the game is important within its field, but wonders are just an in-game element that needs only a paragraph in the parent article.

Comment - I have transwikied this to StrategyWiki:Civilization/Wonders. It will probably be split up to each of the revelant game pages, but the information will be there still. -- Prod-You 15:24, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - this is a very peculiar article. It appears to refer to the content of a computer game, possibly an educational one. The right place for material such as this is on a commercial website from the publishers. An article on the game might be appropriate, but should link to an external website, not a WP page.

Delete. Wikipedia is not a game guide. The wonders in Civ have no demonstrated external importance. Mango juice^talk 03:55, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
