No evidence of any notability. All the references appear to be press releases and none in any robust and independent publication. Fails WP:GNG Velella ^{Velella Talk} 22:19, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep when independent reliable sources reprint news releases, the stigma is erased. Each of the references seems to be reasonable: none of them are the Los Angeles Times, but each of them appears to meet our criteria, and even if 1-2 does not, there would still remain multiple RS references to meet the GNG. Overall, not a tragedy if it's deleted, but if things were leaning that direction, I'd prefer to see it merged into a list of regional gaming conventions than deleted outright.

Keep I agree with Jclemens's logic. This is notable, but even if consensus reaches delete, still notable for a list. ThePlatypusofDoom (talk) 23:45, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I did some research and found several individuals in the table top gaming community mention Strategicon. This one in the Jewish Journal [1] is a good example. Nothing here suggests that it's not notable -- it's more likely that table top gaming is something that doesn't get news coverage. User:Jclemens Here [2] is the list of gaming conventions. Strategicon is already on the list as Gamex and Gateway. CerealKillerYum (talk) 03:37, 28 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
