  • Related, but different, article now included. Same rationale as the first; no independent reliable sources, and I think it fails WP:NOTE. --

  • Delete Both: Sources are given for neither, they are both "under development," and in truth, a Speedy under A7 would be appropriate for both -- no assertion of notability is made. I'd almost suggest

I'd like to make 2 points here. First off, Phoenix Game Engine is not a copy of Phoenix Engine. Though the Phoenix Engine project in it's entirety is older, the current C/C++'s page is older than my current release. This, of course, is why I chose the name. It APPEARED to not be taken. Currently, Phoenix Game Engine is not under heavy development, due to the fact I am currently under a large workload. Bottom line is, there is no copyright violations. While I don't appreciate that my project is being attacked as a copy, a fake, a fraud, etc., the proof is in these simple facts: 

- Phoenix Engine is a game engine layer for the Leadwerks Engine. 
  Phoenix Game Engine is a simplification layer, targeted for games, for the Irrlicht 3D engine.
  As of Irrlicht 1.5, most of the code for older versions, notably the one from a year ago, is highly incompatible, thus a copy would turn into completely new code anyway.
- Phoenix Engine supports C, C++, and .NET
  Phoenix Game Engine supports only C++, and possibly .NET in the future.
- As mentioned above, the current Phoenix Engine page was created after the Phoenix Game Engine.

Looking at this, it would appear that Phoenix Engine was more likely for the copyright infringement, but all the same, there was none. Both projects need to be removed from the AfD, and I need to converse with the developers of the Phoenix Engine, and we an come to terms on better naming one of our engines to make them unique.

  • The dispute, or lack of a dispute, between these two engines is not what is being discussed. Both appear not to have enough notability or reliable sources to warrant an article. If either becomes more notable, or gets mentioned in reliable sources, an article can be recreated. --
