The notability of this company is questionable. No primary sources given. Eeekster (talk) 21:04, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Note: Most of the page text taken directly from http://www.trinegames.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=46&Itemid=64. Regardless of its notability, the page cannot continue to exist in the state. Reach Out to the Truth 21:15, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Especially given the first version of the article is a copy-paste from said source. Nifboy (talk) 01:09, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment: There is this interview with a Trine Games CEO. I doubt it's enough to satisfy WP:N though. Heavyweight Gamer (talk) 06:05, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 13:54, 23 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete Neutral. I searched a few Game News websites for news items about "Trine Games". I found lots of items about Trine (video game), but nothing useful for writing an acceptable article: GamesRadar: no hits; Gamespot: 0; Gamespy: 1 very short company profile; GameZone: no hits; IGN: 1 very short company profile. Maybe Trine Games will be notable one day — I'd like to see that — but they're not WikiNotable yet. CWC 17:38, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Changed from "Delete" to "Neutral" after seeing SharkD's comment below. I'm not convinced yet about Trine Games, but it seems to me we should have an article about Trine Entertainment, the parent company. CWC 05:25, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep There are additional hits when searching for "Trine Entertainment" and "Trine Animation": GameGuru.in, GameGuru.in, PC Games (DE), Hindustan Times, The Hindu Business Line, Think Digit, Animation Xpress, Animation Xpress, Animation Xpress. Lots of trivial mentions, including: The Telegraph, The Telegraph, Gaming Heaven, PC Games (DE), PC Games (DE). SharkD   Talk  03:45, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete and recreate as a section of the notable Trine Entertainment.--M4gnum0n (talk) 20:53, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per M4gnum0n as I don't think this is notable enough yet for its own article. ArcAngel (talk) 07:30, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Keep (perhaps as Trine Entertainment, including information about Trine Animation, too). Coverage linked to by SharkD is enough to build up a good article. Marasmusine (talk) 20:26, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - I didn't find much on the individual website sources given to see if they would even be reliable sources. I don't see it being particularly notable. --Teancum (talk) 13:15, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
