The result was delete. The issue is whether we can write a verifiable, neutral-point-of-view article on Systemshock; these two policies are fundamental to Wikipedia. To satisfy them, we need multiple, independent reliable sources (forums, blogs, and wikis generally don't count as reliable) that discuss the subject non-trivially. This is what notability refers to. Although it is clear that Systemshock is mentioned on independent sites, these are generally short references that don't establish notability. The lack of substantial third-party information needed for verifiability means that we cannot sustain an article on Systemshock that conforms to Wikipedia's core policies. — TKD:: Talk 00:31, 25 August 2007 (UTC) reply
