[edit] The Ages of Ilathid

The Ages of Ilathid is an upcoming Myst fan game, being done legally with permission from Cyan Worlds. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Vanity, spam. Delete. - Mike Rosoft 01:19, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Delete: Unverifiable as it does not exist yet, and an extremely minor event that is not sufficiently notable to require an encyclopedia entry. Hie them to GameFAQs. Geogre 01:45, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Some things are notable before their release, and the 8,480 Google hits suggest that this is one of them. My guess is that they wouldn't have been able to get an okay from Cyan unless they were seriously planning to release this and had something to show for their efforts. I would certainly support deletion if this ends up being vaporware though. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 01:49, Jun 7, 2005 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to Myst. Split into its own article only when it actually exists. -Sean Curtin 03:28, Jun 7, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete As of now, there's far to little information on it. I don't think there's a need to delete it persay because of SPAM or because it "doesn't belong in an encyclopedia" or whatever pretentious things one might hting, but I think it's currently too short to even be considered a stub. - 69.215.14.212 04:10, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to Myst as per Sean Curtin. —Wahoofive (talk) 05:55, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• As is, this is an advertisment and a link to an external website. As such, I would vote delete. If it were expanded into a proper article, dealing with the background to this Myst-expansion, I would reconsider the postion. --Simon Cursitor 07:10, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete for reasons given by nominator. Dpbsmith (talk) 19:26, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Fan works have an incredible ability to be vaporware. --Carnildo 22:02, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
