Deletion

YesWe don't seem to have enough information since the game isn't out yet and it's almost entirely based on speculation. -HD3 Sig 12:16, April 1, 2014 (UTC)

Maybe It's not speculation (see this article), but it's true there isn't a lot of information regarding the faction. That being said, I'm neutral towards its deletion, since it's likely going to be recreated again. ··· D-day sig d·day! 20:56, April 3, 2014 (UTC)

Nope We don't really have enough information, true, but this article is not based on speculation. There is no speculation in the article, hence why it is so empty. I don't see the point in this recent spate of purges, supposedly because 'the game isn't out yet'. It puts this wiki behind in terms of information as time progresses, and in almost every single case will result in recreation.

The reason for the multiple requests (there have actually been few outright deletions) for deletion is not primarily because the game is not out yet, it’s because there is conflicting information coming in from multiple sources, many of them leaked before the articles are even published/translated correctly (and it doesn’t help that BioWare is refusing to confirm most of it). There has been a spate of people slapping up any crap rumors they want to on the wiki and not bothering to see if it's correct or verifiable, or even backed up by a source. Not necessarily on this article, but definitely on others ("a jar of bees can one-shot a high dragon", for instance).
A solution regarding creating Inquisition pages with little information could be reached if anyone actually wanted to bring the discussion up in a single place rather than on a whole bunch of different talk pages (I had considered doing that, and even wrote something up, but I’m letting myself get way too wound up about this whole issue). --Kelcat (talk) 23:58, April 4, 2014 (UTC)
Hehe Kelcat, I'd like to hear about it if you still want to post it somewhere! :] It's something that I would expect to happen (especially the missing source part), and to still happen even if we have tags and notifications everywhere, lol. ··· D-day sig d·day! 01:11, April 5, 2014 (UTC)
This wouldn't be a "real" wiki without the occasional nonsense article being made now and again ;) Anyway, since you asked I made a condensed forum post here. Maybe someone will find it of interest while I go back to my pedantic cleanup of Origins articles. --Kelcat (talk) 04:21, April 5, 2014 (UTC)
In light of the newly designed Disclaimer template, I am fine with changing my vote to Nope.-HD3 Sig 09:15, April 6, 2014 (UTC)

Pictogram resolved I have removed the deletion template per this discussion. ··· D-day sig d·day! 19:10, April 9, 2014 (UTC)

"Based on"

From trivia: Their armor is based on the armor worn by Roman Gladiators.

Is there a source that says the developers actually based the venatori armor on gladiator armor? --Kelcat Talk 06:09, October 24, 2014 (UTC)
