Small hobby group of ASCII "artists" - the article is unsourced, fan essay, and was not notable at the time of authorship. Flibbertigibbets (talk) 13:58, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

- Delete. Wikipedia is not for things that artists make up on their own unless there are others who think those things are important. Ghost of Kiev (talk) 17:05, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Fails WP:GNG. I was unable to find any reliable references. Fifthapril (talk) 15:47, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
- Comment (wishing keep) Sigh. wish I could just vote keep but probably merge/redirect to ACiD Productions is the best that's possible since other that archives of their work at like textfiles and other scene sites, I was able to just find a master's thesis: Like City Lights, Receding: ANSi Artwork and the Digital Underground, 1985-2000 which mentions the group:
ACiD spun off an ASCII art subdivision called Remorse in December of 1994.
andBy this time a substantial proportion of warez trading had shifted to the Internet, which preferred the platform-independence of ASCII art over Codepage 437. In this it is notable that ACiD's Remorse ASCII division appeared approximately at the beginning of this trend and continued through to the end of ACiD as a driving force in computer art.
- So... if this is deleted I'll try to add some more to the primary page. Skynxnex (talk) 17:16, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
