Naraka: Bladepoint

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Naraka Bladepoint

Game that does not satisfy game notability or software notability. Has one reference, which appears to be an independent review, but is in an audience-supported webmag. An article should speak for itself. This article has empty Development and Release sections and is not a useful stub.

Moving this article to draft space would be in order, except that there is already a draft in draft space, which has been declined both as reading promotionally and as duplicating this article. Neither the draft nor the article is ready for article space. The draft has tone issues and does not establish notability. The article does not establish notability and does not have enough information for a stub. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:43, 22 August 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep Draft:Naraka: Bladepoint reads a bit promotional (possible G11 tag?), but I think this should have been moved to Draft: Naraka: Bladepoint 2 (indicating a 2nd draft) before coming to AfD regardless. WP:BEFORE brings tons and tons of non-trivial coverage of the game: Tom's Guide that's referenced in the article right now, GameSpot, NME , PC Gamer , PCGamesN , Jeuxvideo.com , Rock Paper Shotgun , Multiplayer.it , IGN Italy , 4Gamer.net , Edge (magazine) , Shack News . The game easily meets WP:GNG. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 07:55, 22 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep and improve per WP:NEXIST. A convenient litmus test to determine whether a game is subject to enough significant coverage to meet WP:GNG is whether they have a Metacritic score, which requires a minimum of four reviews for each relevant platform. At the time of writing, it has ten reviews, five of which are from undisputedly reliable sources according to WP:VG/RS. Article content does not determine the notability of the subject.

 * Delete per nom. Not enough references. GamedevExpert (Talk to GamedevExpert) 5:37, 23 August 2021 (UTC)  Blocked sock. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 10:47, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep per Haleth. Kou  Dou 22:09, 26 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. A plethora of sources exists and is easily found via WP:VG/SE. The article needs to be rewritten and expanded, not deleted. IceWelder  &#91; &#9993; &#93; 14:12, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep, as there are easily enough sources. This article needs expansion, not deletion.Jackattack1597 (talk) 12:04, 29 August 2021 (UTC)
