NBA 2K (history)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Contested PROD (see ). I repeat the reasons behind the PROD: Redundant to the NBA 2K (series) article, but with original research included, namely the "Notable gamers" section. Moreover, the creator of the article is writing about himself in a rather self-promotional tone. I don't see anything relevant that can go into the NBA 2K (series) article here. --MuZemike 21:52, 28 July 2012 (UTC)

I wrote it for the porpose of linking it to NBA 2K (series) in the history section. I havent finished working on it yet, as I created it yesterday. And Im not writing about myself. User:Jay Starz (UTC)
 * The user is the same person in that section, as seen in an earlier version of his userpage here; he removed it after that was discovered. --MuZemike 22:18, 28 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete I'm amazed that this even got as far as an Afd. The entire article is an eyesore. The article's Notable Gamers section is A) Not cited and B) Presents only opinions C) Is highly in favor of one party. In that way it is unambigous advertising and can be marked with CSD G11.

 * While it does not appear that this will be kept baring a significant rewrite the name should be changed to something like History of the NB 2K series if it is kept in the end.--70.49.81.140 (talk) 03:00, 29 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete as it stands. No references worth a second look (or a first look in the case of the Facebook link...). Promotional material present. Peridon (talk) 11:02, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
