Seven Day Roguelike entry up for deletion in Wikipedia

<< < (8/8)

DisaffectedBeta:
An interesting article from wired:

Regarding a search engine that helps find out WHO made anonymous changes to articles, and the search engine it's talking about:

Ok, talked to a wiki admin (luckily one of the english version ones :) ) and he said he cant understand that it was deleted - but it was and the discussion wont end without proof of need/usability. An easy and reliable way to proof the usability of an article is when you can give references like news articles in news papers/magazines and the like.
I tried to search for them and only found those:

Some news on "roguelikes", not specific 7DRL: http://www.armchairarcade.com/neo/node/1185
The 7DRL article on roguebasin: http://roguebasin.roguelikedevelopment.org/index.php?title=7DRL
The contest on the google newsgroup: http://angband.oook.cz/rgrd.php?q=7drl&w=1&o=0
Another 7DRL unspecific site: http://www.roguetemple.com/

Sure the 7DRL games from chaosforge should be a good reference too. Maybe someone has news articles in other languages? I saw a picture from a polish computer magazine somehwere here in the forum ("screenshot"), maybe this can be used too.

So 7DRL can be put back into wikipedia, but i will need you help ;) Give some links to aritcles about 7DRL (hope you can find some).
The pokemon problem is just because there are much more ppl knowing this stuff than ppl knowing RLs and the 7DRL contest. Thats why pokemon stays while 7DRL got deleted. Also pokemons have a lot of resources in the net.
