Verse Studios

Previously prodded, prod contested. It's an independent video game company that was founded last year, and it doesn't appear to satisfy notability guidelines, so I'm listing it here. Core desat 08:45, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:CORP. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 12:24, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, fails WP:CORP, WP:NN. Only 99 Google hits [1], and other than their own website and Wikipedia mirrors, the only hits are of a press release they put out announcing a $500K capital raising drive. So ... this is an outfit with no product, no money, and no notability. RGTraynor 16:40, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Their first product will be launched on April 1st, so the statement that they have "no product" is misleading. They are self funded, and looking for additional seed capital, so the statement that they have "no money" is also incorrect. Would you consider waiting until after April 1st to delete this?

- Probably not. In any case, your website doesn't say anything about a product launch in April. Indeed it states that the initial product "is currently in an early stage of production". Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 17:29, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No; presuming this company succeeds in getting a product out by April 1st or any other date, it still needs to pass WP:CORP, and that means getting significant, reliable third-party sources to talk about it. If that happens in the future, an article may readily be recreated, but Wikipedia's policy is to have articles about notable subjects, not about subjects that hope one day to become notable.

Delete-while they may well become notable eventually, it is clear that they are not yet notable. No reliable sources, no coverage—no article. Xtifr _tälk 23:11, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
