Being illegal in certain countries isn't enough for a deletion. Or the game/movie "Sucks" isn't enough either. But if it contains internationally illegal that the UN or something is strongly against, then I would say no.

Read the bloody thread. It's like none of you are thinking of the consequences of removing things for the reasons you want to remove them. You're not considering all the unpublished verses everyone's okay with that would be hit by this.Agnaa said:It isn't though. We have tons of self-published works. Parahumans (Verse) and SCP Foundatio as some of the most notable examples.
And, like every other time using copyright as a measuring stick has been suggested, that is an absolutely awful way to decide what works are allowed. Firstly, copyright is automatic, so everything gets it by default. Secondly, if you want a more manual thing like trademarks, then any sufficiently obsessed shitty author can get their work trademarked through a few forms and a couple hundred bucks. It'd merely weed out legitimately popular creators who just don't bother with that.
Seems good to meAgnaa said:The circumstance we've always come to are simply; notability outside of vs debating communities, a coherent canon & continuity which feats can be drawn from, and being able to be reliably translated into English.
The first takes care of authors making profiles for their own things, as well as verses like Suggsverse.
The second takes care of things like asdf movie, a popular yet incoherent series of animated meme skits from which meaningful profiles are nigh-impossible.
The third takes care of situations like Golovachov verse, where statistics come solely from one supporter who can't provide independent translations, making the profiles unreliable.
The VS Battles Wiki is, first and foremost, a fictional character indexing site. All featured characters in our profiles should originate from actual stories, from notable or popular works. A story includes a plot, a fictional setting, and having a defined canon. At the very least, the setting should be entirely fictional in nature, with no true bearing over the real world. |
But like verses like Suggsverse aren't allowed because can't be tiered using the tiering system rather then anything to do with popularityKepekley23 said:Agnaa, going by your own logic, our "notability outside of VS debating communities" standard is compltely arbitrary, meaning we could potentially twist the rules enough to allow the Suggsverse and other similarly spurious works to have profiles here.
Worms verse legit only has 1 profile so amount is irrelavant tbh, also if we judge via popularity then how we define not popular? I could say RPC Authority isn't popular since it's competing with SCP Foundation and losing hard so do we delete it?Antvasima said:Okay. I think that we should remove this then. There are only 3 pages for the verse, and it isn't popular at all. It isn't that big a deal to do so.

I don't understand your argument here. All our standards are arbitrary. We could always change the rules to let in other verses. We could change this website into FC/OC wiki if we wanted. Or we could make it "Western tv shows battles wiki". What you're saying just doesn't make any sense to me.Kepekley23 said:Agnaa, going by your own logic, our "notability outside of VS debating communities" standard is compltely arbitrary, meaning we could potentially twist the rules enough to allow the Suggsverse and other similarly spurious works to have profiles here.
