From the "notability" criteria:

"Web-specific content is notable if it meets any one of the following criteria:

The content itself has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the site itself. This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper and magazine articles"

The RAM Raider has PRINT articles published in the mainstream and specialist British gaming press. The RAM Raider is also extremely well known in the UK - telephone any UK games magazine and ask if they've heard of the author. The website is also referred to in this wiki entry as a "publication of note." A Google search for "RAM Raider" will also reveal how well known the site and author are. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skizm (talk • contribs)
 * Delete not notable as far as I can tell. Some independent references might help.  Skizm, if you find and put references that are WP:RS into the article I'll reconsider. delldot | talk 01:14, 27 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Do Not Delete Comment: Refer to British publication MCV issues 18/11/05, 22/09/06, 29/09/06, 06/10/06, 03/11/06. MCV is published by Intent Media and satisfies the WP:RS criteria. Other articles written by the author can't be disclosed as the blog is written under a pseudonym, but the articles written by the author with the pseudonym satisfy the WP:WEB criteria. User:Skizm
