Chikyū Kaihō Gun ZAS

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable game from 1992. No sourcing. Fails a number of notability tests. Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 04:14, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand/improve the article. --Hydao (talk) 04:47, 19 December 2012 (UTC)

*Delete - fails WP:GNG, can't find any information on it whatsoever, and the article is totally unreferenced. There's nothing to expand with at present, unless someone with access to Russian sources shows otherwise.Lukeno94 (talk) 09:03, 19 December 2012 (UTC)

 * It will be difficult to find more info about this uber-obscure game. This game seems very rare, and it's expensive as hell:

 * Maybe I can find some info about it on some old magazine, but first I need to ask some people. --Hydao (talk) 09:20, 19 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep - After doing some researching and using the information from a few of Hydao's references, there is enough information about this obscure non-recent Japanese video game to keep the article on English Wikipedia. The only reason this game is obscure in North America/Europe is that the game was never released in North America/Europe. GVnayR (talk) 17:11, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - obviously GVnayR and Hyado are much better at finding information than I am, I'm now convinced that this game is notable enough, even if it is obscure. Lukeno94 (talk) 21:58, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, it looks good now. I'm going to go ahead and close this one. Good work everyone! --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 21:39, 21 December 2012 (UTC)
