Article tagged with notability and refimprove since August, no change. Couldn't find and reliable, significant coverage to pass WP:GNG. Recommending WP:SALT as well since it has been recreated multiple times without being able to pass notability guidelines. --Teancum (talk) 14:50, 8 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - the article's sources are unacceptable. I could not find any other coverage beyond forum chatter. I agree with SALT, as the article has been deleted 8 times already. Marasmusine (talk) 11:02, 10 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Concur, I can't find any reliable sources. That said, a notable retail game being restored in this manner might have some notability - but only when it is released. Even then, you'd need significant coverage in reliable sources to pass muster. I agree, also, that this should be SALTed. This doesn't mean that an article (with sources showing notability) couldn't be put together at a later date, but just that you'd need consensus at deletion review to do so.
