Holy cow is this bad

This is undoubtedly one of the worst wiki articles I have ever seen. It seems bad enough that it may have been vandalized. Completely non-descriptive, and even inaccurate, attributing CAR-15 facts to the 933. Should this thing just be deleted? Grizzly chipmunk (talk) 13:45, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for noticing. It's the inadequate remainder after I deleted the material copied from another website.[1][2] (The article was created an editor who's the likely sock of a known plagiarist. I see you've already encountered his handiwork at IMBEL IA2.) There's no good version to go back to. If you put the PROD template on it I doubt anyone would object. Better to start over from scratch, if anyone's interested. Rezin (talk) 23:16, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have no clue what the PROD template is, and I mostly just edit for grammar. That aside, what if this page was completely reconstructed using info from Colt's website, maybe World Guns, and common sense (such as that the 933 model was not available in Vietnam, when Colt models had 6's as primary numbers)? I'll look into fixing this a bit. Grizzly chipmunk (talk) 13:03, 10 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Better idea. I do not know how to change the name, but it should be Colt M4 Commando, not Colt 933. I will try to find out how to nominate for deletion and recreate the article. Grizzly chipmunk (talk) 13:10, 10 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
