Possibly non-notable h i s ^{s p a c e} _{r e s e a r c h} 20:08, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

I think that it is notable, it is the first ever game to be produced by an all Portuguese development team, it has also articles on various well known internet websites such as IGN and Askmen. -- Ricardo-Quaresma (talk) 21:41, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

• Delete it's only claim to notability is that it is the first portuguese video game. This is uncited, but even if it were cited, it is a pretty weak claim to notability.Balloonman (talk) 08:04, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

What is so different about it? I have seen such thousands of articles without reference. Nobody tell me how much time we should give to creator to provide references. No opinion. Just want to bring to your kind notice that whole wikipedia policy on references is dubious. No support from admin at all. If I keep tagging every article without reference for deletion, I will be blocked. sharara 11:44, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

For example, take this Purity Dilution. What references it has given to claim notability? sharara 11:57, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

• Keep - According to Portuguese press (Focus magazine, November 8, 2007), the developer has received an offical approval by Microsoft to publish Ugo Volt on the Xbox. So, it is somehow relevant, as nearly 200 Xbox games are already listed on Wikipedia. Also, Portuguese press (Weekly "Sexta" November 16, 2007) and international blogs [1] have reported about Lisbon as scenery for the game. As this has all some relevance, I would opt for keeping this article in Wikipedia. --Bacalis (talk) 14:54, 18 November 2007 (UTC) — Bacalis (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Uh... how does having Lisbon as scenery for a game somehow award it more relevance? Epthorn 12:20, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

• Delete, as there are no external sources for notability and arguments here seem to be using the flawed 'but what about article X?'' argument. The question is not why a non-notable article should be deleted, the question is what could possibly establish notability for it. Basically, per nom. Epthorn 12:19, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

• Keep. First fully Portuguese videogame licensed for XBOX, with scenes set in Lisbon - I'd say that's a pretty notable case of videogame localization. If it was up to me all videogames would fail on notability, but I can't see why this one in particular should. --Paularblaster 22:13, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
