Stevie Nicks is a singer in the band Fleetwood Mac and I'm pretty sure no matter how long this site's around we'll never find a game she's been credited in.

I have a feeling that he/she may not be a singer in this case. Seeing as there are no editors to the page, it would be my guess that it's one of the original pages added to the site in the hopes that a user would add content. In other words, this Stevie Nicks is probably a gamer dude/dudette.

I don't think that she deserves her own page. She never had any solo stuff come to games.

According to Moby Games someone by the name of Stevie Nicks was credited in an old DOS game called Search for the Titanic. She was credited in the "Xtra‑freeking yaahooz to" section. That warrants a page.

So you're telling me that Fleetwood Mac singer, Stevie Nicks, was into game development?

I don't know about that, but she was credited in the Windows versions of GTA IV for Edge of Seventeen.

Contributing to a licensed soundtrack does not pass the relevancy test.

As is Suzanne Vega, another musician that has not contributed to a game.


I think this pretty much settles it.

Considering he died before the invention of video games, I doubt that's very accurate.

Probably just giving props to...inspiration, I guess. Though I'm getting rather skeptical now.

I'm looking through everything, and I can't get a lick of information on the game she's in except for what's on that Moby page and some release dates on GameFAQs. Can't find any copies on either Amazon or eBay, either. No pictures.

EDIT: Nix what I just said for I kept spelling it wrong. Doy.

Apparently, Nikola Tesla already has a page on Giant Bomb for Fallout 3 and Dark Void (I believe).

I don't think there's anything in the rule books against people citing people that had no direct connection to the creators, much less the game, in game credits as inspiration for a game. That's what I'm guessing happened here.

That sounds like grounds for deletion to me!  I think it's time we told this page "you can go your own way."  As in somewhere far away from Giant Bomb.

If they were in the special thanks they get a page. At least, that's what was said for I think it was Jeff or something and why he has a page.

Special thanks is sufficient credit to warrant a person page. That's why Jeff has a page.
The next issue here would be to determine whether the credited individual is Fleetwood Mac's Stevie Nicks or someone else with the same name. But seeing as she's credited alongside Nikola Tesla, I'm thinking it probably is her.

If a person is credited by name in a game's credits, that person gets a person page. It is an easy rule that eliminates all discussion about whether someone "deserves" a page or not.


The "by name in a game's credits" part is important, because it means that most sports figures don't get Person pages, only Character pages.

How can the words "Delete Stevie Nicks" even come out of your mouth.
