Comment: May still be WP:TOOSOON given that it recently launched in the US. Lacks significant coverage as is. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 15:25, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: This appears to be a notable topic. I have added three new refs demonstrating notability. ~Kvng (talk) 19:23, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: Requires significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources to show notability KylieTastic (talk) 12:22, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment: Sufficient sources not shown to satisfy WP:GNG and the article contains too much plotcruft, most of which should be removed. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 10:47, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
- Comment: Harry Potter: Magic Awakened is currently a redirect to Jam City (company). However, this draft indicates that the developers are Netease and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, who do not appear to be affiliated with Jam City. Please either explain what the affiliation is, or state that there is no affiliation. I see Jam City has released some Harry Potter games, but it does not appear to be this one. Should the redirect be deleted? Robert McClenon (talk) 03:02, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
