Proposition
Proposition, I find the current Deletion Page a little undisorganized, ugly and aesthetically unpleasing.
Current: Deletion Candidates
- Close combat weapon - these articles are purely game-mechanics oriented --Acidface 19:16, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
- I agree with Acidface: it is poorly written and badly sourced. Anyway, shouldn't the main article have a singular title (and not plural)? --Jacob Sterlov 04:22, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
- Close Combat Weapons -
- File:Firehawks Space Marine.jpg - not used, out of date info, source isn't correct, not even sure if it's real
- Tau Battleship - nothing links to it and all the info is elsewhere anyway. --LegacyCWAL 17:44, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
- Tau Escorts - similar to above --LegacyCWAL 18:16, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
- List of Imperial Ships - completely redundant and the only thing that links to it is "List of Lists" --LegacyCWAL 15:51, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
- Dark Eldar Army List - Force organization chart. (see here for discussion)
I suggest we make the page appear as so:

- The title is already in the singular form.
- They are not game mechanics oriented because the do not define nor source the given distinctions in the manor in which they would apply to the game itself - for example: they do not explain in nature in which melee combat occurs in the game (turn, toughness, saves).
- Note that if this, and it's related pages are deleted we will have no reasourse on the kind of weapons used throughout the imperium. I propose a merge between Close combat weapon and Close Combat Weapons. Due to the great nature of the page (multiple factions and multiple editions) sources will take a while to gather.
- Bad writing can be corrected.

Changes
- Bolding of the article in question.
- A easy to see and definitive bolding of the user's position on the matter "Agree", "Disagree" or Comment/Query.
- Numbering of individual points, this is at the user discretion but is a feature that ought to be encouraged.
- Signing on the line subsequent the point. Many signatures including the default are quite long. It generally looks clearer.
- Due to nature of bullet points the user will have to start there comment with primary indentation. It aligns the comment under the link itself.
eg:
: Lorem ipsum hurrp durrp.
:: Agree: Lorem ipsum hurrp durrp.
::: Disagree: Lorem ipsum hurrp durrp.
- Division of the bullet points themselves with spacing or making them tertiary subtitles (===/===).
