Tagged for notability since July, I am putting this article up for discussion. There are no reliable sources cited, or even references, just five external links (two of which fail WP:RS anyway). ArcAngel (talk) ) 12:21, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

So you're saying that 3 of the 5 ELs are RS'es? That would mean it met the GNG, since RS'es existing is sufficient (ideal if they're included, and better as references than ELs). I'm not sure that's what you meant, though. Have you tried to find any sources? Jclemens (talk) 18:58, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No, that isn't what I am saying. I'm saying that two for sure are unreliable sources. I am unsure about Kongregate or GameFaqs. The official website is not independent of the subject, which is the definition of a RS. It's fine as a primary source. And I did try to find sources and didn't see a whole lot in my searching.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete - I agree with nominator's rationale. Regarding the two sources ArcAngel was unsure of, I judge neither to be acceptable - Kongregate appears to be a commercial site with collected links to "free" games and GameFAQs has been discussed here --> Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard#GameFAQs_and_Gamespot_shared_database with one of their contributors stating the site is not suitable as a Wikipedia source.

Delete Fails WP:GNG. I found only two sources, one trivial: MMOHuts.com (click review), MMORPG.com. --Odie5533 (talk) 05:15, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
