I tagged the maintenance templates on the article. Coren's bot tagged the article as a possible copyright violation. It has no references at all, and may possibly not meet the notability guideline if it relates to any subject. I'm not sure whether to keep this article or not, as a lot of the content is a source of sentences. Minima c (talk) 12:18, 6 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This appears to be a copy of a page from ActiveWiki, "a virtual encyclopedia dedicated to the Active Worlds software". It is described entirely in-universe, which may be fine for ActiveWiki but not for Wikipedia. In addition to the copyleft issues, notability is highly suspect outside the Active Worlds universe.

Delete This article seems to be original research about some fictional sci-fi plot element, or some activity of fans, related to a red-linked fictional franchise or game, but it is written in an unacceptably confusing in-universe style. It is also a copyright violation, as noted by Cnilep, unless the page at Activewiki is a copy of the Wikipedia page, or the Activewiki has licensing allowing free use consistent with Wikipedia's licensing. Even if these problems were cleaned up by an extensive re-write, the topic lacks evidence of notability. It seems to be part of a walled garden of articles (some as yet redlinks) about this fantasy universe. Edison (talk) 21:36, 6 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
