Air (1977 video game)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Not notable, or even verifiable. For a "major" title with lasting influence, I'm having an extremely difficult time finding a single reliable source. While this claims that the game is lost, I am unable to verify that this has ever existed. The only source I have thus far been able to find is this, which is hardly confirmation of its existence. With the lack of information (a "major" title would surely have something out there on the internet), I can only conclude that either this game vanished without trace long ago, or it's a hoax.

 * Redirect to Kelton Flinn. It looks like this article had a reference at one point that was deleted here. I'm unsure why. In any event, the reference (link to actual page of book can be found here). At a minimum, the article doesn't appear to be a hoax. That said, I don't think there's any evidence it passes muster as notable, and given that it's already mentioned in our article on the game's creator, I think we should redirect there. ɠǀɳ̩ςεΝɡ  bomb  02:51, 5 July 2015 (UTC)

 * Redirect per Ginseng's logic. (Wish I read their post before independently confirming the page's one citation myself...) Redirects to the company or to Air Warrior development would also suffice, but it perhaps belongs most in Flinn's history. There does not appear to be much other coverage on the subject, and it can always spin out summary style if need be. Please ping me you find more (non-English and offline) sources. – czar   18:01, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Kelton Flinn - software (game) article of unclear notability, lacking significant coverage. Game is sufficiently historically notable to justify redirect to programmer, and additional refs can be added there if found.Dialectric (talk) 01:59, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
