Jebens, Harley (March 3, 1998). "You Know Lara, Now Meet Lyra". GameSpot. Archived from the original on October 3, 2000.

I deleted several of the old comments and most of what seemed to be issues with Oogle and previous edits. After reading the deletion thread, I think its clear that the original page lacked the Encyclopedic Nature that Wiki requires.

So from reviewing the deletion thread and communication with Koi, it appears the main issue is having reviews of the game or third party sources discussing the game's creation. Instead of personal websites. Looks like the main goals are referencing/citing the PC Gamer Mag Article; 1UP Review and Computer Gaming World as WP:VG/RS. So then the article just needs to be re-written with factual sources linking to the creation sections.

I think a starting point is to use a comparative "approved" online game from the time period and use similar styling, that should get you to a basic starting point. (for example: EverQuest or Ultima Online)

You like to delete talk pages, I guess? Why did you do that. Explain in detail. Oogles (talk) 09:25, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Potential Links to check on WP:VG/RS

I hadn't seen these mentioned in the deletion thread, so something to check: - Print Publication " Developing Online Games: An Insider's Guide, By Jessica Mulligan, Bridgette Patrovsky, Page 461 Appendix E "Online World Timeline" - 1998, 9781592730001 - Quote says "Lyra's Underlight launches doing a role-play-enforced graphical game on Mplayer" - Available for purchase here — Preceding unsigned comment added by Luinitari (talk • contribs) 21:30, 14 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Underlight is still running

Underlight is currently up and active as of 7/12/2019 and it appears to have been running for a long time. How should the page be edited to reflect this?
