Very poorly cited article. Due to the commonality of the name looking for sources was difficult, but searches in News and Books did not uncover enough in-depth coverage to show it meets WP:GNG. Was a redirect, but another editor insists of page re-creation without any attempt at improvement. Onel5969 TT me 18:56, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Significant coverage (multiple reviews) by reliable sources as listed by Mobygames.[1] Other sources available with more research, such as this review in Russian magazine Games.EXE.[2]- hahnchen 19:05, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Hahnchen, WP:SIGCOV does not mean it is covered widely, but that there need to be multiple coverage in detail. I found a PC Powerplay review [3] that is in-depth and reliable. There is a paragraph on Computer and Video Games [4] (with the coverage going very light on the game details, so I can't count this as something that adds to WP:GNG). There is also a coverage on Pelit that is in-depth at [5]. Yes, there are reviews on Moby, but WP:NRV says "the evidence must show the topic has gained significant independent coverage or recognition". I don't see the evidence that there is a significant coverage in those reviews (or if they are about that game), considering that reviews on Moby are added by users and there are no links (with some being unreliable). I may switch to a full keep if I see more, but for now I am undecided but leaning to keep (there are Pelit, PC Powerplay and Game.EXE). Jovanmilic97 (talk) 19:29, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Mobygames lists 24 press reviews and many are from reliable sources. Phediuk (talk) 01:29, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Found the Gamezone (Germany), PC Player (German magazine) and PC Games (magazine) reviews at [6], [7] and [8] (Moby says it was reviewed in the October issue, but it happened in the November one). I think it should pass WP:GNG now with PC Powerplay [9] , Computer and Video Games [10], Pelit [11] and Game.EXE [12]. All seem to be reliable per WP:VG/RS (except PC Player which never had a discussion there, but is likely reliable as well). Kind of surprising there is only 1 really in-depth review of this game in English, but every language is acceptable for GNG. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 11:52, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
onel5969, would this be enough to withdraw the AfD? Jovanmilic97 (talk) 12:01, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
