[edit] Vox Imperium
Non-notable online game. Looks like it fails WP:V and WP:WEB as there appears to be no reliable independent coverage. Delete as such. Wickethewok 02:40, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Article creator here. I vote Keep, as this page grew out of and enhances the List of Multiplayer Browser Games. This game meets the threshold of notability established by this list, though this could be indicitive of a need for a wider cull. However, the list has survived at least one deletion attempt based on this logic, so instead I expand it. Isotoad 04:25, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Unless the List of Multiplayer Browser Games entry deserves to be deleted, I don't see any reason why this entry shouldn't stay. WP:WEB seems to have been seriously eroded by these online games. Probably should address the root of the problem. I vote Keep. --Valeyard 04:44, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Comment is mentioned here as an alliance with EVE Online, but I'm not sure if that is the same Vox Imperium. T Rex | talk 02:59, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Not the same one; that's an in-game group. No vote. --humblefool® 03:23, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Nope, as a player of EVE Online, that's a (defunct, as far as I know... my alliance fought their last remnants half a year ago) in-game alliance. Never heard of the game mentioned in the article: I'll vote delete as it appears to fail WP:WEB. — Dark Shikari talk/contribs 03:52, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Comment. I would have voted keep if I thought it was notable, but it has such a low Alexa rank that it doesn't even come up on traffic rankings. There are easily ten thousand browser games out there that should get articles before one can be justified for Vox Imperium. — Dark Shikari talk/contribs 05:40, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Comment. Your comment has merit, but the notibility of this particular browser game is not contained simply in its Alexa rank. The tens of thousands of games you mention are largely uninspried clones of Gangwars. What caught my eye about Vox is its graphics -- it is one of the few games that is attempting to do something other than text. Look at the screenshot attached to the article. Much of Vox's notibility comes from its use of new web technologies. If this was just a Kings of Chaos script, I never would have made the page. Isotoad 07:16, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, no indication of meeting WP:WEB, no third-party sources. It's hard for anything on the web created in "late August 2006" to be notable by now. Sandstein 06:14, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete - faile WP:V, and no notability established. -- Whpq 19:19, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

- Delete - Wow, never heard of this game idea before. Why delete this article? Because the game sounds like about 10,000 other non-notable free broswer based strategy games going round the web, many of which try (or have their fans try) to get articles on wiki to drum up extra players.

- Delete. What Kinslayer said. —Wrathchild (talk) 16:37, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
