[edit] Laxius Power

Delete. Once voted to be deleted [1], have no idea why it's still here. Small, minor game with less than 30,000 hits on Google. A highly unnotable flash game like "Shotgun Orc" generates more than 30,000. Also, extremely poorly written and biased. Mackan 09:09, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

• Weak keep. Not an expert on the subject but >30,000 ghits and article claims 500,000 downloads? Can't see what is "extremely poor written" in the article either, rather the opposite. Weregerbil 13:45, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
  • A lot of those google hits seem to be SEO spam - see, for example, the listings at [2]. —Cryptic (talk) 15:06, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
    • Weak delete. Wow that's spammy, so that takes care of the ghits. Still weak opinion due to my non-expertise. Weregerbil 15:26, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. RPG Maker is just barely notable; its scenarios and users aren't. —Cryptic (talk) 14:39, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per Cryptic. - Rynne 18:17, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
• Merge with RPG Maker. Eivind 22:19, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
• Comment. There is already a section on Laxius Power in RPG Maker. A big one, at that.Mackan 13:20, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

• Merge with RPG Maker. Extremely well-known among online gamers and dabblers, deserving more than the single sentence which exists on RPG Maker page. That the deletion of a well-known project such as this can be unanimous, when there are half-a-million pokemon articles, strikes me as absurd. WBSparks 6:20pm, 10/03/05 (MST)

There are infact two sentences in the RPG Maker article about this series. If you think it deserves more feel free to add to that section. How do you define 'online gamers' as I certainly have not heard of it—then again I tend to avoid RPG Maker games and their ilk. I'm sure millions of people know what Pokèmon is and could name quite a few of them. Even then, I do not think a lot of the Pokèmon articles should exist either (and there certainly aren't 500,000 of them as they would be roughly half of Wikipedia). I'm not even sure a million people have heard of this game, much less care about it. What evidence do you have that it is widely known? kotepho 00:39, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
