Where's Samantha?

Zero reliable sources in the article, strong doubts in the notability of the subject. Ymblanter (talk) 07:42, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Comment Metacritic lists 5 reviews . Of those 5, WP:VG/RS evaluated one of them as reliable (Gamezebo), one as unreliable (KeenGamer), two as inconclusive (Pure Nintendo, Switch Player), and one has not yet been evaluated (Shindig). Are the inconclusive or unevaluated sources reliable? If at least one of them are, then the article could be kept (and if 2+ are, then it should be kept). Otherwise, it should be deleted.

 * Delete Article is in a state that is poorly sourced and the available sources do not inspire confidence that it passes WP:GNG, especially since it has only one source that is clearly reliable. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 05:34, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Weak keep There seems to be enough sources for an article, but only just. Some of these sources may need to be evaluated for reliability as they haven't had the chance yet, but they look promising.Coin945 (talk) 16:21, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

 * I usually avoid "coming soon" and "out now" articles as they are rarely WP:SIGCOV. If a game cannot even muster 3 reviews it is probably not notable enough. GameZebo is the only one listed as reliable on WP:VG/S which tends to be rather thorough in regards to any and all trustworthy sites. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 17:53, 19 April 2022 (UTC)

 * weak keep I'm not thrilled with the sources, but we have enough to meet WP:N and plenty with which to write an article. Hobit (talk) 06:33, 23 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete - Insufficient substantial coverage to pass Notability. I was going to say merge into ROKiT Games & Respect Studios iaw WP:PRODUCT, but there's no such article to merge it into.  So delete it is.  Springnuts (talk) 08:19, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete if additional RS are not identified, as more would be needed to justify notability Also, why are you asking? Samantha's right here... :) → Sammi Brie  (she/her • t • c) 23:42, 23 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete or draftify if someone wants to take a stab at improving this using sources above, assuming they meet WP:VGRS. Note that at current this is a stub that uses mostly unreliabe sources and fails WP:GNG at face value. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 16:49, 10 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Weak keep Looks like Coin945 dug up enough sources to demonstrate its notability. Not ideal but at least we could write a short article about it, if we choose. Haleth (talk) 01:37, 11 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Keep Sources listed in AFD are sufficient to meet GNG. Jclemens (talk) 07:44, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment This AfD is on week 3 of listing with very even conensus. I am not sure what the outcome of this article will be, As of now, none of the suggested sources were even added to the article, but some of these suggested sources are reliable. Right now I cannot identify a good resolution for this article.  PerryPerryD  Talk To Me 14:31, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
