I can understand why an article titled "[xx] universe" would exist. It would help readers understand the intricacies of the fictional universe that are too in-depth to list in the main article. For example, look at Dune universe. It helps explain the setting of the novels. Now look at this article. What is the reason for its existence? It consists of two sentences summarizing the game, followed by a list of sequels and novels. There's nothing here that couldn't be mentioned in passing in the Everquest article.

- Delete per nom. I agree with the comparison with the Dune Universe page as an example of how something like this should be done. This page has been around since 2004 and has not expanded. The article Everquest deals with this well enough, and has a box thing full of links at the bottom so you can easily navigate to Everquest-related articles. This page therefore serves no purpose, and hardly says anything. Richard75 (talk) 01:42, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete With the lack of sources exist the lack of notability. Readers who do not play the EverQuest series would most likely have little interest in this article. IAmSasori (talk) 17:22, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
