Mystery Case Files: 7[edit]

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

This page has no information and no references - and though I am sure the game will come out, this article would invariably have to be completely rewritten and renamed. It is a prime example of using Wikipedia as a Crystal Ball, and gives the impression of having been written for promotional reasons. I am reluctantly putting it here instead of nominating for speedy deletion, which is where my instinct would have me put it. -Addionne (talk) 13:02, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Crystal ball. Notability has not been established through significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. Cindamuse (talk) 13:28, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Crystal-balling; if the only thing to say about a subject is *shrug* then it doesn't need an article. Someone another 16:09, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Assuming the release is verifiable a redirection to the series article might be a good idea.--76.66.182.164 (talk) 21:39, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I would normally suggest a redirect, per WP:PRODUCT, but in this case we don't even know the game's title, so not a viable search term. Marasmusine (talk) 11:16, 20 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Wait for two weeks for the following reasons:
- According to to this (Oct 12) interview from the Mystery Case Files facebook page there is a game "currently in development" although it could be in its early stages.
- In this thread on the Big Fish Games forum (created two days ago for discussion about MCF7) the moderators say that the website is not up to date.
- There have been clues about a continuation to the Return to Ravenhearst storyline in a previous game.

I think the best thing to do is wait for two weeks to see if any new information appears. George (talk) 23:49, 20 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Crystal ball and no proof of notability. Lifetime faker (talk) 05:20, 21 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
