Non notable corporation. It was being reviewed at Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Carpe Fulgur where it failed, patently. One day it may be notable, just not yet. Fiddle Faddle 21:40, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

  • Note that this copy and paste creation breaks the entire chain of attribution of authorship and edits. If the outcome of this discussion is to keep the article then a history merge will be required with the AfC version. Fiddle Faddle 21:47, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

  • Keep - I've a number of sources that discuss them in detail, listed below. (And there's countless other "passing mention" sources out there that could help flesh out the article with little details, like [http://www.joystiq.com/2013/09/06/trails-in-the-sky-coming-to-steam-carpe-fulgur-translating-sequ/ this].) All sources below have consensus through WP:VG at WP:VG/S to be usable sources. (Siliconera has consensus to be used for article's dealing with Japanese games, which is entirely what Carpe Fulgur deals with.)

  • Keep (and histmerge) - Per the plethora of significant coverage found by Sergecross above. ☺ · Salvidrim! ·  14:32, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Keep. Plentiful sources in a WP:VG/RS search, and that's atop Serge's list above. I'll grant that the current version is a disaster, but the topic's still notable. Nom, based on the direction of this discussion, you may want to consider withdrawing your nomination. czar  05:35, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Weak keep This scenario plays out too often, a disaster of an article is kept at AfD and then never improved. I encourage all interested editors here to make some needed improvements to the article ASAP, before it's forgotten. Disclosure: I saw this mentioned on the AfC reviewer help page.
