Dark Signs (video game)[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Unremarkable video game of questionable notability. No claims or signs of notability, no references. Little significant coverage found in independent reliable sources. Google news search on "Dark Signs" "Vectra Media" shows no results. MikeWazowski (talk) 17:33, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No assertion of notability, no evidence of notability. Can it be speedy deleted? Note that it was speedied twice yesterday, and deleted after an expired PROD last week. Dawn Bard (talk) 17:43, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am the author of the page and I am still working on it. I have added external links now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by George.Trimm (talk • contribs) 18:13, 5 January 2012 (UTC) — George.Trimm (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

Delete. No sign of any notability, nor any reliable thid party sources. The article was already created and deleted multiple times in the past, and it shows no improvement in its current incarnation that would justify not deleting it yet again.Rorshacma (talk) 18:57, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Look at the external links! — Preceding unsigned comment added by George.Trimm (talk • contribs) 19:42, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The only external links provided in the article are only to the project's own pages. That does not fulfil the requirements of having reliable third party sources to support the game's notability.Rorshacma (talk) 20:07, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly, what is needed are independent reliable sources and neither of the two external links qualify. I also checked sites such as Gamerankings and Metacritic to see if I could find any reviews but neither site had an entry for the game. That means that no mainstream gaming site ever reviewed this game. That does not necessaly mean that the subject is not notable but it is a bad sign especially since the game came out in 2006.--70.24.207.225 (talk) 03:34, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Strong delete - no coverage among the sources that are considered to be reliable by WikiProject Video games. Chris the Paleontologist (talk | contribs) 22:36, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I can find no reliable sources in a web search to demonstrate notabiliy or verify article expansion. The archived official webpage mentions the possibility of it being featured in a Portuguese gaming mag (thought doesn't follow it up with a confitmation that I can see).
