 * The concern is that there is no reliable sourcing that covers this subject directly (see this guideline). If there are reliable sources, then prove it by linking to them. Esquivalience t 02:37, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Keep I found two scholarly articles about the community: Living in the Hutt Space, doi:10.1016/j.chb.2012.04.006, in Computers in Human Behavior, Volume 28, Issue 5, September 2012, Pages 1681–1691; and, by the same author "The immersive impact of meta-media in a virtual world"        doi:10.1016/j.chb.2011.10.016 Computers in Human Behavior Volume 28, Issue 2, March 2012, Pages 450–455. That they are by the same author makes it a bit weak. The community gets mentioned in other studies of Second Life (which is where it seems to take place) such as, and this book chapter , and there are others if you do a search in Google Scholar. Now, this scholarly information needs to be added to the article, and there should be links between the Second life article and this one. LaMona (talk) 21:17, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, North America1000 08:12, 16 May 2015 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Note that the delete !votes following the first relisting appear to be based upon the state of sourcing in the article, rather than the availability of sources (the first !vote following the relisting is certainly as such). Per WP:NRVE, the state of sourcing in articles does not automatically correspond with a topic being non-notable by default. More commentary is needed about the sources that are available. To facilitate this, the following are links to the two journal articles denoted in LaMona's !vote above: "Living in the Hutt Space: Immersive process in the Star Wars Role-Play community of Second Life", "The immersive impact of meta-media in a virtual world".

 * Delete - the article provides no reliable sources, only a link to a Wikipedia page and the other to gaming pages, including the subject's own website.--Rpclod (talk) 11:27, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - No reliable sources to establish subject as notable.  CookieMonster755   (talk)   07:15, 18 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Only one of the abstracts actually mentions the subject. Assuming the other actually mentions the subject (I don't have a subscription), there are only two articles from the same author in the same year in a journal that does not have a Wikipedia article itself.  That does not seem to be sufficient to show notability.--Rpclod (talk) 17:03, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep – Upon a source review, the overall topic meets WP:N (source examples below). I recommend renaming the article to Star Wars role play and copy editing as necessary. North America1000 08:27, 26 May 2015 (UTC)
 * "Living in the Hutt Space: Immersive process in the Star Wars Role-Play community of Second Life". Pages 1681–1691.
 * "The immersive impact of meta-media in a virtual world". Pages 450–455.

 * Withdraw per sources found, however WP:SK doesn't apply due to outstanding delete !votes. Esquivalience t 20:37, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
