[edit] Trilby's Notes

No reliable source to support notability. Fails WP:SOFTWARE. Andre (talk) 22:13, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. -- Kicking222 00:53, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep The series, if not this specific game, has been featured in multiple publications, including (but not limited to) the UK PC Gamer. It's also probably one of the more famous freeware adventure game series. BovineBeast 17:22, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
  • One gaming magazine is not enough to prove notability and importance. Andre (talk) 21:22, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

It's enough to prove that it isn't so ridiculously obscure that it's nothing but a vanity article. Which is enough, really. BovineBeast 12:01, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. Fairly well known and featured in various sources. Jefffire 12:25, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

• Merge Weak keep - My brief Google search found lots of blogs, but also this review. Combined with UK PC Gamer, it makes a borderline case for multiple nontrivial sources.--Kubigula (talk) 22:15, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment- I'm changing my position to merge. I think it would be better to have one longer article on the series of games - it would be a better article and avoid issues on the notability of the individual games.--Kubigula (talk) 19:45, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
• Merge keep - Another review at adventuregamers.com --Amaccormack 22:58, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep as part of notable 5 Days a Stranger series. will likely win multiple AGS awards at the next ceremony. multiple 3rd-party sources included in "external links" section (they should be moved to the "references" section though). and please restore deleted 7 Days a Skeptic article to complete the series. 195.114.94.194 23:39, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
• Merge to 5 Days a Stranger as part of the series. (Radiant) 13:35, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment One article for the whole series seems like a pretty good idea to me. It would solve the current problem of having a page on Trilby and 5 Days, but not one on 7 Days (which was previously deleted as a result of AfD). Does anyone know if the series itself has a name?--Kubigula (talk) 15:29, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
    • The Ben Croshaw pages refers to it as the "John DeFoe series", but Yahtzee himself has referred to it recently on fullyramblomatic.com (when announcing the new 4th game in the series) as the "Days series". It remains to be seen whether DeFoe actually features in the 4th game. Neither of these are very satisfying, but as long as the indiviual games have redirects to the main article, its not vitally important. NB I have an improved version of 7 Days here waiting for reinstatement/merge --Amaccormack 16:03, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
