GURPS Discworld

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This book of gaming instructions has not received coverage from reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject as evidence of notability under WP:Notability. The text of the article appears to be WP:Fancruft, as it does not contain context or sourced analysis, or detail on a work's development. Fans of the GURPS series will argue that notability is inherited, but this is not the case. --Gavin Collins 08:28, 12 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Redirect to List of GURPS books (as always) . --Craw-daddy | T | 14:41, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

 *  Merge and Redirect  to List of GURPS books. There is no reason for this particuliar book to have a seperate entry at this time. Turlo Lomon 09:20, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Sources added. It is important to note that in addition to this being the only game devised for Discworld, it is an article about all the books in the series, not just one. More refs being worked on. Turlo Lomon 20:45, 15 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge and Redirect, possibly restore later. Percy Snoodle 12:58, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Notable as being the only professional instance of a Discworld RPG. Agree, it needs citations etc., but why not just add the tag rather than deleting a reasonable article? Stephenb (Talk) 13:45, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * We've asked the nominator that in what might be half a dozen other AfDs. I don't think we've received an answer. --Kizor 00:19, 15 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge - into both GURPS and Discworld main articles. The game is somewhat notable when placed within those contexts, but not on its own (as indicated by the nom). Blueboar 13:58, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Please read Village_pump_(policy) before commenting on this AfD - Fosnez 14:38, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep I waited a bit, because of the lack of sources. But it looks now that it has been adequately covered by several reliable sources. --Goochelaar 20:58, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Pant, pant, pant Ok that one is done. Next project please? Turlo Lomon 21:13, 15 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep after Turlo's excellent work. Mango juice talk 14:58, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
