Space Ruckus

Seems like advertising. Weak delete. — JIP | Talk 05:45, 4 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any advertising. Is good. — KITTEN | Talk 05:57, 4 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This is a Wikipedia page for the Space Ruckus project. Are other project pages advertisements? I don't see how that would mark it as advertising. — GG_Mike | Talk 06:12, 4 August 2005 (UTC) <user is the author of article in question> Fernando Rizo T/C 06:33, 4 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep looks okay to me. RR68 06:40, 4 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I don't think it's really advertising, unless the bit about the upcoming game is advertising. But, that part is borderline for violating WP:NOT Sec. 1.8 - Crystalball. The rest, I'd call it vanity, violating WP:NOT Sec. 1.4.2 - No Vanity. The Literate Engineer 06:55, 4 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Conservare, but cleanup is a must. --Merovingian (t) (c) 11:57, August 4, 2005 (UTC)
Delete as per JIP. If more information could be provided on why these freeware games are significant, then perhaps it might merit inclusion. But it doesn't seem to be anything more than an ad for a (despite the text of the article) homebrew game. 134.131.125.49 18:38, 4 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not even going to argue the responses. I just want this deleted. We obviously made a terrible mistake by starting a project page for our project. Even though, I'm sure there's 100's of other pages about game projects and other such things. Let me end by saying though, I had no intention of using this as advertising space. I and others were under the impression that Wikipedia was a place where anybody could contribute information about a project. I know, there wasn't much information on the project page, at the moment, but we were new to this, and just getting started. Anyway, I just want this to go away because if anything, this is negetive attention for the project, which we don't want. Mods, please delete this. — GG_Mike | Talk

http://www.freshmeat.net/ is the source for information on ongoing open-source projects; I'm sure there are similar places for freeware and shareware projects. --Carnildo 23:17, 4 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Looks like a mix of vanity, advertising, and crystal ball. --Carnildo 23:17, 4 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
