Left 4 Dead Wiki

This site is just a copy of the Valve wikis "List of L4D2 Cvars " page, but chopped in pieces.

According to Wikias terms of use , this is not allowed to do. Quote: "You may not submit content to the Service that you did not create or that you do not have permission to submit."

This page and subpages should be deleted.

Hmmm… Seems like you're right. Now let's check category containing everything that shouldda be deleted… Well, shit, looks like none of admins gives a middle finger about it. Sorry, dude. Shit ain't right, like Coach said. Pangia, 15:45, January 27, 2015 (UTC)
I disagree. Even trough it may violate the Wikia's ToU. Few copied content is not a big problem. Unless the whole wiki is copied from somewhere without permission. Also, users can edit there either if they are registered. --Yong Feng (Reply←→Edits) 19:03, January 27, 2015 (UTC)
I'm about, oh, 21 months late to this, but right now I'm trawling through troll pages that have been marked for deletion and I've discovered this, so I'll weigh in with my two cents. It doesn't in fact violate the terms of service. This is information gleaned from the Internet and is freely available to access from many websites, regardless of whether we have a version of it here or not. The point is, Valve has allowed and encouraged the dissemination of that information, and by virtue of that fact we have 'permission' to use and display it. So no, no violation of rights here. Anyway, the odds of any of you seeing and coming back to this are probably incredibly low, so I'm practically talking to myself. Time for Five Dog to keep going with the purge of pages that are crying out for deletion. --Five Dog Talk 03:54, October 22, 2016 (UTC)
