[edit] 3rd shinobi wars

3rd shinobi wars (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Naruto-based modification for Warcraft III. Can't find any substantive coverage of the mod in reliable sources, so it doesn't appear to meet the notability and verifiability guidelines for inclusion. Was proposed for deletion by User:Dreaded Walrus, but the prod was removed without explanation. NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 04:01, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete. A non-notable videogame mod. Could I also bring attention to Naruto Uzumaki SW, an article technically created by the same person - there is no need to bundle, as the prod has not been removed from that article, but that article is about a character from this mod (basically the mod's version of Naruto Uzumaki), which I certainly can't see being worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia.

  • Delete, non-notable game mod, written more like a game guide than an encyclopedia article. JIP | Talk 11:19, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. Wikipedia is not game guide, and non-official mods are not notable. Maybe this article is appropriate in some wikia, but not Wikipedia. Zero Kitsune (talk) 15:17, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
Actually, some third-party mods can be notable. See Defense of the Ancients, for example, a featured article on a third-party mod for the same game. See also List of Half-Life mods and List of Half-Life 2 mods for just two lists of mods, many of which are third-party. Dreaded Walrus t c 15:55, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Well I'm confused, There a page on dota, This is a popular game, I don't see whats wrong with this page, the guy just trying to show information on it all, like other game pages such as kingdom Hearts that is a popular game the people who made it just trying to show facts about it —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.166.16.191 (talk • contribs)
    • Re-read my nomination. Popularity isn't the only thing that matters here; a subject also has to meet the guidelines for inclusion in Wikipedia, Wikipedia:Verifiability and Wikipedia:notability. The games you mention, as well as DOTA, meet those guidelines; I can't find any evidence that this mod meets the guidelines I mentioned. NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 21:50, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
    • Confuse:First improve this article, then it can be kept.--Freewayguy T C 03:35, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - non-notable mod. No reliable verifiable secondary sources to demonstrate notability. Sephiroth BCR (Converse) 09:20, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
