Project Mimesis

Article topic lacks significant coverage from reliable, independent sources. (?) There are no worthwhile redirect targets. czar 11:49, 6 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Since its creation in 2006 (!), the article has stayed unsourced. This seems to be because it simply hasn't been covered in any independent, reliable sources. This was all I could find, and that is neither significant coverage nor a reliable source. Kolbasz (talk) 15:06, 6 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - a few trivial mentions of the topic in books, but I could find no significant coverage. Yvarta (talk) 15:40, 6 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Google finds no sources which are simultaneously reliable, independent, and in-depth. Google Books finds nothing with "project mimesis" along with "xbox" or any of the creators' handles. Google Scholar finds this paper, which is discussing a defunct project about storytelling in video games, called Mimesis, run by some people at the North Carolina University Dept. of Computer Science. That project had a bunch of papers written about it and so has a decent chance of passing GNG, but if it's the same as the one described in the article (I think it isn't), the article does such a bad job of describing it that WP:TNT applies.

That NCSU project is a completely different thing. Kolbasz (talk) 12:22, 7 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete -- nothing suggests notability. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:36, 7 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
