List of furry role-playing games

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Nom per IP request, whose rationale is Unsourced, and there seem to be no reliable sources about this as a topic, let alone that discuss this as a set, failing WP:NLIST. What constitutes inclusion here seems to be complete WP:OR as well. I find myself agreeing; I went looking and there's some minor sourcing talking specifically about furry video games, but I could not find anything talking about them as a group, and the inclusion of games here is wholly unreferenced and smacks of synthesis (just having anthropomorphic animal characters might make a game appealing to furries, but it does not make them furry video games.) Fails NLIST. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 13:57, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete while there is potential for a list of furry video games (specifically made by those in the furry fandom and not just featuring anthro creature, like Sonic), that needs to be well sourced and given a strong definition for inclusion. --M asem (t) 14:17, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

 * I can attest that the two RPGs I ever owned from this list (TMNT, and After the Bomb) were in no way furry-centric; I agree with the nom that they may have appealed to such, and I'm not interested in delving into possible furry-centric sourcing, so I will leave the AfD to others who are willing to do that.

 * Delete per Masem. I was a bit surprised to learn that furry RPGs exist, although if this were to be kept it would need a definitive list criteria (before the article explodes with cruft of non-notable games or fan games that someone made and decided they should put it on a list article so that it gains popularity). ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 16:03, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete There aren't any third party sources and this fails WP:NLIST. I'm going to say this is WP:OR. But to the point of Jclemens, I don't think anyone wants to go on a deep dive for sources. Shooterwalker (talk) 17:07, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete: Haha very funny. Seriously though, this most likely fails WP:NLIST and I can’t see this as an actual article on Wikipedia. There also isn’t a List of furry platform games . Pizzaplayer219TalkContribs 14:47, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Calling a game or some other media "furry" is contentious at the best of times. There are some titles that prominently feature anthro characters, but refuse to even describe themselves as furry, maybe out of fear of alienating typical players. So, this is pretty much entirely original research. It would have to be much better sourced to stand a chance. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 18:36, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete: There could be an argument here that a furry role-playing games page could exist if the sources were there for it (seems a bit light to me right now), but it certainly shouldn't exist in this form factor which is just begging to violate WP:FANCRUFT.
