Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Mana World
First, let's please stop derailing this AfD discussion. The nomination is grounded in policy and made in good faith. Attacking the nom's expediency or software expertise is neither. The amount of time that passes between creation and AfD is irrelevant ''if no |reliable sources exist'', and so far we don't have any (at least, not from the list Platyna posted above or in the article). By the deletion criteria, what we actually expect from a new article is not for it to be complete upon posting, but for its author to have written enough of a stub, either already referenced or with ready sources to be referenced, to prevent deletion nominations, like this one, for failing basic criteria. Sources that establish notability don't seem to exist for this article, and that is the actual policy question raised by the nom. AfD also lasts five days, during which sources can be found. The article is, therefore, given ample opportunity to prove notability, if the authors neglected to do so prior to creating the page. I am willing to change my vote if reliable sources are found
