Selfie Slam

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

New, not yet notable (if ever), only sources seem to be blogs. Inclusion is more spam than encyclopedia article. Dennis 13:26, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Hello Dennis I've accepted this article. Would you read the one do not delete just read: http://www.rovio.com/en/news/blog/540/selfie-slam-out-now-in-finland-sweden-and-canada i've found it. Please accept the nomination? MandatoryTeaser (talk) 13:30, 16 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete per Dennis. Userfy for 30 days since it seems that there may be sources coming in that might establish notability since this stub was created as WP:CRYSTAL. — &#123;&#123;U&#124;Technical 13&#125;&#125; (e • t • c) 13:31, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - The one reference doesn't support the statement which it is being used to reference (the release was today yesterday, not early 2014), and it is a link to the developers' own website. --David Biddulph (talk) 13:44, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Don't delete Found this website User:David Biddulph: http://selfieslamgame.com and i know that can i accept this nomination please! :( MandatoryTeaser (talk) 14:03, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep I found this official website at: http://selfieslamgame.com it appears might be confirmed. MandatoryTeaser (talk) 01:33, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Thank you, however, this is an official site, and thus a primary source; it does not help to establish notability, which requires coverage in independent, reliable sources. :) ☺ ·  Salvidrim!   ·  &#9993;  01:42, 17 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep The game just soft launched yesterday, so video game articles are coming out today that prove it is notable, such as Selfie Slam News.Frmorrison (talk) 14:20, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I would argue against that being an independent and reliable source fit for demonstrating notability, and instead being little more than a fancy blog that publishes anything for page hits. Dennis 14:49, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep, at least wait a few days - Released less than 24 hours ago, SIGCOV in reliable sources is trickling in:
 * from Computer and Video Games (reliable per WP:VG/S)
 * from Pocket Gamer (reliable per WP:VG/S)
 * from TouchTapPlay (never discussed at WP:VG/S)
 * I'm sure there'll continue being more. ☺ ·  Salvidrim!   ·  &#9993;  20:27, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
 * After giving it some time, I agree with Czar and propose a Merge into Rovio Entertainment - add a few words about the game, with the sources found here, and redirect this title. ☺ ·  Salvidrim!   ·  &#9993;  13:14, 23 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Rovio's article as cheap search term. Nearly a week later and the only two reliable sources (per a WP:VG/RS search) are the ones Salv pointed out. I originally advocated for userfying it on the article's talk page, but I'm thinking now that it's better covered on Rovio's and it can always spin out summary style. czar ♔   15:20, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Rovio per Czar; the RS refs are fairly thin, with only a few sentences actually about the game. A few are more about the company than the game, despite their titles, so a redirect makes sense until more substantial sourcing appears.Dialectric (talk) 12:26, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
