Blindlight

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

No significant coverage of this company. It is mentioned in only a couple of the references provided, and then only in passing. A thorough news search will find only coverage of this nature&mdash;the company is usually only mentioned after a quote from Chapelsky, describing who he is (note that in the coverage I have reviewed outside of the references provided, Chapelsky&mdash;while quoted&mdash;is not covered in any detail whatsoever).

 * Keep I've been looking at game articles up for deletion and this one intrigued me. It didn't take me long to compile 20+ articles on this company, even if some of them just have quotes from their general manager on the particular article topic.  Although they aren't a traditional game company, the services they provide to game developers is interesting and from their IMDB page and articles, seems like they've contributed alot to the game industry in the last 10 or so years.  With that, I feel the article should not be deleted but corrected. Commidus23 (talk) 03:35, 28 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep While it is cause for concern that the creator is affiliated with the company and could show bias in the article, as long as additional editors remove that bias this article is a valid addition. This company is obviously seen as a valid source by the mainstream press (e.g. USA Today, Reuters, Variety, etc) as it has been quoted in numerous articles in the past seven years.  In addition,  two articles (only one of which is a reference in the wiki entry) by major videogame news outlets, Game Daily and Edge Magazine are entirely about the company and its founders.  I see no reason for this entry to be deleted.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.153.118.70 (talk) 04:32, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep: I agree with the above as it has been quoted in numerous articles in the past seven years. - Ret.Prof (talk) 23:37, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
