Article topic (the video game) lacks significant coverage from reliable, independent sources. (?) It had no meaningful or in-depth coverage in a video game reliable sources custom Google search. A redirect to its mention at Furry_fandom#Role-playing may suffice. If someone finds more (non-English and offline) sources, please {{ping}} me. czar 17:52, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Merge / redirect over to where it's referred to at Furry_fandom#Role-playing, and any additional information being added over there can be brought up at that article's related talk page CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 19:21, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Merge. Most of the references to reliable sources, especially the Wired op-ed, are solely passing mentions. Those can be valuable for rounding out an article (or sourcing a section in a broader topic), but not sustaining an article through AFD. I do not have access to the 1998 San Francisco Bay Guardian article; that has the potential to be determinative, but absent something dramatic, I think a merger is probably the ideal outcome here. I'll note that WP:VG's reliable sources list might not be precisely on point here; I wouldn't consider this a "video game" in the traditional sense, and I certainly don't expect potential sourcing to come from the video game review industry.

Here's the SFBG article. It isn't supportive; it doesn't mention Tapestries. (It'd be a fine support piece for FurryMUCK.) —chaos5023 (talk) 17:59, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
