Vaporware that actually do get released should still keep this tag to signify their past as not all unreleased games are vaporware.
Rumors with sufficient evidence, if they keep popping up for say 3-5 years would qualify in some cases (if limited to preproduction planning, renders, and concept art then maybe not, actual in-game content however would). Official announcement and then no release for 1-3 years would also qualify.
