  • Delete per nomination. No independent media coverage, ergo no notability/reliable sources. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 20:23, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Who has deemed it to be destined to be the biggest mod? I see nothing special here, it's just something a fan came up with and named it after a city near Palm Springs, CA. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 00:27, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

This mod has its own space on many popular GTA websites/forums and many people are awaiting it, and i thought it would be a good idea to post an article which will be constantly updated so it can provide information for users that will view this or want to find out about the mod. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tony Resta (talk • contribs) 10:33, 25 September 2007 (UTC) — Tony Resta (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Yes, that would be the case if i posted an article on a mod that isnt mine. But i know every fact on this mod seeing as im the director of it and i can assure you that all the information given within the article is reliable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tony Resta (talk • contribs) 10:28, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Unfortunately, information that can not be referenced in independent sources (who utilize a reasonable degree of editorial oversight) violates our policy on verifiability. This policy actually works to your advantage, even though it may seem like a pain right now. If none of the information on the mod can be sourced, then anybody could come on here and say anything about it, even things that are false or potentially defamatory. Right now, if someone wrote that it ends with a 15-minute FMV of Mussolini and Eva Longoria fighting to the death with butter knives, we wouldn't have any way of knowing whether that was true or not, since it'd just be your word against theirs. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 19:05, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
