The result of the debate was No consensus. Woops, momentary brain cramp there. 2:1 ratio of Delete vs. Keep is still only a 67% consensus to Delete. I'm going to restore the article. --Deathphoenix 13:06, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rail Sim Pro

• Advertising. No internal wikilinks. Ad is for proposed software that does not yet exist. Article was PRODded but an anonymous IP removed the tag and made no changes to the page, so I'm listing it here. Aaron 05:13, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as spam -- Tawker 05:14, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per Tawker. Bobby1011 05:18, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
• No more an advertisment than any other software article on the wikipedia, deletion is an over reaction Sforget 06:00, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Until product exists, it should not have an article. pschemp | talk 06:25, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep I seem to recall Duke Nukem forever having its own page. Stormscape 06:50, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Perhaps this would be best merged into the trainz article. tommylommykins 07:27, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete non-notable product. Phr 08:30, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Stormscape. --Siva1979^{Talk to me} 09:37, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
• Merge then redirect to Trainz. Turnstep 13:37, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - Merging with a separate product line makes no sense. RSP is not part of the Trainz Software line Sforget 15:22, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep - http://forums.auran.com/TRS2004/forum/showthread.php?threadid=108408 - Official Statement from Auran that the product is in development Sforget 06:16, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: User's only edits are to this AfD. Deltabeignet 02:34, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
    • RE: Comment: why would I edit the actual Article? It is accurate and factual Sforget 06:16, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - Product currently announced and under development articles which wikipedia seems to be fine with see: Category:Computer and video games in production for a few hundred --Nicklinn 15:49, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - Until Auran states that they have cancelled the product we can only assume that it is still an active project. Atsfrr3000
• Delete - It was a thought two years ago and nothing more has been said by Auran since. Two years + no word = not going to happen. It's a bit of bloody false adverstising.
  • Please only vote once and sign your vote GogMadog. --69.176.63.103 03:14, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
• to comment further on the above - Auran has mentioned on more tan one occaision that they are still working on RSP Sforget 23:21, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
  • comment to comment - One need only read the Trainz users forum to witness numerous posts made by members that cast doubts that the sim will ever appear and even subjecting it to ridicule.
    • Comment to comment to comment (I'm pretty sad eh?)...What does it matter what the users are saying? Auran, the ones that will ultimately be making the game, are still saying that they are developing it. Atsfrr3000
• Delete-Duke nukem is a reel game. Consider for now RSP is spam. User:GogMagog
  • I have yet to see proof Duke nukem Forever even exsists. Stormscape 02:39, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - I have seen with my own eyes Auran at work on this project. Phil_C

• Delete as per nom. Deltabeignet 23:05, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete falls under advertising or other spam as listed. JakeBrakes
• You guys should practice what you preach. Duke Nukem Forever shouldn't be on WikiPedia according to you guys either. In fact, no sfotware should be here, cause it's 'advertising'.
• Delete, due to equal parts crystal ballism and spamification. Duke Nukem Forever is an entirely different animal, since its status as iconic vaporware has produced an independently notable amount of media coverage (such as this). -Colin Kimbrell 04:47, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • That may be true however that doesn't explain all nor even most of the games listed here: Category:Computer and video games in production. Plenty of which have far less information then the page in question. Grabbing a few at random: Cry On, Dead or Alive: Code Chronos, and along the sames lines... Rail Simulator --69.176.63.103 03:08, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. 159.134.245.26 00:42, 27 February 2006 (UTC) Unregistered users can't vote
