Proposed deletion of Legends of Kallisti

The article Legends of Kallisti has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

unsourced, unsourceable (I've tried), no apparent hope of establishing notability

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. chaos5023 (talk) 18:19, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the notification. I don't think I'm able to help with establishing the notability of the game, as I don't really know much about it, other than that's it's one of the oldest still running Dikus around.

Jay "AxL" Herlihy, who once maintained the List of the Oldest DikuMUDs and is/was a long time staff member on Kallisti (AFAIK), could probably give some interesting comments about the notability. I don't know if he edits Wikipedia. --Mikko J. Putkonen (talk) 08:07, 15 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Don't really need commentary, need independent reliable sources talking about it. I'm pretty sure there aren't any, because I have a rather good library of MUD-related books and I can't find anything about Kallisti in it, but I'd be delighted to be wrong. —chaos5023 (talk) 12:11, 15 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yea, I know the sources are what you're primarily after. In any case, I can't really offer any at this point. =) --Mikko J. Putkonen (talk) 07:47, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
