The result was   delete. I won't comment on the intention behind Lucia's nom or ChrisGualteri's opposing view (they've been imposed an IBAN since the start of the AfD); I find Gm545's suggestion appropriate (I will userfy upon request) and have faith that if NARH couldn't find sources establishing independent notability, then this at best merits a mention in Phantasy Star's article; I find consensus to delete but I'll use my discretion to recreate and redirect as a valid search term. ☺ ·  Salvidrim!   ·  &#9993;  04:44, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Phantasy Star Gaiden

I've looked and there is simply not enough development or reception information to make this notable. All sources used here are based off in-game screenshots. Lucia Black (talk) 08:09, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Articles for deletion/Log/2014 January 2.  — cyberbot I  Notify Online 08:24, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep I've cited Famitsu, Gamez, Dengeki and the Japanese Pocketgamer site which hosts a basic guide. There is likely plenty of coverage in period magazines and additional info not yet found. Though I think the greatly improved coverage is a big step in the right direction. I am also working on this article, including prior to its nomination.

 * You've said things in the past regarding having such sources, and you've never provided when it came to prove what you've stated.Lucia Black (talk) 08:40, 2 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete. The description in Phantasy Star is sufficient. Most of the references just mention it in passing. If you want to work on it, I'd suggest a move to userspace or WP:Incubate until it's ready for prime-time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gm545 (talk • contribs) 11:58, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. I personally sought sources for all three of these Phantasy Star articles and have found nothing to use. Not to brag, but I am fairly decent at sourcing rather obscure subjects. - New Age Retro Hippie (talk) (contributions) 20:14, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
