[edit] Rareware-stub

This article has been tagged as a stub, but it seems fairly complete to me. What is it missing in order to make it a non-stub article? --Oscarthecat 21:19, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

I saw it was already tagged as a stub, so I decided to add the new Rareware stub I made. SNS 21:24, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

How about a chapter about impact? --Frodet 17:36, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Port

Why some people dislike information about Atari XL/XE port and delete it...? Its directly port rewritten from ZX Spectrum version with some enhanced graphics... It is not official Atari ST version!!! Atari ST is a 16-bit machines, Atari XL/XE is 8-bit machines and on 8-bit Atari it isn't earlier version of this game!!!--Sikor soft (talk) 09:36, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

I have googled a bit and found no reference to the notability of this port. --Frodet (talk) 16:29, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

So, you dont search good. You can find info in many places, like: www.atari.online.pl, RGCD#4 magazine and few more.--Sikor soft (talk) 07:40, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

This is the english Wikipedia - you have not supplied any english references. And please try not to disrupt relevant edits. --Frodet (talk) 09:06, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

1st: wikipedia is free encyclopedy, so - if you can find any english references don't knowing, that it is no egzist. 2nd: Google your friend, but maybe it is to hard for You. So, I put especially for You google link: http://www.google.pl/search?hl=pl&q=jetboy+atari&btnG=Szukaj+w+Google&lr= - here is few english page too. For example: www.atariage.com, rgcd#4 magazine, atari 8 bit forever. But sorry - you can find nothing with simple google search - is too hard for You...--Sikor soft (talk) 19:02, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

An advice: It doesn't help being patronizing. It's not an issue wheterher something exists or not - Wikipedia is not an encyclopedia of all and everything, see WP:NOTE. None of the Google links establish notability in my view. It might very well be notable, but you have yet to produce a single reference which establish notability - this is YOUR responisbility as contributor. --Frodet (talk) 19:26, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
I'm sorry but a) Its an unlicensed port of a commercially released game. This is a blatant violation of article guidelines here. b) Its just not notable enough to carry its own article. There are clear guidelines for that as well at WP:N as well. --Marty Goldberg (talk) 20:11, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
