This is a deletion discussion page
This is the archived talk page of a deleted article. Do not restart discussion on this page unless you have a valid reason why this page should not have been deleted.

Despite the immense amount of work contributed to this article, the whole thing seems Telephone-ish to me. Anyone else? --Peter Farago 02:10, 16 April 2006 (CDT)

Agreed. I was never a big fan, though I tried to improve it as I could. Same goes for mutiny. --The Merovingian ^{(C - E)} 02:13, 16 April 2006 (CDT)

It would be better as "List of Assassination Attempts," and that article probably shouldn't exist. --CalculatinAvatar 17:44, 16 April 2006 (CDT)

I concur with CA...generally this is a telephone article, but how the Colonials infight is quite relevant. Moving this article to a new name such as "Assassination attempts" could work, but also note that "assassination" implies a murder of a person in high political or soclal regard. Capping an officer per se doesn't qualify, so some of the items listed here are not true assassinations. --Spencerian 09:47, 17 April 2006 (CDT)

I agree, as I stated above back in April. --The Merovingian ^{(C - E)} 18:09, 21 May 2006 (CDT)

Imminent Deletion

I've marked this article for deletion. Of course shootings will happen; the survivors of the Fleet are in a war, and sometimes with each other. Real-life history has occasional notes of this, but a show of this nature will be chock-full of it for the sake of drama. Most importantly, there are episode summaries and supportive character bios that detail all that is spoken here. No need to break it out as a specific topic. Any supportive comments should be placed below. "Merge" is not an option as, again, the content here is already in other articles. --Spencerian 18:12, 21 May 2006 (CDT)

I always wondered why it existed, anyway. --Day ^{(Talk - Admin)} 22:21, 22 May 2006 (CDT)

Keep:
