Prop Delete

Rationale

See Talk:Skirmish at Tranquil Repose. This is flatly absurd. This kind of article needs to be rooted out of this wiki. Except in very rare cases articles should not be created for events or things that have no names. Battles in particular do not deserve their own names/pages unless the name is given in a primary source. CzechOut | 06:59, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Against Deletion

  • The evil dude - A proper event that happenes deserves an article, even if it hasn't got a name. The War in the Medusa Cascade was on a massive scale, for one the Earth was moved, and two, the Daleks attacked every major city and major military base. Its either War in the Medusa Cascade or The Daleks flew in their spaceships to Earth to destroy every military base that poses a threat, while UNIT and others defend themselves, making a war because it would be happening in lots of places around Earth.
  • Tangerineduel 07:33, 29 July 2008 (UTC) Well perhaps 2009 Dalek Attack on Earth. But 'War in the Medusa Cascade' isn't really correct, the only battle happens on Earth.
  • Indeed keep the article, it is a good one, but the title is not particularly dalek-ish perhaps 'Dalek Invasion of Earth in 2009'
  • ~ Ghelæ -talk-contribs I say keep it, it is an important event. The Skrimish at Tranquil Repose was, as the name suggests, just a skirmish. However, as others have said, a new name might be good. I thought up the name after The Stolen Earth, if I remember rightly, and it wasn't clear if just Earth was involved in conflict with the Daleks or whether other planets would be. Journey's End seems to make it clear that the entire Dalek fleet was around Earth, as illogical as it would be that the other inhabited stolen worlds wouldn't try to stop the Daleks. So, with no evidence to the otherwise, we could just have two "Dalek Invasion of Earth" articles, one for the 22nd century and one for 2009, this being the latter. Although, there was the destruction of the Crucible as well, and that wasn't on Earth.
  • Dude851884 - I like it. It was a great event and this article has great potential. I think it should be called the Battle of the Cascade though.
