[edit] Film Tycoon

This is a multiple nomination, here are the other articles nominated:

• The Other Film Tycoon
• Cosmic Universe
• Hollewood Tycoon
• Low Calorie Film Tycoon

I first encountered this set of articles after seeing Cosmic Universe get unprodded. Although these articles appear in Template:Tycoon Computer Games, they are not Tycoon Computer games. These are not published software titles, instead, they are role playing gaming websites. I do not think that these forum games are notable. These articles are about the many iterations of a single game, the current iteration is The Other Film Tycoon. This game has 58 members in it's forum, and 32 players on their leaderboard. These are not popular games, at very very best they should be merged together, but I feel they should be deleted. - Hahnchen 01:01, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

• Oppose The popularity or relevance of the off-shoots and original game are not whats important. Whats important is wikipedia is an online encylopedia. What if someone heard Film Tycoon mentioned and wanted to read up on it? Shouldnt encyclopedias hold ALL information if at all possible? 68.4.158.160 11:12, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
  • There is a limit to the amount of information the Wikipedia servers can hold. To ensure that the 'most important' topics get covered first, there are a series of guidelines and criterta subjects need to meet to be included. The one relevant to your online role paying games would likely be Wikipedia:Notability (websites), although Wikipedia:Notability (software) may also apply. If it can be proven, through the use of verifiable sources, that these online games meet the above, along with the more general Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines, then there should be no problems in keeping the articles in some form. -- Saberwyn 11:21, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above. --Khoikhoi 17:16, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
• Oppose Wikipedia must try to be as complete as possible, so also games like filmtycoon need to be at wikipedia. Also, filmtycoon is growing and when the original filmtycoon restarts it will get a lot more members and google hits . 62.145.208.215 08:09, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
