BucketMan - Coloring your city

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Articles is written by the game developer himself; Game itself appears to be not notable. No third-party sources. Author is not willing to follow WP:COI. Hawks Discuss^{^edits} 03:27, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: The article text is promotional copy so a potential CSD G11? Anyway, no evidence of notability found. AllyD (talk) 08:12, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, maybe merge: I am willing to edit the page. All I initially wanted to do, is adding my game (yes I'am the developer, and yes, I changed my username, to not be another violation of the Wiki Terms) to the list of software that uses OpenStreetMap data (OpenStreetMap#Commercial_services). So when adding it there, I thought I need a page to link to, so I created it. I am sorry that there is no, or not enough notability on the internet jet. I just didn't had the money to pay for reviews jet. I updated the page today. If you want I remove the store links, no problem. I don't know how to bring in more third-party sources. Can be these ones? Mangotron, theandroidgalaxy? Best, FelixButz (talk) 11:58, 3 February 2016 (UTC) (Note that FelixButz is not a username change, it's a sock account (albeit an inadvertent one, I'm sure), and is now also blocked with a direction to seek unblock/rename on the original account.

Those are all sources written or copied by you. Let me say it bluntly: You are not allowed to create an article about your own game. When you have third sources, we will reconsider. But as it stands now, this article has no place here. Third sources constitute something written by a reputable source, by an unbiased author who is in no way or form connected to you. --Hawks Discuss^{^edits} 14:58, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Just to add for authors sake, WP:COI doesn't preclude creating content about something one is associated with. It is however highly inadvisable for many good reasons. Certainly using self-written sourcing is a big no-no. A good rule is to simply not write anything, and if the topic is notable, someone is bound to make an article. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 15:35, 5 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, at least for now. The game is relatively new so it's not surprising to find a complete lack of significant third-party coverage. If that changes, we can always revisit the issue. Pichpich (talk) 15:36, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, not notable and currently reads like one big ad. --Soetermans. T / C 21:48, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete No assertions of notability, blatantly promotional. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 04:12, 4 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as WP:PROMO -- there is no worthwhile content beside basic facts. If the game gets significant coverage, we can rewrite properly. For now, fails WP:GNG with no reliable independent in-depth sources, such as WP:VG/RS. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 15:30, 5 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
