Non-notable event. No independent references. Very small attendence by notable parties. Google shows only forum posts. PROD removed with a justification related to Iron GM, which doesn't appear to be notable. Stuartyeates (talk) 22:46, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - no references provided and a quick search brought up nothing of note - certainly nothing in news sources that could be considered "coverage" of any sort. On that basis I would suggest it wouldn't meet WP:CORPDEPTH as an enterprise or WP:EVENT as an event. For the record, I don't think this is a case of demolishing the house while it is being built as the original author has suggested in edit summaries - the burden is on the original author to provide references, this has not been done and I cannot see that there is any way it could be done given the lack of coverage.

 * Following up on the WP:DEMOLISH comment: I'm an active new page patroller, but patrol 10 days into the log and almost always (including in this case) use a WP:PROD with creator notification to give the creator and/or interested parties a two-week window to build the solid foundations of an article.

 * Delete per above. It's possible that there's coverage from the pre-Internet days, but I've found nothing that would be considered enough in-depth coverage in reliable sources that would show it passes notability standards. This just isn't notable, despite it having run for so long.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 08:36, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
