Deletion of Cool Herders

Comment: The sources given above establish that the game exists, but don't have any actual reviews or significant coverage.  Just being mentioned or listed on a site doesn't come close to satisfying . Also, this game was never ported to the DS despite expectations that it would happen over a year ago

Comment: Although I think the articles listed above help it to meet |verifiability criteria, it falls just short of |notability, even with the joystiq source.  It may be there if more reputable sources can be found, however it appears as though that is not going to happen.  If the DS version comes out, this will likely become notable and the article can be rewritten then

Comment: I think that I demonstrated in my first response that according to another portion of the Wiki guidelines (which can be interpreted in different ways, of course) that the  article provides a basis for keeping it.  Having said that, using your interpretation, I searched for Cool Herders on all three of the sites that you provided, and it came up on all three of them.  GameSpot only had the DS news, but the others had news on both the Dreamcast and DS versions.  Also, I think that is is worth noting that as I tried to state in my first comment, according to Notability, "The topic of an article should be notable, or "worthy of notice." Notability is distinct from "fame," "importance," or "popularity..."  I interpreted this as meaning that they don't have to necessarily be on those sites to still be notable, but what they did has to be notable for some reason.  This game would also be noticeable specifically because it was an unlicensed game that was picked up for publishing on a viable system, even if it has not yet appeared on that system.  I have not found one other case that an unlicensed game was noticed due to an independent release on a console system, therefore making this particular release perhaps the most notable of all of the List_of_commercially_released_independently_developed_Dreamcast_games
