There are no reliable sources for this game, so it fails WP:V. Amarkov blahedits 18:29, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Just non-notable. &laquo;TTV&raquo; (talk|contribs|email) 02:21, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep If you Google a bit you see that it has been the subject of e.g. a couple of high school magazine stories ; which are independent publications per WP:WEB. I'd say it's notably enough. Note that there is also an article on InkLink, which is an identical game. &mdash; squell 03:04, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Reliable sources on which to build an article? -Amarkov blahedits 03:07, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
 * This is addressing the "notability" argument (as distinct from verifiablity). WP:WEB specifically mentions magazine articles as a criterion for inclusion. As to WP:V, enough content in the article (e.g. game rules) is properly sourced by the games' website itself; the proper action would be to find sources for the rest or clean up, not delete the article. &mdash; squell 21:22, 2 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep Per Reliable sources electronic or online sources include the following: CNN.com's All-Star Team of Online Games, PC World's Games Grown Ups Play. Also, Adobe Macromedia uses iSketch as a benchmark application as shown in its Director Application page. On the matter of WP:N, the aforementioned and the distinction of Finalist in The Macromedia UCON 2001 Awards (Interactive Entertainment Category) qualifies it as notable.

 * Keep Well known and notable website. --Barrytalk 15:32, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - Most large websites of this kind have an entry on Wikipedia. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Christopher denman (talk • contribs) 17:18, 3 January 2007 (UTC).
 * Delete - the article does not satisfy WP:WEB despite the Google search result. Anthony  cfc  [ T &bull; C] 01:46, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
 * At least the first WP:WEB criterion is satisfied by the following: CNN.com article, PCWorld article, PCWorld article, print version, TechTV article and TV segment, AskMen.com article, Ehrensenf TV segment. It might also be worthy to cite Alexa trend details and number of sites linking to iSketch. Netscope 05:14, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
