[edit] Mourning Online

Mourning Online (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Fairly unclear situation here, so I'm removing the prod (which removed a speedy tag) and taking it to AFD. This article has been around in one form or another since August 2005. Back in March it looked more like this, with some judicious trimming as the websites have gone down, etc. I'm not entirely comfortable with deleting something that was once making news just because the ephemeral web-links are disappearing, so I abstain. -- nae'blis 15:25, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

• Abstain - I replaced the speedy with the prod, but I suspect that the original speedy tag was placed ina WP:POINT tantrum, so I abstain. DarkSaber2k 15:39, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete - dubious sourcing, probable WP:CRYSTAL violation, about a technology that little is known about and may not either work or exist. Yeah, not so much. Otto4711 18:15, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

• Delete - Most links lead back to pure speculation and heresay with no factual evidence backing up anything. For example - the link leading to a supposed "legal threat" is nothing more than a link back to a satire or joke website with some "supposed" email text correspondence. Not to mention the fact that the posting of email correspondence on a public forum can be considered a violation of privacy laws and can be grounds for legal action. This page looks like nothing more than an attempt at defaming something or someone.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sosoman78 (talk • contribs) circa 13:31-13:35, May 22, 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Ignoring the amusing legal spat with Something Awful, all signs point to this project being vaporware - nothing's been heard from them since 2005 or so, and the company web site is down - and as the game wasn't particularly notable before then, there's nothing left to write about.

• Delete not notable, lacking in proper sources, appears to be close to vaporware. Gwernol 13:23, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
