Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Musketeer chess
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
