Draft:Sledding Game

  • Comment: This draft is in the right direction, although I think for notability to be established we need more reliable, secondary sources that provide in-depth coverage.
    Most reviewers look for a minimum of three, however this depends on the quality and reliability of the sources.
    Currently two are provided, as the steam page would be considered a primary source. sksatsuma 15:47, 23 September 2025 (UTC)
