NERF wars

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

Non notable game. The three references that are in the article are all from Hasboro. Two are advertisments for products and the other is a listing of games. Google returns youtube, personal websites, videos, advertisments etc. but no reliable sources to establish notability. Jons63 (talk) 04:05, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Seem to be enough reliable sources which give the concept at least a passing mention in Proquest and EBSCOhost:

 * Keep and improve It seems notable enough, but needs a serious re-write, it reads like a game guide --Numyht (talk) 12:55, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep and improve - Nerf wars is just as notable as Paintball or Airsoft... this article just needs some good sources, and a copyedit... - Adolphus79 (talk) 14:04, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. AfD is not cleanup.  Article needs some work, certainly, but considering the above sources, I think there's more than enough to get something workable.  Considering the popularity of campus-based games such as "Humans vs. Zombies", I think there has to be a lot more out there.  Celarnor Talk to me  01:54, 16 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep and Improve. I created this artcle, but I'm not very experienced. I just want to say that compared to many of the other articles nominated for deletion (I've looked at a lot of them), this article is relatively well developed. Sure, it definitely could use work and more references, but I don't think it should be deleted.Fodo96 (talk) 05:28, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
