Mario Forever

Non-notable fan game. Delete. A Link to the Past (talk) 21:07, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

• As much as I HATE articles about fan-made games (although I do like some of said games), and while I would certainly AfD the majority of games in the "fanmade computer game remakes and sequels" category, I have to vote weak keep. Although it could use a little copy editing, the article contains NPOV info and has an external link to a review from Acid-Play, which is a huge site in the realm of freeware games (and has an Alexa rank of 28,847). Googling "mario forever"+"buziol games" brings up a considerable number of both total hits (11,100) and unique hits (338). The game definitely a tenuous claim to notability, but for me, it's enough. -- Kicking222 22:12, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I HATE articles about fan-made games. ;) Danny Lilithborne 22:12, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Per Kicking222, seems notable enough. Just because it's indepentant, doesn't mean there shouldn't be an article about it. - Tomodachigai
• Keep It's an important game to Mario fans who own PC's, so I say keep it. TheDingbat 00:27, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep In my opinion, this article fits to Wikipedia standards. It is informative, neutral and has no problems with deletion policy. Personally for me it was useful. And yeah, I suppose "I HATE articles about fan-made games" is not the best argument, don't you think so? 194.85.80.92 17:39, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Neither is being informative. Being informative and neutral does not counter the fact that it's not a very notable subject. - A Link to the Past (talk) 22:48, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Additionally, I've noticed that many of the voters here do not have very many edits on Wikipedia. - A Link to the Past (talk) 22:48, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
