I came to this page to improve it, but this game fails WP:SIGCOV, unfortunately. Instead of PRODing, I've brought to AfD as there are some sources that I found in my search, and I think it would benefit from a community discussion before deletion. The sources that I've found are noted below:
- GameSpot (a reliable source per WP:VG/RS has an extensive preview of the game here ([1]).
- The press release about the creation of the game is covered in a number of blog posts from reliable sources. ([2], [3], [4])
There is no coverage in any sources I searched for in Newspapers.com or Newsbank, and absolutely no coverage of the released game. This Wii music game just doesn't meet our mark. Nomader (talk) 03:55, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Music, and Video games. Nomader (talk) 03:55, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- Nomination withdrawn. Per source finds from Zxcvbnm, Timur9008 and Mika1h, this nomination was pre-mature and the sources easily pass WP:GNG. Nomader (talk) 19:06, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
Weakkeep As you are likely aware, foreign-language sources are admissible in the Wikipedias of other languages, and I found this review in GameZone which covers the "multiple sources with significant coverage" criterion. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 05:42, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- I also found a preview in Gamer.nl, so I am changing it to a normal "Keep" !vote. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 05:45, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- One note to your foreign language comments -- they're not only admissible in the Wikipedias of other languages, but they're also obviously admissible here, and I'm a bit embarrassed that I missed the mark following the steps of WP:BEFORE on this nomination in my sources search. On the sources themselves, if I were an uninvolved editor coming around and a WP:THREE argument was a GameSpot preview, a GameZone review, and a Gamer.nl preview, I'd be inclined to say Weak Keep and I'm strongly considering withdrawing the nomination right now. I'm going to sleep on it before I do. Nomader (talk) 05:33, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Nomader: See also the Eurogamer and other source found below, I think this is a clear withdraw as there is not a snowball's chance in Hell it will be deleted at this point. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 18:55, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

- Comment probably a potential source [5]. I've checked the game developer's website and publisher's webiste for reviews but there is nothing there. Timur9008 (talk) 15:40, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- I’m not sure if this should be kept but I believe there is a viable place to redirect this to if there is a a consensus against having an article. That target would be Armin van Buuren#2007–2009: Imagine since the game is mentioned in thr final paragraph of that section.--65.93.193.94 (talk) 20:50, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
