There are 3 people who have edited the topic.
The creator was "Danstein" who, judgeing by the timeing of the edits is "Seth"
I was one of the editors when I put the deletion proposal.
I don't know the other editor (IP: 68.174.7.86)

*edit* Seth: see my edit in the last post
From Wiki:
Quote:
Original research is a term used in Wikipedia to refer to material that has not been published by a reliable source. It includes unpublished facts, arguments, concepts, statements, or theories, or any unpublished analysis or synthesis of published material that appears to advance a position — or which, in the words of Wikipedia's co-founder Jimmy Wales, would amount to a "novel narrative or historical interpretation."
Wikipedia is not the place for original research. Citing sources and avoiding original research are inextricably linked: the only way to demonstrate that you are not doing original research is to cite reliable sources that provide information directly related to the topic of the article, and to adhere to what those sources say.
Wikipedia:No original research (NOR) is one of three content policies. The others are Wikipedia:Neutral point of view (NPOV) and Wikipedia:Verifiability (V). Jointly, these policies determine the type and quality of material that is acceptable in the main namespace. Since the policies complement each other, they should not be interpreted in isolation from one another, and editors should try to familiarize themselves with all three. The principles upon which these policies are based are non-negotiable on the English Wikipedia and cannot be superseded by other policies or guidelines, nor by editors' consensus.
I consider www.subsim.com as a reliable source. What in the article isnt a well known fact? That the computer game companies are trying to make better games than the rest of the companies? And arent the playes who modify these games dedicated? If you read the article carefully, you will see that there are not one of the sentences, nor even the letters or paragraphs, who is stating that this is my personal point of view. And im neutral as a swedish merchant in 1941..If you want, i can fill the article up with references and link to reliable sources, but i believe my subsim & gw team links are enough (for now..)
@ducimus: No hard (or hurt..) feelings, mate!

BTW: Its good to have a discussion without name-calling and such bad things!
