[edit] Revision3 Studios

Tagged for a speedy as recreation of previously VFDed content. However the content of the original article was

Revision3 Studios is the company behind the videozines Systm (http://www.systm.org) and thebroken (http://www.thebroken.org). Kevin Rose, a former personality of TechTV (now G4 (television)) is one of the members of this company. Jay Adelson, former Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Equinix, Inc. (http://www.equinix.com), was recently named chairman and CEO of Revision3 Studios.

(with some links which I have not added here) This article is much larger. However, I don't really think the company is notable, so I will say delete. The original VFD discussion is here. Sjakkalle (Check!) 07:07, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Whereas Google previously had a somewhat embarrassing total of zero hits, it now has 149. Ah, but it shows just six hits as representative of the whole lot, and these are blog entries, publicity announcements/puffs, etc. I'm underwhelmed. Delete. -- Hoary 07:48, 2005 Jun 20 (UTC)
• Delete advertising. JamesBurns 07:51, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete once again... how many companies are registered across the globe? Come and get yourself immortalized on the web for free. Wikipedia: The Free Encyclopedia--0001 14:01, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. I created this article to merge information from Systm and thebroken. Formerly, the article for Systm was VfD'd, and called a "merge and redirect". It was redirected to Kevin Rose at the time, but that makes no sense, because he is only one-fifth of the team behind the series. Even if you don't think the company itself is notable, this article should exist for its information on Systm and thebroken, which are notable. --taestell 18:00, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. An article should exist with information about Systm, either here or the recently deleted Systm article. --Knio 22:50, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Merge with Kevin Rose. --Mrmiscellanious 23:31, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. An important company that produces many popular videozines with a very large audience. --Salvag 17:13, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. I'm tempted to say that media companies presently producing content are definitionally worth an article if someone writes one. It can be very difficult to find NPOV information about media companies. --TreyHarris 17:46, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep as per Salvag. —Markaci 2005-06-22 T 17:47 Z
• Keep. This article has info that does not belong in the Kevin Rose article. Personally I would say split into Systm but that page was already VFD'd and lost. Possibly merge The Broken into it, but definitely keep. --TexasDex 18:11, Jun 22, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per Hoary. AиDя01DTALKEMAIL 22:14, Jun 22, 2005 (UTC)
• Weak Keep. Taking into consideration Hoary's view, I'm also considering the fact that this is needed in lieu with other articles. Hence, I'll sit on the fence, and maybe a bit to the side, with a weak keep. -- Natalinasmpf 22:17, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. This article has different information and refers to both Systm and thebroken which Kevin Rose is only a part of. --AyrtonSenna
• Keep per taestell. --Randy 23:59, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, company has created Systm and thebroken, both of which seem to have a large number of viewers.--Matteh (talk) 03:16, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Systm and The Broken are notable and have a large viewing audience. I see no reason for deletion. It is not advertising. — Peter McGinley 07:53, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• The article was initally referred to the Kevin Rose article. Since Rose is not a whole or even a majority of the crew behind the studio, merging the two would be an inaccuracy. I see no reason to delete the article. Keep - Razer64 06:47, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• This VfD has been up for eight days now... two-thirds (12 out of 18) of the votes are "keep"... --65.185.15.125 28 June 2005 21:49 (UTC)
• Keep Systm got deleted and merge with Kevin Rose, however, this is a better place for it. I would further suggest that The Broken gets merged with this. Falcorian June 29, 2005 02:03 (UTC)
• Keep. With the high numbers of reported systm downloads, this company has a decent impression. --Sepht 4:45, 29 Jun 2005 (UTC) ...added at 03:47, June 29, 2005 by 68.121.166.105
  • Sepht, under whose name this vote was made (strangely, at the top, right in the middle of the preface by Sjakkalle), has a single contribution so far. -- Hoary June 29, 2005 04:21 (UTC)
• Keep This is quite a popular company. In fact I logged on to Wikipedia today just to look up Revision3 MrHate June 30, 2005 08:02 (UTC)
• Okay... This VfD is 10 days old now, and 70% (14 of 20) of the votes are "keep"... --taestell June 30, 2005 19:54 (UTC)
• Keep I've checked out the videos from systm and would rate them as well produced and equivalent to standard television. I am also familiar with 2 of the guys from TV shows they have been a part of in the past. I vote for keeping the site. June 30, 2005 ........... comment added at 00:34, 1 July 2005 by 65.35.88.234
