Please see the deletion rationale at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of cancelled games for Sony consoles. Group noms haven't gone well for me in the past, so I am nominating other lists like this individually but the same rationale applies to each. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Video games for other noms. I don't see a redirect as useful, but they are cheap and I have no objection to one. // Timothy :: talk 20:54, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for being a WP:GAMECRUFT magnet. Namcokid 47 ^(Contribs) 20:56, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect - The redirect option is better than getting this list deleted. Roberth Martinez (talk) 21:00, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Nom rationale does not apply. The argument to delete on the other articles was that "List of cancelled games on <platforms by company>" was a bad scope, not "List of cancelled games on <platform>". TarkusAB^talk/contrib 02:53, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of cancelled games for Microsoft consoles and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of cancelled video games. This is a good example of how these types of lists work. They collect primary or unreliable sources about the last mention of a game for a platform and show no evidence that their (unconfirmed!) status as a cancelled game is newsworthy/noteworthy, thus creating lists of about a non-defining quality of the game, that it was once announced for a platform and for whatever reason did not appear. Even if the list were to be limited only to rows that are confirmed by secondary sources to be cancelled, this is still not a major trait of either the games themselves or their platform that warrants tracking as a category nevertheless a list.

Merge: The sources are non-RS. This kind of looks haphazardly put together compared to the other lists I worked on. Only the most notable cancelled games should be placed in the main article. Deltasim (talk) 15:13, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge - Unlike the other similar articles, this one is poorly sourced and rather short. Probably better to mention to notable reliably sourced ones at the main article or list article. Sergecross73 msg me 17:27, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - simply not enough reliably sourced material to merge. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 19:26, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
