[edit] Donkey Kong Wii (Tentativie Title)

Donkey Kong Wii (Tentativie Title) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Contested prod. Crystal ball page with no assertion of notability, no references and completely speculative information. Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 20:27, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

• Strong delete. The AfD tag was removed from this page without comment; I have restored it. Plenty of unsourced speculation with a dash of original research garnished with a lack of verifiability makes for a very unsavoury dish. Once the game is out and material is verifiably known, then we should have a page for it. OlenWhitaker • ^{talk to me} or _don't • ♣ ♥ ♠ ♦ 20:39, 13 March 2008 (UTC) 20:39, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete No Donkey Kong game has been announced for the Wii (other than the already released Donkey Kong Barrel Blast). No sources. TJ Spyke 20:45, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete as unsourced crystalballling. Also, will someone check into users Smarty Kong (talk · contribs) and Dummy Kong (talk · contribs), one of whom seems to be a sock of the other? Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 20:53, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

I got the same impression about the two usernames. I didn't want to be the first to say the word sockpuppet because I was still trying to AGF despite strong evidence to the contrary. Now that it's out, though, I too call shenanigans (I'll get my broom.) OlenWhitaker • ^{talk to me} or _don't • ♣ ♥ ♠ ♦ 21:04, 13 March 2008 (UTC) 21:04, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

• Delete all of the info I can find for this title relate to the vitual console rerelease of the classic game and one mention at Inside Games [1] that speculates Nintendo will be producing a title.--Torchwood Who? (talk) 21:08, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete. I prodded. Jobjörn (talk) 22:20, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

The probelem with Mario Wiki is that it is page that anyone can edit so it would not count as a reliabe source. There are also no references meaning that noting on the page can be verified. Anyone with an account on that wiki could have made that page. --76.71.209.55 (talk) 22:37, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

• Redirect to Donkey Kong Barrel Blast. The only references I could dig up on a Donkey Kong game for Wii were this one stating that a Gamecube Game titled Donkey Kong Bongo Blast had been pulled from the Gamecube to appear on the Wii instead, and this one on UGO, containing a lot of speculation but which could be pointing to the same title.
