Its good to see that there is a movement to get CFCwiki out of the delete list. Its only fair that if Apolyton has one that we should have one as well.

The Wiki page for CFC is being considered for deletion.
This message is at the top of the page:

Bold by me.
Anyone who disagrees with the page being deleted may wish to post on the discussion page the reason why they feel the page is worthy to stay.

Wiki strongly discourages campaigning to keep pages afloat. A large number of "Keep" votes from accounts registered only to vote will have, at best, no effect, and at worst, a negative one. They're already complaining about that effect over there.
That said, those who have a fair number of unrelated WP contributions should vote if they want to, using that site's policies to back up their opinions.

Don't make me destroy you
For the record, I support the deletion of the page. See my comments if you wish to know why.

You actually made a good point, I learned of CFC from Google, not a Wiki article.
I guess what I found offensive was that every car, toy, stupid TV show and terrible pop song has endless wiki pages on pathetic unused websites while in contrast this site is so alive and is a repository of useful game info, downloads and mods, yet this site deserves its Wiki page deleted.

Its only fair that if they allow Apoloyton and 2chan, and other websites to have their articles that they should allow CFC to have an article.

They are to put it nicely very anal. 90% of what goes in for AFD gets deleted.

I've wrote the first one! I've also added a section with info for the mods, which is edited right now (and it looks really cool!)SuperBeaverInc. said:Kudos to whoever wrote this:

I essentially agree with John, though I'm more on the "keep it" side.
The article does read like an advert, and do we really need that much info?
Let's be honest, we could effectively cut the article down to a stub, with no real loss of meaning to anyone who found the article;
Do we really need a list of moderators?
A detailed list of the forum structures, the forums themselves?
Such detail on the activities?
Do we really need that much info on NESes? What's written there takes up the majority of the page, is an extremely detailed page for what is effectively a brief overview, and it looks like a collection of links.
Forum Subculture? What causal reader would want to know about Avatar swaps, Mafia, "Warning, user is XXX", GDRs?
90% of the article is effectively crap, and it could be culled to give the 10% that is actually interesting, in line with Wiki policy, and doesn't read like an advert, or a dump of links, reason to stay.
