There was about 65 pages with noeffort or nuke tag, I took it down to about 30. (There is now only 20) I deleted about 15 to 20 pages that had been around a while and not much effort had been done. A few were noeffort tagged but had detailed descriptions, they were just missing screencaps. The noeffort tag reads.

"This article is a candidate for deletion. IMFDB expects certain minimal standards from articles; even if a contributor cannot take their own screenshots, it is still possible to create detailed per-weapon writeups and format an article correctly. Simply dumping a couple of weapon names on a page is essentially demanding we do all the work for you, and this is unacceptable."

So they were tagged incomplete.

There was also around 5 or 6 pages that were tagged nuke for being a documentary. Even though they aren't allowed anymore. They were made before the rule was enforced. If were going to allow Mail Call, a show that tells you what the weapon is, I think Mythbusters and other documentaries merit a page more than Mail Call.

Another thing Burt, many pages get deleted before it even has a tag.
