Deletion of Impact of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami on the video game industry

Comment: I suspect that there are a number of emotions involved in this overall discussion, so I'll try to stick to policy.A number of editors have stated that the coverage does not meet thresholds, specifically with the coverage outside the video game industry.  does not state that we cannot use the industry experts to discuss the industry. Even then, we have industry's journalist talking about the industry's producers. For example, http://www.mcvuk.com/news/43524/Further-delays-announced-in-Japan MCV, http://www.shacknews.com/article/67815/video-game-industry-feels-earthquakes Shacknews, and http://www.next-gen.biz/news/game-industry-hit-as-nikkei-slumps Edge.That being said, the topic has received coverage outside gaming publications: http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/03/17/nintendos-3-d-players-are-on-schedule/?scp=2&sq=video%20game%20earthquake&st=cse NY Times about the N3DS, http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2011-03-16/more-relief-efforts-for-march-11-earthquake/tsunami ANN about the relief efforts of the VG industry among others, http://techland.time.com/2011/03/14/quake-knocks-japanese-games-offline-delays-release-of-others/ TIME about the delays and server shutdowns, http://www.aolnews.com/2011/03/17/video-game-community-rallies-to-support-japan-tsunami-victims/ AOL News about the relief efforts, http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/108462-Publishers-Developers-and-Gamers-Respond-to-Japanese-Disaster The Escapist about the relief efforts, http://www.wired.com/gamelife/2011/03/street-fighter-japan-donation/ Wired about the relief efforts, http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/video-games/8383384/UK-release-of-Motorstorm-Apocalypse-delayed-in-light-of-Japan-tsunami.html The Telegraph about the Motorstorm release and industry relief efforts, and http://content.usatoday.com/communities/gamehunters/post/2011/03/land-of-video-game-giants-japan-hit-by-earthquake-tsunami-social-networks-deliver-updates-/1 USA Today about the condition of the gaming employees.In regard to the neutrality of the article, I think the comments about  are misconstruing the intent of the policy, which is mainly about presenting controversial viewpoints in a balanced manner. While I understand that the policy extends beyond that, I think this article still complies with it. The scope of the article is clearly defined and presents the relevant information without bias. The fact that other articles about the economic impact don't yet exist is no fault of the article. The information is out there, and I'm sure similar articles will be written later. G members were just the first to take the initiative. If you take a look at our G/FC|Featured and G/GC|Good article output, that may not surprise you.Regardless of all that, per Wikipedia:Neutral point of view/FAQ#Lack of neutrality as an excuse to delete, "''there is usually no need to immediately delete text than can instead be rewritten as necessary over time.''"While the main earthquake article probably doesn't mention anything about the video game industry, I assure you that it will was the article is stable. The number of third-party articles that covered the gaming industry's response is too great to ignore. I for one always leave current event articles to those more adept at dealing with such liquid articles. And I suspect that others share that view.In closing, I want to say that I think this AFD is premature. I concede that this article might have been created prematurely, but it quickly morphed into a quality article. Regardless of the number of voices hear, I hope that the closing admin sees the timing and the type of arguments here and realizes that this should be discussed at a later time
