 * Keep: The announcement, development and failure of this park was covered by the press in some detail. When the article was nominated, it included some press release language and promises that the park would open circa 2017; I edited the article to put everything in past tense, and cut the more peacocky sentences. I added a couple of sources that discuss the struggles of the project from an outsider's point of view:
 * "Jordan-Based RGH Entertainment Vows To Stay Open Amid L.A. Layoffs" by David Robb, Deadline (Feb 25, 2015)
 * "Dreamscapes and Drug Towns: Jordan's Aqaba Is the Future of Segregation" by Ty Joplin, Albawaba (July 10, 2019)
 * Even failed projects can be notable, and this one speaks to economic changes in Jordan. I think that the sources demonstrate notability. — Toughpigs (talk) 22:49, 14 June 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
