• Comment I personally disagree this is notable enough for its own page. Even if it does marginally pass GNG, it almost totally overlaps with DreamHack Winter 2014, violating WP:OVERLAP. The controversy was about cheating in a single tournament, it makes sense to put it on the tournament page. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 06:44, 6 April 2026 (UTC)
  • Subcomment @Zxcvbnm: Then take your concerns to the article itself by proposing a merge. Roast (talk) 20:17, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
    • I was thinking that perhaps the article creator may agree to rescind this and merge the article, but given that doesn't seem to be the case, I plan to do so now. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 21:46, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
