Age of Empires III military units

Misplaced Pages is not a game guide. This page provides a list of all the units in Age of Empires III and gives information on which units are effective against other units. This makes it a clear violation of WP:NOT. Was successfully prodded at some point but was recreated recently. Indrian 05:44, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Transwiki if one of the gaming wikis wants it, else delete per nom. MER-C 08:02, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Transwiki, possibly to Egamia, or another similar. Ck lostsword||Suggestions? 09:17, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, aids understanding of the game, thus encylopedic. Kappa 01:39, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
    • I know that you have some wapred definition of game guide that does not include articles like this, but by the logic you just used above, all video game guides and walkthorughs belong as they aid in understanding the game. The question therefore is, how can you possibly reconcile your above statement with established wikipedia policy prohibiting walkthroughs and game guides? Indrian 02:47, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
      • Walkthroughs are "how-tos" and do not belong. There is no policy against game guides except to the extent they are instructional rather than encylopedic. Kappa 02:57, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
        • That does not answer the question thought. A walkthrough also aids understanding the game, and above you said that anything that aids in understanding the game is encyclopedic. I do not think you are deliberately contradicting yourself, but I do think your initial comment was a bit careless. Indrian 03:06, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
