Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II announcement trailer (talk - history - links - logs)

This is my first attempt at a TC, so please bear with me, and please feel free to correct any stupid mistakes I may have made, or add anything I might have forgotten.

As discussed on the article's talk page, it is my understanding that Wookieepedia does not support individual articles for promotional trailers. Unlike the three cinematic trailer articles we have for The Old Republic—Deceived, Hope, and Return—this trailer, despite also being of a high quality and cinematic nature, does not portray a series of canonical events, as per the unofficial criteria agreed upon prior to the creation of the former articles.

Delete; merge relevant information to Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II

  1. Per my reasoning above. Bella'Mia 06:54, February 7, 2012 (UTC)
  2. Delete and merge, per above. I think Trash compactor/TV spots and Trash compactor/Vector Prime television commercial support your interpretation of our approach to trailers. (As an aside, I found no technical mistakes here on your first TC; well done.) jSarek 11:25, February 7, 2012 (UTC)
    • Thank you, jSarek. :) Bella'Mia 05:51, February 14, 2012 (UTC)
  3. Per Bella'Mia jSarek. Category:Films does not contain much in terms of trailers, and this one is a video game trailer that does not seem of particular note. graestan(talk) 17:19, February 7, 2012 (UTC)
  4. I see this more as bts information. JangFett (Talk) 17:31, February 7, 2012 (UTC)
  5. Per my reason everywhere else this has been discussed. Darth Trayus(Trayus Academy) 07:57, February 8, 2012 (UTC)

  8. I'm afraid I'm going to have to say merge. It doesn't really add any new canonical information, and it is little more than a normal trailer. The information should be kept but in a separate article.—Cal JediInfinite Empire (Personal Comm Channel) 16:11, February 8, 2012 (UTC)
  9. Per Cal. Master Jon Holocomm Thursday, February 9, 2012, 01:55 UTC
  10. Feed it to the Gorog. Menkooroo 02:01, February 9, 2012 (UTC)

Keep

  1. It's in-between the full canon of the TOR trailers and a trailer that just has images from the game. As I said on the talk page, it is the first source which includes Starkiller and his journey, as well as the Gorog. Also, I feel that as it was a special announcement at the Spike TV VGAs (not that i'd create an article on it) is worthy of a separate article. The two TV spots are a separate case, of course. But this trailer at the very least is an important introduction to the TFU II project. Corellian PremierRobotechAll along the watchtower 15:21, February 7, 2012 (UTC)
