CSD a7[edit]

Are you serious? Read the page. There are 8 distinct references. I even made this clear in the edit summary for the page creation. Protonk (talk) 16:03, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Check refs 2 and 3 first, they are the 'anchor refs'. Both discuss terranova in some detail. The other five (not including the about page) discuss it in much less detail or simply cite it inline (or an author, or both), but the coverage is sufficient.

Also, with 2 exceptions (Gamasutra and the TN about page), each reference is to a reliable source excercising editorial control. Protonk (talk) 16:38, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Would it help to point out that many of the authors who contribute to TN are notable themselves? In varying degrees of (demonstrated) notability, these include Edward Castronova, Richard Bartle, Greg Lastowka (whose work is cited in Virtual crime and Virtual economy), and Mia Consalvo (cited in Donkey Kong (video game), Cheating (video games), and Nintendo Entertainment System). Other "contributing authors" are also notable. Cretog8 (talk) 17:28, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe. I didn't make that claim because notability isn't generally inherited. But it is certainly true. Protonk (talk) 17:29, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
