Still an orphan?
[edit]This article now seems to be linked to everything relevant. Should the oprhan tag be dropped? 75.252.27.158 (talk) 02:44, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
- It's not a lack of Wiklinks. It's an orphan because the only article that links to MINIs on the Dragon is Deals Gap, North Carolina. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 03:11, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

I could not find any reliable sources for recent iterations of this event, although given by the number of "events" pages and calendars from hobbyist groups, the event is still extant. RexSueciae (talk) 19:17, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
