Exult

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Failure to meet the general notability guideline of independent coverage in reliable sources. Thus fails WP:N, as this is not notable by wikipedia standards. Randomran (talk) 20:57, 28 May 2008 (UTC) Withdrawn by nominator: Article creator found a second reference, and as the nominator I admit that I didn't see the first reference. If it wasn't already notable before, it's definitely notable now. Randomran (talk) 18:53, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep (disclaimer: I'm the article creator). Exult has had non-trivial coverage in press; regrettably, not very much mentioned in the article itself, and even more regrettably, I can't find the exact reference to the Real Game Magazine Article right now. I'm thinking of Pelit. However, there are a few articles in the Web, one of which is even listed in the article: O'Reilly LinuxDevCenter article, and there was also a GameSpy developer interview. Sorry, I can't find a giant massive amount of articles on such a short notice and with beginnings of a headache, but I hope those are enough to satisfy even bare minimums =) --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 17:00, 29 May 2008 (UTC)


 * My bad. Thanks for being so understanding. I added the gamespy reference, so now you have the two references minimum. But even with one reference, this shouldn't have been nominated. I'd actually flagged a few Ultima articles as potential trouble, and when I came back to them I nominated them for deletion. Turns out they had the references, but just in an older format that I wasn't used to. I made the same mistake twice, seeing as I nominated them both back to back. Thanks for digging up the gamespy reference, as the article definitely passes the notability requirement now. Good luck and good editing. Randomran (talk) 18:52, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
