Importance

This Article should be Highly Important, because Revolution Software made one of the most successful Adventure Classics of All Time! Plus - it was found by a Legendof the Gaming Industry: Charles Cecil! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 7arazred (talk • contribs) 12:42, 17 September 2011

Per the Importance scale for WikiProject Video games, companies are ranked Top-importance (article forms the basis of all information) if they are highly influential companies, particularly the major Japanese, American, and European companies involved in video game production, e.g. Blizzard Entertainment, Capcom, Nintendo; they are ranked High-importance (article covers a general area of knowledge) if they are top developers and publishers, e.g. Epic Games, Neversoft; they are ranked Mid-importance (article fills in general knowledge of specialized topics) if they are most other well-known companies in the industry, e.g. IGN, Gamestop, Naughty Dog; and Low-importance otherwise. Personally I'm reluctant to go even as high as Mid-importance, because no evidence has been provided of this company being well-known, so I think that Low-importance is justified. --Redrose64 (talk) 14:00, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

I have added many References, because there weren't enough of them. :D --7arazred (talk) 17:11, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

    Pass/Fail:
    Shoddily put together, please read the good article criteria and make sure that this article meetrs them before renominating. Jezhotwells (talk) 22:06, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

This artcile has not been reviewed. 7arazred simply copied and pasted Talk:Revolution Software/GA1 altering the failure points to passes. Jezhotwells (talk) 14:24, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

Seconding the above just for the record. Apparently nominated by Bsbass, though I cannot see how this is any short of socking given 7arazred created this page 10 min later. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 14:30, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
