The result was delete. To answer User:Malincia's question, what we need are good sources (described at WP:NCORP talking about the company. How many games the put out is not a factor. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:38, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:NCORP, non-notable JMHamo (talk) 22:55, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Are localisation companies/publishers no longer notable? They've put out a similar amount of games to other companies like Sekai Project, MangaGamer and Nicalis and their releases of stuff like Muv-Luv and RPGMaker have garnered a fair amount of attention so I'm not sure where the issue lies. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Malincia (talk • contribs) 03:18, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:ORGCRIT - lacks the necessary coverage (unless someone who speaks Japanese can find something?). Jmertel23 (talk) 14:46, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The Japanese version of the article has 7 sources - 2 are sources within Japanese WP, 2 are to Degica's own site. Then there are cites to 4gamer and famitsu. The final cite is a note and not a reference. 4gamer and Famitsu seem like RS, but via google translate, neither appear to be actually ABOUT the company, and only mention it. Not that Japanese WP is the benchmark for whether a topic is notable, but it's worth noting for a Japanese topic. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ^ᐐT₳LKᐬ 17:05, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Just to agree with this assessment — the parent websites seem reputable enough (especially Famitsu), but as you note they're not particularly reasonable as sources since they're not really covering the company at all. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 11:08, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete on account of lack of adequate in quality and quantity sources verifying notability per WP:NCORP. Almost all sources cited are primary. Possibly a case of WP:TOOSOON. -The Gnome (talk) 09:52, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
