Forthcoming computer game. No evidence of notability. &mdash; RHaworth 17:51, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Here's an argument copied from the talk page, it makes the point well:

""No evidence of notability"? What is the criteria for notability of a video game? Why has the aforementioned Amphibian Man (video game) been allowed to be remain an almost contentless stub while this one - which is actually better - is going to be deleted for its pains? It's published by Ubisoft and is one of the few games announced to be controlled by the new Kinect and Playstation Move systems, and has been noted by several several external sources. I'm sure the article will improve as more information is forthcoming. I'm going rogue and am replacing the deletion notice with the "this article may not meet the notability guidelines for products and services" template, as featured on the even less notable The Exiled Realm of Arborea. 86.158.216.107 (talk) 15:26, 17 June 2010 (UTC)"

 * Redirect to Q Entertainment. The criteria for notability of a video game is the general notability guideline, which asks for significant coverage. At the moment we just have press package regurgitation and a rough release date of Q1 next year. As it is verifiable, we should follow WP:PRODUCT and redirect to the company.

 * Redirect to Q Entertainment's (to be created) section of the game. Not because of its lack of notability, but simple sparsity of information. Although there are many references, they all state the same 3-4 facts, so this article is not likely to lose its stub status until later this year. Once the information is there, it can be moved out of Q's article.Elideb (talk) 10:41, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

Another Q Entertainment game Ninety-Nine Nights II is in a similar state. Enough information is available to make the presence of the page worthwhile. Squogfloogle (talk) 07:34, 18 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep and expand. The game was showcased as one of Ubisoft's major 2010 games and has been covered multiple times in the video game media, therefore sources or notability is not an issue. The article might have been lacking in a few references, but they are there, we just need to include them in the article. For comparison, see similar games that were announced at E3 this year and which each have well-referenced, large articles. ··· 巌流 ? · talk to ganryuu 14:33, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep as above. If I'm allowed to vote as an IP, that is. 86.158.216.107 (talk) 16:09, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes and no :> Yes, IPs can add to the discussion; but no, it's not a vote. Marasmusine (talk) 20:06, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Articles for Deletion is not a vote, it's a discussion. IP's can add to this discussion but there input will probably carry less weight than member's input. --Deathawk (talk) 21:52, 19 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep=It's essentially the sequel to Rez which was somewhat of a cult classic in the video game comunity. Also it opened the UBI Soft Press Conferance meaning it's a big priority for them.--Deathawk (talk) 21:52, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Notable game covered in various media.  Kyle  1278  03:30, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep Lots of press coverage, debute trailer, Won an E3 top 10 award from Videogamer (http://www.videogamer.com/features/article/22-06-2010-1142.html), Shigeru Freaking Miyamoto asked for a personal demo http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=4332091&l=f1d358e6c9&id=288356356543. Lots more press coverage and info than some other E3 titles like Kid Icarus. 81.149.182.210 (talk) 21:40, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
