[edit] Battlecity
A downloadable game that is unreferenced; fails WP:SOFTWARE. Prod removed by an anonymous user without comment. Marasmusine 07:28, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

- Delete Doesn't appear to be notable (184 Google results for "BattleCity Classic", including wiki references); no reference to independant articles. Probably WP:COI. There is also a link on Battle City (video game). Jivlain 12:57, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete Fails WP:V, WP:N and reads like it has WP:NPOV issues, making claims such as 'popular' with no cited sourced to back it up. (And I hate it when Anons un-prod something without giving a reason.) The Kinslayer 16:20, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete as above; this appears to be an independently-coded Battle City (video game) knockoff, with no indication of notability. --Alan Au 01:44, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep This game is not a knockoff, and has no similarity to Battle City (video game) besides that it has player-controlled tanks. Battle City (video game) is referenced because its idea inspired the game, however the game itself bears no resemblance. Please assist me by indicating ways I can improve the article. I will look for additional references. I have played this game since it was released in 1994. At the time, it was the only multiplayer game free on the internet (wish I had a reference to that) that I could find which is why I played it so much and think it deserves an article. Many references and articles became broken links when the game was unavailable for several years until Codemallet brought it back. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Weebo (talk • contribs). — Weebo (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

- Keep, Do not discount the article because an editor is new to Wikipedia and does not follow procedure to the letter. That said, for a published game it should have more references, keep for clean up. --MegaBurn 21:40, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
