History of video game companies

Article is not a "history of video game companies". It is a list of six video game publishers, along with some developers they have worked with and/or acquired. It is not, and cannot be, comprehensive. There are already other Wikipedia lists of video game publishers and companies. This is not a history article, and it cannot ever be a "history of video game companies" - what companies would it be? All of them? Tempshill (talk) 21:03, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as redundant, esp. given History of video games. Drmies (talk) 21:10, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Redundant to List of video game companies and History of video games, and largely unsourced too. Haipa Doragon (talk • contributions) 01:25, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. This is not a history article, it's a half-fast spinout of the list articles as mentioned above. History articles need stuff like prose and summary style; this page has neither. MuZemike 19:57, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Not even on the history of video game companies and, as said before, redundant. --YOWUZA Talk 2 me! 11:44, 2 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There is no history there and you would have to make a list of every video game company there ever was to make such a history and would be far to big for an "Encyclopedia" or it would be an encyclopedia in its own right --Rageypeep (talk) 17:58, 3 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
