Furry Pirates


Yet another bit of furrycruft. Of the 131 unique Google hits outside Wikipedia, none appear to be reliable sources. Article is unsourced. No evidence of meeting relevant inclusion guidelines, no verifiable evidence of significance. Guy 09:35, 10 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete Doesn't appear to pass any of the WP:BK guidelines. Out of print, so unlikely to get any more notable. Percy Snoodle 10:03, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per Ben W Bell - meets WP:BK criterion 4. I'm not sure RPG.NET should count as non-trivial, but AFAICT it does. Percy Snoodle 11:21, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
 *  Weak Strong Keep Roleplaying game published by a notable gaming company. A separate product line still listed on Atlas's web page alongside Ars Magica and Feng Shui (role-playing game).  I suspect WP:BK is a poor guideline for RPGs; many of its criteria couldn't possibly apply.  However, a gaming system published by a major gaming publisher seems noteworthy enough to me.

 * Changed vote; Ben W. Bell has shown that this does in fact meet WP:BK criterion 5, while Starblind has produced evidence toward criterion 1. Article is now verifiable and can be cleaned up accordingly. Shimeru 04:23, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Addendum: I've added them to the article and done some cleanup. Shimeru 04:36, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep: Relatively well known role-playing game published by a very well known company in the field. Ben W Bell   talk  15:28, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment How well is "relatively" well? Also, no-one is proposing we delete Atlas Games. Percy Snoodle 15:58, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Notable game, notable publisher, notable artist (Terrie Smith) as well. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  16:01, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. The company *may* be notable, but that does not necessarily mean the game is notable. No sources at all, no assertion of notability. --- RockMFR 22:20, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete furcruft. Lankiveil 01:19, 11 November 2006 (UTC).
 * Comment: Okay people want references. Here is a review on RPG.net the largest and most notable RPG site on the web, and another. It was reviewed in Pyramid, one of gamings most prestigious publications. Ben W Bell   talk  07:18, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong delete -- NN, and seemingly part of a systematic attempt to spam Wikipedia with furrycruft. Pete Fenelon 01:16, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
