Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Frosthaven


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was merge to Gloomhaven. The consensus is explicitly for the topic as it stands today; if notability changes substantially, possibly as the result of new media, this discussion is no bar to recreation. Vanamonde (Talk) 17:44, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

Frosthaven

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Information on this article is entirely contained on the Gloomhaven page, save for the Infobox information. Unreleased board game, 50% of the article is about the kickstarter campaign, fails to show independent notability and certainly WP:TOOSOON until separate notability can be shown. Suggest merging infobox into Gloomhaven.  Skipple  ☎  16:19, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Merge with Gloomhaven as a "Sequel" section, as is typical for sequels that are announced but with not enough information. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 19:42, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Merge per the above reasoning. Gloomhaven is clearly notable. Jclemens (talk) 00:08, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm also find with deferring this for a few weeks, and agree that if it is merged, it can be expected to quickly be un-merged once it ships as other RS'es cover it separately. Jclemens (talk) 00:37, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Merge to Gloomhaven. Currently is definitely WP:TOOSOON and fails WP:GNG, but there are RS here worth preserving. VickKiang (talk) 03:26, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Just noting here that the article and sources are already located in the Gloomhaven article. There may be one reference that needs to be transfered.  Skipple  ☎  12:33, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
 * All RS on Frosthaven have been merged to Gloomhaven  Skipple  ☎  18:16, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Gloomhaven - As mentioned by Skipple, it seems like the entirety of this article and all sources are already present at the main Gloomhaven page, so merging is not actually needed at this point. I suspect that once Frosthaven is widely released, there will be enough sources that it can be spun back out into a separate article, but it is currently WP:TOOSOON for this to occur.

 * Eh, it looks like it is (finally) coming out. So reviews will be flying I'm sure.  Given we've had it for a while and it's likely to be notable by the end of the month, I'd rather we not merge it now only to see it changed.   suspend AfD until Oct 1st  is my IAR way forward.

 * Strike that. merge for now with an understanding it's likely to get unmerged sometime late this year or early next year. Hobit (talk) 12:27, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Postpone per Hobit - that seems reasonable, although if it's releasing that soon then there may be reviews over just the next week. BOZ (talk) 23:14, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * That's all right, but current article says The game is scheduled for release in September 2022 despite no reviews now. VickKiang 23:17, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Taking a further look into this, the way it's written is a bit misleading. The game isn't being released to the general public but rather starting to ship to Kickstarter backers. The game is set to release to the public in early 2023.
 * According to this article from Wargamer a couple days ago, A Kickstarter update from August 12 says Cephalofair’s goal is to get backer’s Frosthaven copies in their hands by Christmas 2022. Curtosy ping for and .  Skipple   ☎  23:53, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I'd agree--I can't link to the latest update (blacklist), but it indicates that you're right. I'm okay with a merge for now, !vote changed.  Hobit (talk) 12:27, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
