Garbage Compactor 3263827

Subtrivial Star Wars article. Has absolutely no potential for expansion or merging with other artices. Creating a redirect anywhere I feel would be pointless. Only inbound link is a redirect for 3263827, the compactor's number. Saberwyn 00:15, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as per nomination. Saberwyn 00:15, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, possibly the most notable garbage compactor in the universe, potential to expand to describe indigenous fauna. Kappa 00:53, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- There is no potential to expand. In the book, the "indigenous fauna" are described no more specifically than "it", "something", and "whatever". In the film, they are never shown on-screen. Any such expansion would be content created from thin air, which we are not in the business of publishing. Uncle G 01:29, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- I just read in the Star Wars Encyclopedia that dianoga live there. Surely the Star Wars experts should weigh in on this.—Gaff ^talk 01:38, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  - There is no such creature mentioned in either book or film. And that encyclopaedia article, like this one, gives a unit number that is not in either the book or the film script. One doesn't need to be a Star Wars expert in order to read the few pages of the book necessary to verify this. I've given the page number. ☺ Uncle G 02:23, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    - This number, however is present in the film; it seems like it might have been an improvisation (either by Hamill or Lucas). - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 02:46, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    - It is also present on the recorded LP from back in the day. The film script and the book cannot be taken as strict Star Wars canon. But anyway, still seems like insignificant trivia not worth the time of debate on AfD. I agree with merging it to either Death Star or Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope.—Gaff ^ταλκ 04:14, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or merge with Death Star, in spite of cute comment from Kappa. Jkelly 01:04, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete fancruft, unless expanded as kappa suggested. And btw, there are much more notable garbage compactors known for those who read books. mikka (t) 01:06, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with Death Star. No one would look up the redirect, but it wouldn't do any harm, either. CanadianCaesar 01:10, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Just for completeness, I note that this is not the number of the garbage compactor that is given on page 153 of the book. Nor is it the number given in the various on-line copies of the 1975-08-01 edition of the film script. Uncle G 01:29, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

DELETE. This article has a low chance of being expanded to anything other than a stub. It was already well-covered in the article at Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, and, being the minor detail that it is, does not need an article "just becuase it is Star Wars". And... this is coming from a fanboy. Take it to the Star Wars wiki. Well, I guess it's probably there already anyway, and can't be expanded, as I said above The Wookieepedian 01:56, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

M/e/r/g/e with Death Star per genius mergists above. BDAbramson ^talk 02:38, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, can the Wookieepedian's vote count triple? Anyway, delete as subtrivial cruft. (That said, the closing admin may take this as a merge vote if it helps establish consensus.) - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 02:46, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. Contrary to Wookiepedian, there is currently no mention of this Compactor anywhere in the article. --Anetode 04:10, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Death Star. freshgavin ^TALK 05:43, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

possibly the most notable garbage compactor in the universe Oh, good Lord, Kappa's championing of the subtrivial may have reached its ultimate expression. Delete, period, full stop. --Calton | Talk 05:46, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, subtrivial fancruft. MCB 06:39, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, subtrivial fancruft. Psychonaut 08:20, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The most notable garbage compactor in the universe is a classic line, however. Dottore So 10:04, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, only useful for recycling fancruft. Sandstein 14:53, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

What the--?! Delete subtrivial compactorcruft without merging. The redirect should go too. flowersofnight 15:05, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Kappa. Only joking. Delete, 'potential to expand to describe indigenous fauna' notwithstanding. Proto t c 15:57, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Why am i not surprised there's an article here? Anyway delete, beyond subtrivial. -R. fiend 16:35, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It might be worth a mention in the Death Star article but there's not much information to merge. Delete I guess. --Optichan 17:19, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or Merge per above arguments. Ryan Norton ^{T | @ | C} 21:11, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with Death Star. This is the kind of trivial silliness that hard-core Star Wars fans like to know; my brother, for instance, loves stuff like this. Not deserving of its own article, though. Do not under any circumstances interpret this vote as a keep.--Scimitar ^parley 21:58, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with death star. Cool3 23:55, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect the Lucascruft, perhaps to Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope which it asserts to be featured in. ~~~~ 08:31, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
