[edit] Pokémon Platinum

Pokémon Platinum (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Since when is Beckett, an unofficial fan magazine, a reliable source? The article author doesn't even specify what issue of Beckett the "confirmation" appears in. No sources cited, no images to back it up, nothing. And besides, it's been brought up among the Pokemon community multiple times, this "new game", and every single time it's been basically debunked and confirmed as fake. Adding it to Wiki as though it were a factual announcement from Nintendo is just silly. Qu-ko (talk) 20:26, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

• Delete as either crystal-balling or a hoax. This game doesn't seem to have been covered in any reliable sources yet. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 20:33, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

• Delete as a crystal ball. This is one Pokemon article we really don't need. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 17:41, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete It is a crystal ball. Google brings up quite a few hits for it, however no major media coverage or sources. Lady Galaxy 23:07, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete Crystal ball article. Seriously, a Pokemon Platinum? No major announcements, no articles relating to it, only talks in forums about it. Not notable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 1yodsyo1 (talk • contribs) 16:29, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete Crystal ball; for reference, it WAS mentioned in the magazine, and that was subsequently mentioned on Pokebeach.com, but neither of those are reliable souces. 69.182.107.70 (talk) 23:13, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
