Non-notable online RPG (MUD). No Alexa rank. Delete. - Mike Rosoft 12:22, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete fails WP:WEB. No independent coverage. Only sources are it's own sites. DarkAudit 14:31, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as not indicating notability; the external links consist of two official sites, a player group and a directory. And here's a hint for article authors: if you want to make a topic sound notable or even interesting, don't begin with "MyTopic is one of the many..." EALacey 17:45, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Advice:Could someone advise me on why it is non-notable and probably guide me a bit? I'm new here. Some additional information: Daedal Macabre is a top 20 mud on the Top Mud Sites list. So a little help before dissing this article away would help.Kazurincwl 08:38, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • See WP:WEB for notability guidelines. An Alexa rank can be used as a rough estimate of notability, so can the Google results. As for it being in a top 20 list - where can the list be found? What are the criteria for inclusion? - Mike Rosoft 14:24, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Ok. How about now? Not really sure how to use Google results as an indicator. Could I have another advice? Thanks.Kazurincwl 16:22, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Looking at the links added to the article, the coverage seems rather trivial; this is the only one that remotely might indicate notability, and I am being generous. - Mike Rosoft 12:34, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • I was looking at the other mud wikis for some guidelines, but I do not know how they managed notability. In any case, at the moment, I'm applying for an Alexa rank, will that help notability? Appreciated: Kazurincwl 12:49, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Relisting to gather more votes/comments. - Mike Rosoft 09:56, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• comment The guy's new, and at least trying to rework: if you must relist within 24 hours, rather than taking it to the talk page, then at least have the common decency to answer his question about exactly what your criteria for notability are: if appearing as item 20 in the topmudsites.com's list is insufficient, then state why there are more than 20 links to muds on wikipedia, and what they do that this one doesn't.DewiMorgan 18:48, 18 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
