Casey's Contraptions

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Removed a bunch of puffy reviews, doesn't appear to stand on its own. Happy to be wrong, or merge into Amazing Alex (which also isn't great). Drewmutt ( ^ᴥ^ ) talk  22:05, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep - No doubt, someone did a terrible, sloppy job at writing this article. But despite their poor efforts, the sourcing is there to meet the WP:GNG. All sources usable per WP:VG/S.

 * I'll also note that the nominator removed a ton of reliably sourced commentary right before the nomination. It was done on the grounds of "puffery", which is legit as far as content/prose goes, but not legit as far as notability goes. Bad call there. Sergecross73   msg me  22:53, 8 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep and rewrite. Metacritic lists plenty of reviews, including at least seven from reliable sources. This is quite enough for an article. IceWelder  &#91; &#9993; &#93; 00:39, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep and rewrite. As per above. --Whiteguru (talk) 10:14, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
