Great and well-written article about an interesting and controversial mod - I appreciate the work you put into this and it's clear you have a strong article writing style. Unfortunately I feel like this may attract
WP:GAFAIL on the basis that it is a long way from satisfying verifiability and breadth of coverage. The article does have some
WP:SIGCOV, but the sourcing is not broad. This seems to bedevil a lot of unreleased games that lack the wide coverage of review sources normally given to released games. As such, the article is barely passing notability if so.
There are seven sources:
This puts it in a place where there is very narrow room in terms of verifying and corroborating the information about the game's development, which forms most of the article. This section is largely paraphrasing the Eurogamer source, or taking Yan's word for what occurred, which is fair in most cases, but it sounds like this was an awkwardly handled and controversial project in the community. This would ordinarily not be a major issue for an article but the circumstances of the game's development seem to really be the only thing making it potentially notable.
Happy to chat if I can help further. Please remember you can always re-nominate at any time. VRXCES ( talk) 07:27, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
