Notability

Deprodded as one RS review has been found ([1]). Ok, but we need more. My prod rationale was "Seems to fail GNG/WP:NBOOK. BEFORE shows only blog/forum reviews. No independently referenced content to merge. Please do not confuse with a more notable RPG system "Empire of the Petal Throne" from 1975 when counting your google hits :)" Anyway, we need multiple reliable reviews (so, at least two) to show this passes GNG/NBOOK and such. Ping User:Newimpartial - do you see other good reviews out there? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 01:34, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I find the reference in Designers & Dragons quite sufficient as a second source. Newimpartial (talk) 02:39, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Newimpartial: Can you quote from it to show us that it is an in-depth treatment? A passing mention is not sufficient. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 04:02, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, thank you for finding the Pyramid review; I was unable to locate it myself but in good faith I believed that Newimpartial had found it. If you feel that this one is still not notable, would you be willing to consider a merge to Guardians of Order rather than deletion, since we do have one review and there may be others? In fact, here are some possibilities, under "Linked Items"?: [2] BOZ (talk) 03:20, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@BOZ: A merger is always preferable to deletion, if there is referenced content. For now I am happy to wait a day or two and see if anyone can find a second in-depth reliable review (my interpretation of GNG/NBOOKS is that two reliable in-depth reviews suffice to make a topic notable). So far, however, I still see only one. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 04:02, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
