StepMania
Not a notable bit of software. Given a {{prod}} tag, removed, given a {{More sources}} tag, removed, given a {{notability}} tag, nothing happens. Response to talk page request for sources was "o right ahead. Nominate it for deletion." Nothing to indicate that this meets the proposed inclusion guidleine for software by having "multiple non-trivial published works, which is also the hurdle for the accepted guidline on Notability linked before. Google News has one hit which is a trivial mention: One word in a list of other similare games, Google search has circa 5K hits, none of which appear to be non-trivial coverage from a reliable source. Delete unless citations provided to demostrate that this meets the existing (and proposed) inclusion guidelines. brenneman 06:31, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Notwithstanding the long-winded nomination (most of which is irrelevant and relates to tags), there is press coverage for this. . The software was featured in an exhibition at New York's museum of the Moving Image in 2005 , . It was discussed by the Museum curator and director in a TV interview in NY . This definitely merits inclusion. --JJay 14:25, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. I suppose after the recent spate of music-game-related AfDs (for example Flash Flash Revolution, pydance, Text Text Revolution, Dance With Intensity), this nomination was inevitable. Sorry, but StepMania is actually notable - not only has it provided the engine behind two rather successful arcade games that I know of (In The Groove 1 and 2), but the main version has been covered pretty often in media, as JJay pointed out. — flamingspinach | (talk) 17:39, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. First and foremost, the Stepmania Engine was used in ITG 1 and 2, which were notable games. 69.239.146.153 19:18, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Here's a source that In The Groove (a commercial success until Konami sued) is based on Stepmania. JJay's sources are probably enough for a decent stub. The current article needs pruning. --SPUI (T - C) 20:51, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
