Ironclads series

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I prodded it with the following rationale: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing General notability guideline nor the more detailed Notability (companies) section for products requirement. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar." It was deprodded by User:Andrew Davidson with no meaningful rationale (despite the fact that I explicitly asked for one in the PROD). PS. As far as I can tell, the term 'Ironclad series' is unofficial. The article contains an unsourced entry for one game in this 'series'. A check at BGG reveals there is one more game published by the company with the title 'Ironclads' but again, any grouping of such titles into a series seems WP:OR (even the publisher owns description doesn't mention such a series (see HoI page; I couldn't even find the official page for the DW game), plus the topic fails WP:GNG as I couldn't find any reliable reviews for this 'series' as a whole. If individual games from the series are notable (dubious; those are very niche titles with no reviews listed on the linked BGG pages) then they can have their own separate pages created. PPS. We could consider redirecting this to the more notable and related Great War at Sea series, except I still can't find any RS that describes those two new games as a 'series'.
