 * weak delete, the reliable sources I've found don't really seem to be in depth coverage, focusing mainly on the creator. Thryduulf (talk) 09:38, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Merge with World of Warcraft. While the CNN link is compelling as far as notability goes, and millions of users of WoW may find this site useful, this article starts off well for the first paragraph, then goes into self-promotional and otherwise why-do-I-care detail about its videos, rather than the site itself. Not a WoW player, but if I were, I'd want to know about this site--but I'd hardly look for it by name on Wikipedia. I think the first paragraph, with an external link, belongs under the Community tab in the WoW article. SithToby (talk) 21:02, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge - I have to agree with SithToby - one, and only one, item of coverage usually indicates the subject is more suitable for inclusion in a broader topic (N). Perhaps World of Warcraft; a short paragraph will suffice. Marasmusine (talk) 10:18, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep - Here's one from Massively.com (a "situational" source according to WP:VG/RS). There's also one from TechCrunch which was later picked up by The Washington Post. The rest are mostly press releases as far as I can tell. SharkD (talk) 02:42, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Well found, but they both seem a bit press-releasey to me. Marasmusine (talk) 15:03, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, it is unlikely to be included in the article World of Warcraft due to notability, thus redirecting to it would not be beneficial. I say redirect, because there are already several fan projects which redirect to that article after having AfD's closed as merge with no mention of them in the target. --Taelus (talk) 16:03, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
