Social City

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Does not meet the general notability guideline. The sources are: a forum, a press release, google, an online vote, a blog, a web stats page, a blog, and a user generated walkthrough. You need reliable sources (not self published, not forums or communities) that are independent of the subject (not the developer, not their press releases, even if republished).

 * Redirect - I don't know the notability of its award, and I agree the article isn't in the best shape, but I truthfully would say Keep if not for this AfD for Café World (which redirects to Zynga). Farmville seems to be the exception for being article-worthy.  CycloneGU (talk) 23:14, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Delete as per Shooterwalker, little verifiable notability exists, except for Disney purchasing Playdom. --Whiteguru (talk) 11:58, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect, to Playdom per WP:PRODUCT; Weak keep if that helps concensus. Gamezebo review and The Game Developers Choice award go towards notability. Some minor sources such as Gamasutra "honourable mention" in the Best Of 2010: Top 5 Facebook Social Games. Doesn't quite have the coverage I want to see for a standalone article.

 * Comment from nominator: if it helps to produce a consensus, I would be okay with a redirect. Shooterwalker (talk) 01:26, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I've summarized the game at Playdom, in preparation. Marasmusine (talk) 12:19, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
