Game panel

 * – ( View AfD View log )

No evidence that this concept is notable. A PROD with the reason "No sources and no evidence the subject meets the general notability guideline" was removed by an IP editor with no clear explanation. JamesBWatson (talk) 17:43, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
 * merge: A cursory search finds no publications using the term. Suggest merge into some on-line gaming page, maybe Game server.  Otherwise this seems more of a dictionary entry than an independently notable concept (WP:NAD). Speed8ump (talk) 18:08, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually, my first thought was to merge too, but when I looked at it more closely I wasn't sure there was any content worth merging. I have searched, and failed to find any evidence that the expression is in sufficiently general use to justify its inclusion in Game server or any other article. The expression does exist, but its use is largely confined to download and promotional pages for particular examples, a few forum posts asking about them, etc. If anyone can produce suitable sources indicating that the term has enough currency to justify its inclusion in another article then a merge will be fine, but I haven't seen such sources. In any case, the content of the article is really no more than a few dictionary definitions. JamesBWatson (talk) 10:47, 4 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete. The article was created as a promotional tool for http://gamecp.com/. Lack of significance, importance, or notability as a standalone article.  Cind. amuse  22:06, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete per User:Cindamuse. A case of WP:ADVERT, and I couldn't find significant coverage from reliable sources. --Teancum (talk) 13:56, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
