This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Games: board, card, etc. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Games|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Games: board, card, etc. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

No significant coverage in independent, reliable sources.
Draftified a week ago for the same reason; sources added prior to move back to mainspace were two connected with participants ([1] [2]) and one from the tournament organiser. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 15:15, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

Doesn't start for over a year. Sooo obviously too soon. England have two Test series before this one starts. Retarget to 2025–2027 World Test Championship #England v Pakistan where this is mentioned at target per WP:CHEAP and WP:ATD. Servite et contribuere (talk) 02:43, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

- Comment Other series already are redirects and all the coverage is basically about the announcement. Servite et contribuere (talk) 07:01, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- I don't think it should be delete or redirect. The series is a part WTC 2025-27 Cycle. Keep it as per evidence and sources as enough. England have announced FTP for 2026, and these series is Test (longest format) and it comes under ICC event as mentioned in FTP of ICC. Keep it. Thank you. Goodknowme (talk) 04:22, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- Keep – WP:SNOW. This article should neither be deleted nor redirected. Significant coverage is available in reliable and independent sources, which have already been cited in the article, in addition to official media releases. This series forms part of the ICC Future Tours Programme and the 2025–2027 World Test Championship. As the name itself suggests, it is an upcoming cricket tour that has been planned well in advance. QEnigma (talk) 05:10, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- Keep: the schedule is confirmed, it's part of the ongoing WTC cycle. Don't see any reasons to delete. Vestrian24Bio 12:18, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- Keep We have a lot of articles for future sports events that have been scheduled. The references support this. Per WP:TOOSOON, this passes verifiability. Knitsey (talk) 13:17, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- Redirect the currently known information is that the tour is scheduled, and the dates. This is all covered in the article 2025–2027 World Test Championship #Crowe–Thorpe Trophy (England v New Zealand), and there is no other pertinent information about this series at this time. Thus, a separate article is not warranted until there is significant information about the series more than just fixture dates. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:51, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- Comment I truly think Joseph has truly put out a great rationale, and I think they were words I was looking for in mine. Seeing if anyone agrees with this rationale. Tagging to see what people think. @Goodknowme @Knitsey @QEnigma @Vestrian24Bio. Changing vote/argument is not compulsory, but I do think this is a great rationale, and one that should be at least looked at. Servite et contribuere (talk) 21:50, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

There are insufficient independent in-depth sources to establish notability of this contest. The bulk of the article is an excessive record of previous winners and placegetters. There are a few mentions of individual winners online, but nothing to justify this article. Blackballnz (talk) 05:49, 27 July 2025 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Events, Games, and Malaysia. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 07:59, 27 July 2025 (UTC)
- Weak keep: There's this source which discusses the event. I found other pieces that are likely to contain SIGCOV but they are paywalled: [3] [4]. Plus the coverage of individual winners (e.g. [5]) counts for something even if it's only borderline SIGCOV. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 18:41, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

I can't find news or media sources that would help this subject pass WP:GNG and WP:NFILM. Even after its release, there are no reliable critical reviews available. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DivitNation (talk • contribs) 09:03, 23 July 2025 (UTC)
- Comment Discussion page was created without the {{afd2}} template and not transcluded to a daily log. Fixed now--I have no opinion of my own at this time. @DivitNation: You have made multiple AfD nominations, and while they have been made in good faith, every one of them was malformed and/or did not follow proper procedure. Please read WP:AFDHOWTO, and please fully follow the instructions there for any future nominations so as not to make extra work for your fellow editors. Thank you. --Finngall talk 19:43, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

- Weak Keep: Although there is significant amount of coverage, the mainspace badly needs to be formatted as it doesnt follows WP:GNG despite being notable enough.

Non-notable RPG supplement. This article does list a few references, with a review from a sci-fi magazine, but do not see lasting notability.
The overall topic of gamemaster's screen seems to be notable, but no indication that this specific one is. Natg 19 (talk) 18:57, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

- Merge to Chill (role-playing game). 1 capsule review is not enough for notability. I assume the 2nd ref is a basic description of the product based on the info that it's citing (archive.org has the book but borrowing is unavailable: [7], thanks to Hachette). --Mika1h (talk) 19:58, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- Even with the added sources, I still think it should be merged, the one review is the only source that could be considered significant coverage. --Mika1h (talk) 08:33, 18 July 2025 (UTC)
- KEEP: I have added several sources including that a copy of this product is held in the Strong Museum of Play, confirming this product's notability. I would also add, for the OP who posted "do not see lasting notability", that as per WP:NTEMP, notability does not fade with time. If it was notable in 1984, it is notable (in terms of an encyclopedia) today. Guinness323 (talk) 23:03, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- Keep per sources added by Guinness323. BOZ (talk) 01:19, 18 July 2025 (UTC)
- Keep per above. Nixleovel (He/They) (Talk • Contribs) 04:53, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Mika1h's latest objection following the article expansion has not been addressed.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Left guide (talk) 19:20, 24 July 2025 (UTC)
- Merge: The best source is a capsule review in a long list of reviews of Chill-related products. The recently added sources are a directory entry with borderline SIGCOV (leaning against this being SIGCOV) in a source with unclear reliability and another entry which doesn't contain SIGCOV of the equipment. I confirmed that the pre-existing sources don't have SIGCOV either. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 21:58, 24 July 2025 (UTC)
- Delete – The only genuine coverage here is a short capsule review in Space Gamer #71, while the other references (Heroic Worlds directory note, Le Grog database entry, museum catalogue listing) are routine listings that do not constitute significant independent coverage. Lacking the depth required by WP:GNG and WP:NGAME, this supplement is not notable enough for its own article. Aeon Sentinel (talk) 22:55, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
