Gear Antique

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article on a game has had an unresolved notability tag for the preceding five years. Cites no sources. Search of newspapers.com, Google News, and JSTOR fails to find any. Chetsford (talk) 10:48, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

Improper nom by clueless editor The nom apparently believes that tabletop roleplaying rules are "designed to be used for the play of a game exactly like Monopoly or Stratego". Nobody who does not understand the text of a Wikipedia article in its plain meaning can legitimately nominate that article for deletion.

Relisting comment: Given that 4 different options have been mooted, a relist seems in order
 * Keep if more sources can be found, otherwise merge to List of role-playing games by name. BOZ (talk) 18:52, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - it has spent a decade as a stub with no RS. Unless some appear quickly, I think it's probably fair to put this one out to pasture. No prejudice against merging or recreating. - Sangrolu (talk) 13:33, 15 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Move to Draft for now (unless somebody can translate sources from Japanese) and eventually merge content and redirect to a new article on Anime RPGs, an undoubtedly notable topic that will allow relevant content to be brought together in one place. I think this works better than using the List of role-playing games for something other than its intended purpose. Newimpartial (talk) 21:10, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment Although the Japanese version of the article has no citations, I have no way of evaluating the information on that page. BOZ (talk) 20:46, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete -- Without sources here or in the Japanese article, I see no need for an article. I did a quick Google search and found nothing three either. --David Tornheim (talk) 07:22, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
