Non-notable video game company. The article was recently deprodded by Manwoody. Also, AdrianGamer removed a notability tag in Special:Diff/660734098, which I have restored. GeoffreyT2000 (talk, contribs) 15:31, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Is the poor article the problem, or whether it should have one in the first place? What are your criteria here?
  Here is one in-depth article about the company:
  http://www.mediennetzwerk-bayern.de/8536/realmforge-mit-bayerischer-games-passion/
  Company exists since 2007, all (?) of their games have articles, some of them were nominated at the two national awards (Deutscher Computerspielpreis and Deutscher Entwicklerpreis).

There are numerous problems with the article. There is no indication of notability and nothing in the article suggests any reasons why the topic should have an article in the first place. In order to establish notability, the article must provide verification of the presented facts by also including references to independent third party sources to back up what the article says. The link you provided above is a pretty good link and can be used to provide verification for some of the historical facts (should anyone insert any into the article). If you can dig up any more articles that would be great. Any also insert reasons for notability - were any awards won by the company, etc. At this point in time, I'm leaning towards Delete as my searches haven't turned up enough references that establish notability. -- HighKing⁺⁺ 11:57, 27 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
