 * Weak keep - Page reads like a puff piece and contains references to blogs but there are still enough sources illustrating some notability. Meatsgains (talk) 01:28, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Where are these references that illustrate notability? Perhaps you'd like to elaborate further because I think your assessment is poor. Currently, not a single reference on the article contributes to notability as outlined at WP:GNG. There is no significant coverage about the subject, Indie Game Reviewer, in any of these sources. The majority of sources are not reliable or independent of Indie Game Reviewer. --The1337gamer (talk) 20:59, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete - I've stricken through my original vote. I suppose I should have taken more time to go through each reference, none of which are reliable. I must have done a brief skim of the page's sources and assumed they were. That's my mistake. Meatsgains (talk) 02:07, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
