delete for notability concerns unless independent, reliable sources are supplied to verify that this subject is currently notable enough for inclusion. I discussed the kind of sourcing needed with the creator on the talk page yesterday and s/he may yet produce something which might change my opinion, but I'm not sure that these can be supplied at this time. I could not find anything on a search myself. (Google currently produces 3 hits, Wikipedia and a fan forum.) --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 14:00, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment May I suggest that this be incorporated with the Virtual Family Kingdom deletion nomination per WP:BUNDLE? Debate (talk) 14:33, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

comment Well, it's not my nomination, but I will note that while I can see the value of that, I can also see the value of listing them separately. It's possible that the game will prove to be notable even if the support software does not. :) --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 16:09, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

comment Virtual Family Kingdom currently has an Alpha-release fanbase much the size of that of what Disney's Virtual Magic Kingdom was, and there are well over 30,000 registered people awaiting the Beta release. With this caliber of membership, we're thinking it will become as notable as the Virtual Magic Kingdom since it was made almost as a "replacement" for that game. However, I don't oppose the deletion of the VFKBuddy page I stupidly created, since it probably won't achieve the same notoriety as the game ;) Please feel free to kill the VFKBuddy page. 69.231.133.143 (talk) 20:30, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

comment Oops... sorry, that last comment was from me (ParanormalHawkster). I didn't realize I wasn't logged in. My mistake! ParanormalHawkster (talk) 20:32, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

delete for my general stupidity in creating the page. ParanormalHawkster (talk) 23:01, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

comment I'll tag the article for deletion on author request, which should result in an uncontroversial deletion of the article and close of the AfD. (I won't do it myself, since I've commented here.) But there's no stupidity in contributing material to Wikipedia in good faith! We appreciate your contribution. It can be hard to get the hang of the project's conventions, especially when it comes to the notability guidelines. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 23:08, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
