Deletion of Depression Quest

Comment: with a few comments. I would say that Brianna Wu is closest to a BLP1E case, as she had no coverage prior to GG and essentially all of her initial coverage was related to that. But my guess is there's enough coverage of other things she's said and done in the interim that her article would pass  on its own now. I could possibly see ''Depression Quest'' getting merged to Zoe Quinn, but she herself has gotten plenty of coverage, a good amount before GamerGate ever happened, specifically for that game, as well as some controversy around a game jam event that happened in early 2014. And if that were the case, a merge discussion could take place outside of AFD. In fact, I'd say starting with potential merge discussions would have been more fruitful and perceived as less of an attack

Comment: ec}}  Wikipedia has pages for minor porn stars, kiddie cartoon episodes, and obscure video games; Depression Quest isn't close to being the least well known game. Unlike, say, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:My_Little_Pony My Little Pony, (good grief!) ''Depression Quest'' received a good deal of coverage because it used a new medium to explore a social problem not often associated with games.  Quinn has been the subject of major profiles -- see the big feature in Boston Magazine for one example. Wu has been widely interviewed and clearly passes GNG both as an advocate for women in computing and as a video game designer-entrepreneur.    is in any case irrelevant because there is no event: "Gamergate" is the protracted conspiracy of misogynist harassment intended to drive women out of the computing industry by making these targets a stark example of the consequences to be faced by any woman who dares defy it. If editors have sought to defend Wikipedia from Gamergate’s malign designs, they deserve thanks. The massive and continuing influx of brigaded editors, zombie editors, sleepers and sock puppets who all seek to exploit Wikipedia to harass  Gamergate’s victims and to improve Gamergate’s reputation is less praiseworthy. To say that Gamergate has not been sufficiently covered by sources outside Wikipedia could indeed suggest misogyny or callousness, and I'm glad the nominator cleared that up

Comment: the bundling of these separate articles is ridiculous, for a start. Depression Quest strikes me as the least notable article, but even that has 18 reliable secondary sources. Fredrick Brennan is definitely notable for creating 8chan; Brianna Wu also seems very notable, with some references dating from before Gamergate even began. Zoe Quinn also has enough coverage from Gamergate-related articles alone to merit coverage;  says "If the event is highly significant, and the individual's role within it is a large one, a separate article is generally appropriate." It's also worth noting that the reason for the article's creations is completely and utterly irrelevant; what matters is notability. If an attack page on a notable subject was created, we wouldn't count that against the article if it later developed into a well-rounded page. |Susceptibility to vandalism is also irrelevant. I recommend a |snow close; there's no need to have intrusive AfD notices on the top of several widely viewed pages. However, I'm sure the nomination was made in |good faith and there's no evidence of |pointed behaviour here

Comment: I would agree that this article created in WP because of gamergate. I propose merging it with Zoe Quinn article(or rather extending the depression quest section in that article) In any case we should not consider keeping it just because || Other stuff exists I would not agree with deleting the biographies but this game looks like a prime candidate for deletion

Comment: It easily meets the , and there's enough content present (or out there) to warrant its own article. Seriously, terrible nomination. Stop wasting people's time

Comment: While I am sympathetic in some ways to the goal of these multiple proposals (which I'll answer here to avoid redundancy), I don't like the fact that this strikes me as using Wikipedia policies and guidelines as a proxy an attempt to control Wikipedia 'culture' (with all the positives and negatives the term carries).  BLP1E strikes me as inapplicable -- it does not demand that the event in question be "highly significant," merely "significant."  'Gamergate', as such, demanded coverage from many major sources, including the largest newspapers, websites, and television networks.  This is the outside world notability we look for.  Surely it meets the measure of 'sinificant,' even if I might agree it is not highly significant.  Each of the individuals here had a significant role (as measured by the RS), and thus the third prong of  is not met to my mind.  The fact that the gamergate area has become the subject of such vituperation is definitely not a good thing.  Perhaps there's an argument that for the good of the encyclopedia, these articles should be deleted.  But if that is the case, let's have that debate.  Don't cloak a providential suggestion about improving Wikipedia culture in a content guideline.  You say the articles are subject to far more attention than is demanded by the coverage.  I don't find policing others' Wikipedia interests particularly helpful.  We all know editors who spend far more time on minor articles than is "warranted."  I, for one, salute them.  Imagine, if you will, a dystopian future wherein 99% of edits on Wikipedia are to Pigasus (politics).  This would not in and of itself support the idea that Pigasus is not notable.  I would urge the nominator to disentangle the two strands of thought, because I find the content argument very weak
