Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/GamerGate
This is a |recent hashtag campaign that has gotten some news coverage. |Wikipedia is not a newspaper.  is a better guide here than  because it's specifically about events, and that guideline makes clear that you need to do better than find a smattering of recent news articles to show an event is notable. It's |too early to say whether this will have any |lasting effect or will be the subject of |further analysis after the commotion has died down. At the moment the coverage is driven mostly by  over reports of harassment and conspiracy. It is a bad sign that there is so little coverage out there that could possibly get us to  and  that the page has to be ''fully'' protected. As others have said above, this event merits not its own article but rather mention elsewhere in the encyclopedia: Zoe Quinn, Anita Sarkeesian, Women and video games, Sexual harassment in video gaming. If that last topic is as important as some keep !voters insist (and I agree that it is!) why aren't they making desperately needed improvements to that article instead of trying to save this one? We're here to do a good job covering notable topics, not a mediocre job covering every non-notable skirmish in the blogger wars over those topics
