The result was delete, the article does not cite any sources (WP:OR, WP:V). The "keep" opinions do not address the relevant points of policy. Sandstein 20:45, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

PassMe

Un-notable, un-sourced, hardware/software used in Nintendo DS piracy. Written like an advertisement or installation guide. Spigot Map 01:03, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep article explains what PassMe does. M1N 20:00, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for sure..it is not only for piracy, and homebrews are an important part of gaming. articles have to start somewhere, just because the first version doesnt have 100000 words, doesnt mean that it wont be great someday.Sennen goroshi 22:20, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The device has no notability, much less enough information to warrant an article after stripping it of unverifiable/original research. Spigot Map 22:23, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

no notability? a product that is sold in huge numbers all over the world is not notable? OIC. If obscure musicians and movies get a mention on wikipedia, so should this. You don't need to verify every single detail of every article - the facts are common knowledge, and unless someone disputes them, should not need to be verified.Sennen goroshi 22:29, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Obscure/Un-notable bands get speedily deleted here. Bands need mass media coverage to be on wikipedia. Wikipedia works off verifiability, not common knowledge. Spigot Map 22:32, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

there are far more obscure/unverifiable articles in wikipedia than this one, instead of complaining about the article, or making veiled complaints about piracy, why don't you verify some of the article, and turn it into a great article? surely improving articles is better than removing them?Sennen goroshi 06:29, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not everything gets a place on Wikipedia, simple fact. And if you don't stop following me around reverting all of my edits, you will be on the Admin noticeboard. Get a life. Spigot Map 09:27, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

oh dear. I had no intention for people to get upset and emotional regarding my edits, they are edits - mere differences of opinion, nothing more. "get a life"? I don't think personal attacks are allowed in wikipedia, so I wont resort to replying with a childish insult. Following you around? well, seeing as you have been reverting an edit of mine, on an article you have never been to before, and have no connection with, it would seem that you have been following me, well feel free - have fun, I have no issues with people checking up on my edits. Please don't threaten me with the admin board, if you think I am worthy of being there, do it - otherwise there is no need to mention it. If you have any more issues regarding my edits, my wikipedia behaviour or my lack of "a life" feel free to leave your messages on my talk page, it is better to get these things out into the open, than sit there holding back. take careSennen goroshi 13:50, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
