Titanic: The Ride

Someone's "ride" from a home roller-coaster simulator. Not even CLOSE to notable. PROD tag added, but removed without comment by creator, who has the identical content on his user page. Calton | Talk 14:01, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment by page author: This is in no way an advertisement. It was created because it is a revolutionary step in online game play and has become the most popular ride with the computer program. It has been viewed over 120,000 times. Please don't delete this thread, I think it is worth saving. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pottertheories (talk • contribs) 14:03, August 30, 2007 (UTC) — Pottertheories (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
Delete Hard to imagine any notability here. Someone did something. Nice effort, not notable. MarkBul 14:30, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete per MarkBul and nom. /Blaxthos 14:35, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:MADEUP. I don't think this is really anywhere close to passing WP:WEB. --Bfigura ^(talk) 18:39, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Wikipedia is not for things made up at school, home, etc. No reliable sources to indicate notability. Tony Fox (arf!) 20:01, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete non-notable, made up one day. Nice graphics, but anyone with a bit of knowhow can produce those. -- Roleplayer 20:11, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No Delete: I think this is legitimite and it seems like it took a lot of work to do this project. I don't know, maybe give it a chance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Stonecreek777 (talk • contribs) 14:33, August 31, 2007 - — Stonecreek777 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- I know WP:EFFORT refers to the articles themselves, but it kind of applies here. "Someone worked hard on it" is not a reason to keep. People work hard on lots of things, that doesn't make them notable. Smashville 16:45, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I'm leaning away from deletion; this is popular. I think it should stay. At the same time, it doesn't seem like something that is big enough to have it's own article. Perhaps it should merely have a mention in the Titanic (1997 film) article, seeing as it is based upon the film. EDIT: also, I keep seeing people quoting the WP:MADEUP rule, which is odd, because it states clearly in the article that it took eleven months to produce. -FiNiX —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.125.235.105 (talk) 03:18, 2 September 2007 (UTC) — 209.125.235.105 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Comment WP:ILIKEIT really isn't a great reason to keep something. And just because it took WP:EFFORT doesn't make it notable. Please see Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions, and WP:WEB for what would make this notable. --Bfigura ^(talk) 04:21, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
'Keep i think we should keep the page, its really interesting! --Yankeesrj12 16:10, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:INTERESTING is not a reason to keep an article. There are two WalMarts two miles apart on the same street where I live...that's interesting, but it doesn't warrant a WP article. Smashville 17:16, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Wikipedia is not a place for made up non-notable rollercoaster rides. Smashville 17:18, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
