 * Keep No argument offered by nominator why the existing sources in the article don't indicate notability. It seems well-referenced to me. If the argument is that the article is small, that is WP:SURMOUNTABLE.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 15:45, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Weak keep - I found some minor coverage in Wired about TIGSource's role in launching Minecraft, and added it. The creator also appears to have been improving the article since it was nominated. In the meantime, I found the forum mentioned in several other articles and linked them.  This appears to be very influential in the indie gamer world, but just doesn't have the mass media coverage we'd expect.  It would be nice to see an indepth profile, but its influence on the industry, particularly its role in launching Minecraft, shouldn't be in doubt. And I notified the author to delete the duplicate draft. TimTempleton (talk)  (cont)  19:30, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
