Afterlife guild in EQ[edit]

In Everquest there was a guild named Afterlife in Mithaniel Marr. It became one of the biggest guilds in the game and was first guild to make various achievements in its time.

Should probably also be listed here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.159.230.3 (talk • contribs) 2007-07-03 10:48:32

If they've been subject to coverage by reliable, independent secondary sources, they might. See Wikipedia:Notability, and Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). —Piet Delport 14:40, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This has been a battle with the editors. The issue is that online games stick to their medium, and despite the major significance Afterlife played in early MMORPG game development, the way the information exists does not meet the literal interpretation of the notability guidelines. While there are many stories about Afterlife, there is no definitive way to distinguish between truth and legend. While Wikipedia has an obligation to ensure the sites integrity, one of the more liberal criticisms is that it is unfairly bias against internet / underground communities of gamers and artists, even if it is an unintended site-effect. But as such, Wikipedia will never have the story of Afterlife and the origins of Dragon Kill Points systems, or at very least, you will never find an article stub. 199.80.142.70 (talk) 19:26, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
