List of PlayStation Portable emulators

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

A list of redlinks, each of which is a non-notable piece of software. This subject is already covered in PlayStation Portable homebrew, but none of these emulators have any sort of individual notability. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 00:46, 18 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Please help fix the article rather than removing it. The list alone has some value, which would be lost if it were deleted and turned into a redirect, it simply requires the addition of links. So help fix it.86.94.42.96 00:59, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Links to what? If they were to external sites, it'd be a web guide, something Wikipedia is not. If they were links to Wikipedia articles, well, none of those articles exist, and they'd likely be deleted as non-notable if they did. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 01:01, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, full of OR, and Wikipedia is not a directory. — Krimpet (talk/review) 04:16, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: Wikipedia is not a directory. The article is also entirely unsourced.  Seicer  (talk) (contribs) 06:16, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong delete, potential linkfarm to illegal content. --SeizureDog 09:57, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm confused. Wouldn't that make every emulator article on Wikipedia an candidate for deletion if it links to illegal content? As far as I am aware, as long as the emulators don't use the same code as the machine they are emulating, they are legal. --tgheretford (talk) 14:10, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * According to US laws, emulators are perfectly legal on the basis that reverse engineering ins legal (as far as copyright concern here). (This is the reason that emulators does not include the BIOS of the original system. SYSS Mouse 21:30, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
