Talk:First Gang War: Difference between revisions

Deletion

I'm not sure this should be deleted. This article is describing a major plot arc that affects several GTA games, and covers more than a single mission or character. I think (with a few improvements) it is a good way to explain the storylines. Not sure how legitimately it can be called the "First" gang war, but it's worth discussing.

I agree. Deletion is going too far. Perhaps this can be cleaned up and merged with something else? Not sure where to merge, though. But it does seem like a standalone article for First Gang War is a little too isolated, and this info should probably be included in a timeline or storyline article where it can be included with related aspects of the canon. Thoughts? Eganio^Talk 21:13, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

The reason I named it the "First Gang War" Because Im sure thats what it was called.I've heard alot of people and web sites referring as "The First Gang War" and the other wars from Grand Theft Auto:Liberty City Stories as The "Second" or "Third" Gang War.-User:BloodyGTA.

It's not called anything ingame, we would have to make up a name for them. I think we should have an overall Storyline page for each game and (in particular) the GTA III Era. This page would be an expansion of that, to discuss the events, characters and Missions of the war. I do think we have to start at Storyline of GTA III Era or GTA III Era Storyline, just like Grand Theft Auto IV Storyline. Gboyers ^talk 21:45, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

The reason I nominated this page for deletion was because this article is not appropriately named and has no information that isn't described elsewhere. The events are described in the LCS mission pages and the GTA III era Timeline. Also, this couldn't be merged into the LCS article as it only describes part of the storyline, not mentioning the events with Toshiko, Love, Burner, Ma and Maria. As for the name, the three families were shown to at least be on bad terms in 1992. Also, Luigi's Sex Club 7 became Paulie's Revue Bar between 1992 and 1998, suggesting a war because the Leones would certainly not give the bar up. A-Dust 21:39, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

We have a lot of duplicate information. Yes this would echo a lot of things said elsewhere, but this would be a good central page to find out about the war. I don't know the full list of events or the reasons behind it. Sure I could read EVERY mission page for GTA III and GTA LCS, but that would take years and give too much information. Sure, I could read the pages GTA III and GTA LCS, but that wouldn't give me enough information. Pages like Salvatore Leone and Sindacco Family only tell half the story too. I think this would be useful, if made correctly. Gboyers ^talk 21:43, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
