Desert Combat Extended
I prodded this article as non-notable for being about a game mod that "appealed to a small niche of Desert Combat players". The anonymous user who challenged the PROD simply changed "small niche" to "large group". But I still find no convincing indications of notability, or sources. Anyone care to comment? No vote from me. Sandstein 06:23, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable game mod -- T B C [[Image:Confused-tpvgames.gif|18px|]] ???  ???   ??? 06:49, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Just because a whole ton of people didn't play it doesn't mean it's not a noteworthy addition. The original website went down because of internal conflict between the development team and the webspace sponsor as far as i know. DCX was awesome, it deserves to have its own page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.254.28.238 (talk • contribs)  07:15, 18 March 2006

 * Redirect to Battlefield 1942 - Feezo had outlined the large amount of google hits, but not really sure if thats notable enough to have its own artcle. Perhaps some of the information from this article can be moved onto the main article of Battlefield 1942. -- Arnzy (Talk) 08:49, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Looks notable enough &mdash; 56000 Google hits. Feezo (Talk) 08:43, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - or merge into Desert Combat. Either is fine. Bobby P. Smith Sr. Jr. 12:18, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge - Into Desert Combat--Zxcvbnm 14:14, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - if you check the Comparisons_of_Battlefield_1942_mods and then consider the fact that DCX was one of the very few mods with a good Single Player base (that therefore didn't get listed on online servers), you'll see that it's very worthy of having it's own page, there's many smaller mods that also have one.

 * Keep, or Merge with Desert Combat. Kraf 15:04, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, or at worse merge with signifigance into the main DC article. At last count, Fieplanet shows 64,635 downloads for DCX .9
 * Keep, or at worse merge with signifigance into the main DC article. I belive that this article is a good article. those who know nothing of the games would ask for it to be removed and those who know nothing of mods would merge it with battlefield 1942. as i said earlyer Keep this article or Merge it with Desert Combat as a "Similar Mod" although thats simply not the case. At last count, Fieplanet shows 64,748 downloads for DCX .9 MediaRocker 16:47, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge - with its own section into the main DC article.
