Gunship III - Flight Simulator

[edit]

Hey, I thought I'd explain why I deleted the page. The long and short of it was that it didn't really show how the game was notable. I didn't think it was really all that promotional in tone, so that wasn't really the big problem. It's just that the page didn't have any coverage in places that were independent of the game itself and would be considered reliable per WP:RS. I tried searching to see if there was any coverage, but I couldn't really find anything out there. I saw places to download the game, forums, and reviews in places we can't use as a RS (blogs, download sites, etc), but nothing that we could really say was a reliable source to show notability. I could have pushed it through AfD, but I can say that offhand I really don't think it would have survived deletion. It can get really frustrating at times to find sourcing for videogames unless they're released through an overwhelmingly notable company, as the gaming industry tends to ignore the smaller or indie games unless they become an indie darling sort of release, but we still have to have the coverage.
