Talk:Exploit (video game)

Contested deletion
This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance simply because it is quite a popular browser game. I'm new to "the game" of editing/creating Wikipedia articles, so weather a game is important enough to be considered worthy of a WP article is not easy. However, the game developer has his own article. Two of his games ("Necropolis" and "The Majesty of Colors") have their own article. Necropolis (played 24,789 times) is not by far as popular as Exploit (played 724,157 times). I decided to make an article because it was "red" on Weirs game list in the article about him. &mdash; Isdanselgen (talk) 21:24, 30 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Notability is actually a simple concept. From our guidelines on notability, a topic is notable if it "has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". Since you haven't provided any reliable, independent sources about this game, you haven't shown it is notable. No other criteria matter for the purposes of establishing notability on Wikipedia. That's it. Simple, yes? So the fact that other games have articles doesn't impact notability. The number of times Exploit has been played doesn't impact notability. Only published, independent, reliable sources can establish notability. Hope that helps, Sparthorse (talk) 21:35, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
