Deletion discussion

(Thanks for slapping on the template without starting the discussion yourself. Nice and polite.) I disagree with Spyspotter's request to delete this page. While it is quite speculative, the fact is that there are patterns and it's nice to have a page that goes over them. What this page needs is not to be deleted, but to have the speculation edited out so it's an observation of the patterns themselves rather than speculation about whether those patterns will continue. If this is done (and I intend to do it if people agree with me), it should probably be either moved to an entirely new title or merged into the "Version" article (which, as a side note, should really be titled "Main series" for consistency with our other pages).

I disagree with the deletion notice. <!--and can I be deleted I need a fresh start-->--Reliジーランス? 17:24, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
I'm alright with the patterns in the version article, but the rest of it needs to go. Having speculation is one thing, but having an entire article consisting of it is another. Also, I don't always start deletion discussions, if I didn't, then the edit summary and the template state my argument. I think it's a waste of time retyping all that stuff out. The above comment is supported by Spyspotter. 19:10, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
I think there are better places for this page's content. What it currently seems to be is a list of generalities about Pokémon games that would probably be more suited for Version or whatever it becomes. --FSX (talk) 16:21, 10 July 2013 (UTC)
I think there is a simple solution to this: move it to the appendix. What do you guys think? --Landfish7 15:25, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
I don't think so. The appendix namespace a) never gets noticed and b) Is for fact only. The only namespace for speculation is the shipping namespace, and (for obvious reasons) it can not be moved there. The above comment is supported by Spyspotter. 18:19, 13 July 2013 (UTC)
I don't think this belongs in the appendix. I do personally think a merge with Version would be a fine idea. --ZestyCactus 21:15, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Per discussion, I've merged all the content that seemed appropriate into the Version article. If I missed anything or anyone disagrees, please speak up; otherwise, my opinion is that this article is done and ready to be deleted. Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 22:33, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

I disagree with the deletion of this page. I mean this not the first page to contain speculation (e.g. Shipping article. But they I guess from the prefix that they are not in the mainspace,are they? ). I don't know if this is wrong but I suggest that the article be renamed to something like, IMHO, Trends set by Pokemon games or sth like that and if possible, moved somewhere this so-called speculation is allowed.Auraguardian197 07:12, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
