Weird Science (game development studio)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Not enougn coverage in reliable sources to verify or sustian article. Fails WP:GNG and WP:CORP. Coverage seems to focus on the app, which has an article, rather than the company. Notability is not inherited. Jbh ^Talk 14:16, 12 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. App doesn't have an article—the link's about its namesake. The game dev, as a subject, lacks significant coverage from reliable, independent sources. (?) It had no meaningful hits in a video game reliable sources custom Google search. There are no worthwhile redirect targets. Please ping me you find more (non-English and offline) sources. – czar 20:48, 13 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Question: does the app really have its own article? Because the wikilink in article-space goes to an article with the same name on an unrelated topic. CorporateM (Talk) 00:05, 15 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@CorporateM: no the app does not have an article. The sources being used as refs in the article talk about the app rather than the makers though. I suppose an article on the app could be written assuming the notability standards for video games are low enough. Jbh ^Talk 00:35, 15 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete the current article; no objection to someone creating an article on the app. CorporateM (Talk) 00:38, 15 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete not notable. Perhaps written for promotion as it's the only edit of its author. sami ^talk 12:56, 15 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
