After removal of a Washington Post blog source which cites a website of dubious credentials, this article is left with one secondary source: an SMH blog which does not provide depth of coverage. The article makes some dubious claims: its number of downloads, for some reason listed under "In popular culture", is not verifiable; the lead calls it the "oldest form of virtual life", which is ridiculous. It also includes a lot of personal opinion under "Criticisms". I can find no evidence of significant coverage in reliable secondary sources. — Bilorv (talk) 10:47, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
