SNES Simearth

~~I am requesting this page be deleted.~~ What wikipedia is not a game guide WP:WIN SYSS Mouse 19:35, 28 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I am amending this request as a clean up and merge. SYSS Mouse 16:05, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Merge with SimEarth, which is a notable game. Radiant _* 09:50, Mar 29, 2005 (UTC)
Merge with SimEarth - I agree. Rickyrab 09:53, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
I am NOT writing a game guide I am merely explaining the aspects of the game. This version is VERY different than the PC version. Stovetopcookies 03:21, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
List of Wonders in Civilization could be considered as well. Don't be so quick to judge to works of others until you recognize your own actions.

The difference is that you went too far in explaining the "aspects". It may not be a game guide but it still looks like a game manual. In the List of Wonders in Civilization case had I pur the requirements and the effects of the wonder it would be deleted as well. I have amended the request. SYSS Mouse 16:05, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

If I removed things like the omega energy requiements and just list and describe each of the lifeforms, etc, would that be considered a reasonable amount of detail to incorporate? Stovetopcookies 17:43, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Keep, articles on games are not the same as game guides. Kappa 08:14, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Merge into a SimEarth section about the differences between the PC and SNES versions. Mgm|^(talk) 08:21, Mar 30, 2005 (UTC)
Merge. I am in complete agreement with MacGyverMagic on this one. Sjakkalle 08:40, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Merge. Yeah, what MacGyverMagic said. KingTT 14:22, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
How about the last two posters try again. This time, try to actually present viable reasons instead of just "duh, whatever he said" Stovetopcookies 16:54, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- No need to be rude. Mrwojo 15:50, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Keep: This article is showing the different aspects of the game. Extensive as it may be, it is providing a clear and thurough wealth of information wih regard to the subject. 130.156.3.254 00:34, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Merge, simcruft. ComCat 02:08, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Keep, Informative article. Klonimus 03:30, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Merge into SimEarth and clean up. At the moment it's an outline (or guide the text itself says) of how to play the game rather than an article about the game, so what's currently there could be transwikied to WikiBooks Game Guides and Strategy. Mrwojo 15:50, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Transwiki game guides to Wikibooks. —Korath (Talk) 00:06, Apr 15, 2005 (UTC)
