2nd nomination for these books of gaming instructions:


 * GURPS Alternate Earths
 * GURPS Alternate Earths II

Neither have any independent sources to demonstrate notabilty per WP:N. The articles contain rambling WP:POV with no reference to the books.--Gavin Collins 08:24, 3 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Comment May I have a single example of the "rambling WP:POV with no reference to the books"? I suppose you are not referring to the overlong summaries of the alternate earths as described in the manuals, are you? --Goochelaar 13:34, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Note notice of this Afd has benn placed on the Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Role-playing games discussion page. KTo288 01:08, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment, I believe calling RPG books "books of gaming instructions" is somewhat offensive to gamers. I know it certainly offends the living daylights out of me. It makes me feel you're comparing them to The Annotated Rules of Quidditch or something. --Agamemnon2 12:02, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Has the nom any idea what these books are, has he seen one, looked through one. These books are not gaming instuctions, no where in these source books is there any thing resembling, if this happens do this, and if that happens than do that. These are source books, with alternative timelines, technologies and worldview of a world of the mind that differs from ours because of that alternative timeline technology and history. Oh well, I don't think he cares.KTo288 00:53, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
