Deletion of Musketeer chess

Comment: Despite all of that, I still have to lean towards delete. We have the |reliable sources policy for a reason; even if something is well-known in chess circles, that doesn't automatically confer |notability unless reliable, secondary sources can be found. Per  the subjects of Wikipedia articles must have significant coverage (i.e. direct and detailed discussion of the topic) in reliable secondary sources (i.e. secondary sources one step removed from the actual subject, and which have some level of editorial oversight). I'm having a hard time seeing that guideline being met here, even the creator himself said that there is only the one article and/or book mentioning it. Even if the notability guideline was somehow met, we can't just publish an analysis of a bunch of |primary sources: that's literally the definition of |original research. Unless additional |independent sources can be found, I unfortunately don't see how this article can be retained in its current form

Comment: to List of chess variants, where it is covered. Sourcing for chess variants has long been a challenge. Wikipedia wants high-quality reliable sources that aren't self-published, cover the subject in some depth, and are independent of the subject. That doesn't exist for this subject (or indeed most variants). Sadly that's why most of our variant articles rely so heavily on things like Pritchard's books, despite him not actually being an authority in these variants (he just managed to get a book published). Meanwhile, if someone deeply familiar with the game publishes a blog, that's self-published. There are lots of conversations that can be had to negotiate uses of these different sources for the sake of verifiability (i.e. for use in the article), but for establishing |notability we need independent secondary sources, and I just don't see that here. There are a lot of google hits, but they seem largely connected to primary research and commercial activities... &mdash
