Deletion of FreeOrion (3rd nomination)

Comment: Merge''' to Master of Orion per  — for now. The article already seems to meet the verifiability guidelines but it still doesn't appear to be notable enough to justify its separate existence. Also, "how many times does this need to be deleted?" is not a valid question. Since the project in a state of continuing development, it will presumably meet the notability guidelines at some time in the future

Comment: but hold the salt, oppose merge or redirect to MoO though, this is a separate game and should be treated as such. The Softonic source looks good, but in order to provide enough material to build a solid neutral article (per |notability), multiple reliable sources which cover the subject properly are needed. Game databases which contain links to the game and a stack of small articles on sites which can't be shown to be |reliable aren't providing what is needed. I think there is a very good chance that this game could become more widely reviewed, but not until it has some kind of solid base (IE a version which is basically complete but can be further added to). Reviewers aren't going to fall over themselves to cover something which isn't complete in the majority of cases, give it a chance when there's hope that it will be covered. There are several sites who cover misc. freeware/open source/indie etc. games who could reasonably be argued as reliable. For instance: Jay is Games, GameZebo, http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/ Rock Paper Shotgun etc. If this is deleted then I suggest waiting for it to be built into that basically complete game then notifying as many of these reviewers as possible, if reviews do get written the article can be brought back, cited and then it's fine

Comment: can you read  before you open you mouth from now on please. If you look, you'll see that Friendly notice, maybe... that is, if you're not just blinded by your irrational abhorrence you seem to have, because my message was limited in scale, neutral, nonpartisan and open (it's like I wrote that part of the article). So please, stop with all this Kabuki, it's just not necesary and plain impious

Comment: and '''|salt''' – I cannot find anything reliable that can establish notability of this game. I won't claim #G4|speedy deletion G4 as consensus seems to be against it, but my opinion is that nothing explicit has been brought forward even from the first AFD nomination. The question of the redirect should have been brought up at |deletion review or can still be (as a protected version) if there is indeed a dispute as to whether the redirect would be a plausible search term, as
