Why this category?

It's a compromise: if we follow the letter of Policy, I should have marked all these for Deletion as they lack citations and have been up for years in most cases. I would have been technically in the right but nobody would have thanked me for that. I would not have liked me for that. Over 1/3 of our pages marked "refimprove" have nothing, and I am hopeful we can salvage some significant percentage, maybe even most. My next task is going to be to take another pass through and look at those without Bibliography sections and see if I can at least identify what book the original editors were working from, to give us a starting point.--Talvin (talk) 15:16, 25 May 2022 (EDT)

At least a few of those articles had many more problems than just a lack of citations, I have deleted some of the really old ones that would require a lot of work to bring up to any real standard, at least two where just data dumps without real context. What is left will mostly be fairly easy to track stuff down for... Some like the Warlord articles and the Grand Knight are just a case of harvesting the correct citations from the linked character articles. I will try and get that done at some point in the next couple of days.--Dmon (talk) 23:26, 25 May 2022 (EDT)
They certainly did, and your deletions came as no surprise. I now have most of them with Bibliographies at least. 25 of these pages are Star Adder units that I think are all from FM: Crusader Clans, which I do not have, but someone with that book could knock those out very quickly.--Talvin (talk) 08:21, 26 May 2022 (EDT)
I think I still have FM:Crusader Clans. At the moment it is looking like Sunday will be when I get to sit down and dedicate some real time.--Dmon (talk) 10:41, 26 May 2022 (EDT)

I am grateful to my Brother-in-WarShip-Nerdery BrokenMnemonic who gave us well-cited individual ship pages, the Star Adder Naval Reserve Stars are being updated as I write this.--Talvin (talk) 14:15, 26 May 2022 (EDT)
