This whole article is written like an advertisement. "All the tools you'll ever need"? seriously? this article should be deleted. 214.13.82.22 (talk) 02:27, 4 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Why does the link for an open source alternative keep getting removed on this? Wikipedia is meant for information - NOT as a commercial advertisement site, and as such there shouldn't be a problem providing alternatives to software!

The correct place for such a link would be under "See Also", not in the body of the text. See other entries such as Marmite. Such links should also list NBOS Fractal Mapper and other commercial products.

How come this page is listed as a "Video game software stub"? CC is primarily (Exclusively?) for tabletop RPG's. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Baeron (talkcontribs) 08:16, 3 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

I noticed some questions about notability in the Afd for a related article: Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Dungeon_Designer_3 so I'll share the results of some minimal searching. I've added a review from AllGame.com; I suspect there are additional reliable sources discussing this software, based on the apparent interest in it.

I've noticed a [http://www.dmoz.org/Games/Roleplaying/World_Building/Map_Making/Tools/Campaign_Cartographer/

DMoZ category for this software]. There's also a mailing list for discussing CC2 macros: [1]. 

Please add additional reviews or so forth from reliable sources, if you can. Jodi.a.schneider (talk) 01:19, 8 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Quite a few parts of this entry read like pure advertising, to the point it gets comical. 93.218.139.97 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 05:35, 20 January 2011 (UTC).Reply

I agree to this ! Alrik Fassbauer (talk) 15:59, 24 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

I attempted to address the issue. Regards, RJH (talk) 21:14, 24 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

This article's sole source is a web page hosted by Bright Hub, which just recapitulates the descriptions the publisher hosts on their site. In a google search, nearly every single hit contains content written by the publisher. Serious notability concerns here. If nobody replies to this, in a month or so I'll try to compile a list of map-making gaming software, include Campaign Cartographer in the list, and delete this article.

I added some sources. This is likely to be the most notable software of it's particular type (fantasy map making). Regards, RJH (talk) 22:28, 29 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
