Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tribal Wars (2nd nomination)
WP:N|Notability not established through in-depth coverage in |reliable sources, struggling to find anything of use in a search. Notability is doing its job, the nature of WP is that we can't formulate our own |original research, and issues such as neutrality and breadth-of-scope are part and parcel of it. WP is a tertiary source, by definition and under the restrictions we operate under MMOGs need secondary coverage before we can do much about them, as has always been the case through these recreated articles. The problem isn't solved by moving the goalposts, it's by the gaming press covering MMOGs/freeware/indie games etc. properly, which is slowly but surely happening. I fully support the game having an article when the sources exist, the same as any other game, but no video game '''needs''' a glorified game database entry which parrots the documentation if that's all it can ever be - the game's site can do that itself. If contributors interested in having an article on the game find new sources etc. then they're always welcome to reach out to the video game project or to individuals or whatever to discuss them, trying to hammer the square block through the triangular hole isn't the way to go about it
