American Revolutionary War (video game) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Article is advertising for a non-notable RPG. Neither the article itself or the links provided give any indication of notability. Half of those given are either run by the article creator or associated with him, and google returns nothing. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 03:47, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

• the game came out like 4 days ago, do u expect Google to have crawled all the fan sites in 4 days?--Xgmx (talk) 05:06, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

  If the game was notable it would have Google hits months in advance, an entry in IGN, or anything like that. It does not. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 05:09, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

  Just answer this question, do you even play the game? Because I do, I got it on the day it came out (December 14, 2007), I waited outside GameStop for 2 hours in line for this game. When I got it, I created an account, and joined as the United Colonies (which is the United States in the begining of the game).--Xgmx (talk) 05:12, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

  I don't need to play the game to know GameStop doesn't sell it. Lying will not help. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 05:13, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

  Check the Gamestop.com store.--Xgmx (talk) 05:15, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

  Careful what you ask, people might actually do it. This isn't sold at GameStop. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 05:17, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

  Actaully it is, u can preorder The French Conversion, it says so on the official website.--Xgmx (talk) 05:19, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

  There's no point in continuing this nonsense, as you obviously are not even trying to form a valid argument. If you can find something to satisfy WP:N, I'll bother replying. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 05:23, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

hope u don't mind, but I invited some of my fellow gamers here to help convince u otherwise.--Xgmx (talk) 05:24, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

OMG I love this game--68.228.47.249 (talk) 05:35, 24 December 2007 (UTC)— 68.228.47.249 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. .

ya me to, so I'm defending it--Xgmx (talk) 05:40, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

• Delete No assertion of notability, a Google search of "American Revolutionary War" +video game brings up no relevent results. Hell, I can't find evidence that this game exists anywhere other than the website of the developer. Also, there may be a COI since the creater of the article wrote 2 of the 3 reviews listed on the games official website: [1] (both of which are from sources i've never heard, and the SS Free one is a teen blog).

• wtf is ur problem, everyone else is against u and someguy, how do I know ur not someguy on a diff account?--Xgmx (talk) 06:13, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

  I have no problem, you appear to have anger problems (just by looking at your talk page). I am not someguy and never even heard of him before this AFD. Please read up on guidelines and policies, stop removing the AFD notice from the articles page and stop attacking other editors (not just here, but on your talk page too). TJ Spyke 06:21, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

• how about we make a wikipedia rule wheere u can't try to diss a game that you haven't played.--Xgmx (talk) 06:29, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

  Nobody is dissing the game. We are stating policies and guidelines it fails, wheras you haven't even be able to proof that the game EXISTS, yet alone why it should have an article. TJ Spyke 06:32, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

  He's gone. — Someguy0830 (T | C) 06:36, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. Maxamegalon2000 06:47, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as per this. I have a feeling that Xgmx and his/her 'fellow gamers' are deliberately trolling. J Milburn (talk) 14:07, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. non notable game. Gtstricky^{Talk or C} 14:20, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Agreed... non notable game.--Pmedema (talk) 17:04, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete: All the people who just came here to defend it needs to note that incorrect spelling will not help you in debates. This is not notable and thus, will be deleted. Find some other website to troll because it will not work here. Tavix (talk) 17:39, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete I agree with Tavix. Despite whether or not you like the game, it's still not notable per WP:N. The AFD discussion is not about whether the game is good or not. Doc Strange (talk) 19:20, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:COI, WP:V, WP:RS, WP:OR and WP:N, - article was created by person with agenda.--WaltCip (talk) 19:30, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
