Infamous Adventures

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

The only independent references are from one source; Adventure Gamers site, and appear to be press releases, thus do not satisfy WP:N. Sources posted on the talk page are similarly press releases (and a YouTube clip which doesn't mention this company at all.) During a web search, I did turn up one possible source, not sure if this is sufficient on its own. Marasmusine (talk) 18:56, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete Insufficient notability. Article needs substantial coverage from independent sources and there doesn't seem to be any. ChildofMidnight (talk) 06:44, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. The 1 source does show notability as it is from a reliable review site, as the work Space Quest II is notable. じん   ない  09:24, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
 * My thinking is that it can be mentioned in a broader article, if this is the only significant coverage, per N. Marasmusine (talk) 10:57, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Then why not perform a merge? - Mgm|(talk) 12:42, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I'll try that if the concensus is to keep this (verifiable portion of) information. I'm still leaning on this side of delete. Marasmusine (talk) 13:05, 8 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep. Notable Sources:

 * I'm looking through the links now, let's see.
 * Joysiq.com -> Not significant coverage (press release)
 * Eurogamer -> to quote "And yes I did just rip that bit off Wikipedia..."; we can't reference a source that itself references us, or we get a walled garden.
 * Digg.com -> Not significant; merely links to the official website
 * uk.gamespot.com, imdb and gamefaqs -> "official press release", and basically empty directory entries; no significant coverage.
 * Thanks for searching for sources, but these aren't usable. Marasmusine (talk) 14:00, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Weak keep: Just to clarify, though the Eurogamer source can not be used to cite the content, I believe it still qualifies as a reliable source making note of a subject. Though the rest of sources don't build a strong case. I say weak keep because this is not a work of fiction, but a real-life company. Otherwise, I'd say delete.
