Hm, Threshold is pulled, but there's games not even released... with entries?

It's full of 'publicity' type wording 'a huge dynamic world' - whose huge are we talking about?
'The Alfar are the cruel, hate-spawned cousins of the Mirdain'... etc, it's a giant advertisement for an online game that hasn't even been released yet.

I like also how 'scrib' pages are considered a valid source... Um, I can post my own scrib pages as sources if I wish...

They do have lots of references from other sources, I'll give it that, just surprising that they're already considered 'noteworthy' vs a game that was/is around for ages.
