[edit] The Game Initiative

Advertisement for company that runs game conferences. No independent assertion of notability. All of creating user, Rocktacity's edits concern the company or the various conferences, or people that will be at the conferences. Googling Rocktacity brings up a hell of a lot of different gaming forums where a user called Rocktacity has joined just to make one or two posts about the conference. Also nominating:

• Game Writers Conference
• Casual Games Conference
• Mobile Game Conference
• Game Audio Conference
• Austin Game Conference
• LivePitch

As either being pure advertisement, or not asserting notability (or not independently), the last case being utterly non-notable as a contest that is run at one of the conferences. One not added as it was been deemed copyvio by another user. Another has already been deleted as copyvio.--Drat (Talk) 14:14, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

• Comment I'm unsure about most of these, and any articles that were kept would have to be completely rewritten, but both IGN and GameSpot did articles on the Casual Games Conference, so it's possible that (at least) this conference is notable. -- Kicking222 14:31, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
