Super Mario World (pirate)
I had put a prod on this for being NN, but it seemed to actually be a real thing, not as hoaxy as I first believed. While the prod was not removed, the creator made an argument for keeping on the talk page, so I felt I should change it to an AfD myself. I am no longer certain whether this game (or whatever it is) warrants a page, but the current page is totally not an article, and so even if there should be an article, it may be just as well to delete and start over later. -Goldom ‽‽‽ ⁂ 04:39, 25 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment - I'm not going to tell you to keep this article because I have not done research on it's factuality. However, this is the kind of thing that harms Wikipedia. If you are not sure of its factuality don't just recommend it for deletion. Research a little. But, I do agree that it is not article because of zero citations.

 * Nominating for deletion is rarely a harmful action: where an article should not be deleted, an AfD is often the necessary stimulus for people to research the topic and improve the article. In this case, it is certainly less harmful than letting the prod run its course and having the article deleted on a technicality without any scrutiny from other editors, don't you think? &mdash; Haeleth Talk 11:20, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. It may be real, but it's not really all that notable.  Unless it's sourced with reliable sources, it's unverifiable.   My google searches turn up nothing.  --ColourBurst 05:50, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per ColourBurst: hard to verify, and probably not encyclopedic even if verified. &mdash; Haeleth Talk 11:20, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment You can find more information on it and others like it here -- zero faults   ' '' 15:47, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete I know for a fact that this exists, however it's not really notable enough to merit its own article. An article discussing the Sonic port to the SNES as well as this port might be a better idea. syphonbyte (t 16:01, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * comment I think it should be kept,just to help make a complete list of games made for the genesis, its an available game for the the megadrive and is part of the history of pirate games made, people like to know about games like these. If it is deleted could i add it with screen shots to a page about cancelled, unreleased and pirate games for the genesis/megadrive, just to let people know about it- —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Esquire931 (talk • contribs).
 * Comment A page like that would probably be a better idea. syphonbyte (t 18:16, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
