I think these people need to get a life. I mean, why remove an article when its a real life active project. Surely information on the project is useful. If that is the case does that mean that Urban Terror should be a mension under ioQuake3 based games.. LOL insane! What a load of crap lol.

What I doubt, is that lots of popular Spectrum games can pass the notability system. Since some of these got distributed in digital medium (tappe) and not printed on magazines and stuff. Wikipedia is broken, but is a brokeness I may eventually be apparent to all, even the more stubborn bureocrat. Lets wait and see :-) Non true, lot of people played the Spectrum games.

If this is so, then shouldn't mere mention of its use provide notability? If it was to be deleted, the articles on wikipedia for those projects that use ioquake3 would then say "this project is powered by the ioquake3 engine, etc" without a link, and someone, wanting to know more about it, would request an article. It provides information about the base that these other projects were built on. Isn’t the whole point of a game engine to provide a foundation for a game, or other projects?
