Hello World! First of all, I apologize for the addition to the "List of Apocalyptic and Post-Apocalyptic Fiction", which had no business (pun intended) being there, because the citation in it was linked to a COMMERCIAL source (the Google Play Store), when I posted the entry about a mobile video game (Earth Force Defenders), that I thought would fit the criteria pertinent to the nature of the subject matter of the whole page itself. If you have anything further to discuss regarding this issue, I'd like to hear back from you. Thanx! ;-) Geemoe 2017 (talk) 13:49, 8 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Geemoe 2017. The commercial link was not the main reason I removed Earth Force Defenders from List of apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic fiction. List articles generally include only entries which have demonstrated notability, either by being the subject of a Wikipedia article, or by having multiple high-quality secondary sources which discuss it in depth; such sources are what is needed to start a Wikipedia article about a topic. In this case, neither the game nor the developer are the subject of a Wikipedia article, and the Google Play link, not being an independent secondary source, did little to demonstrate notability.
I see you're working on a draft, Draft:The Last Broadcast (2006 audio play), for another entry in List of apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic fiction that lacks an article. I'll refrain from removing the list entry for now, though someone else might, and I plan to bring the entire list up to standards in the future, which will include removing all "redlinked" entries. While I can't give your draft a formal review right now, I can tell you that it won't be accepted in its current state. As noted above, you'll need multiple independent reliable secondary sources to demonstrate notability (in the sense used by Wikipedia); it is not enough to simply show something exists.
I've left the standard welcome message below, which includes a few more links to pages you might find helpful. ʍw 15:40, 8 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! I just wanted to let you know that I have nominated Draft:The Last Broadcast (2006 audio play) for deletion since you blanked the draft and are the main contributor to it.
Kindest regards,
