• Weak delete. Long standing and they did publish their artwork, but no assertion of notability and no secondary sources. The Null Device 10:54, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

• Keep. Creators of Intense Art was always one of the top three contenders during the heyday of ANSI art, and has been featured in works such as BBS Documentary, the Dark Domain collection (ISBN 0-9746537-0-5), and the recently published Freax book (ISBN 978-3981049411), to name a few. The organizer of the group, Andrew Bell, now of Creatures in my Head fame, is even cited as a source for the ANSI art section of the book Cyberpl@y by Brenda Danet, pages 236-240. If these aren't "reliable sources" on the subject, I don't know what is. --Sodium N4 09:31, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

• Keep per above. // Gargaj 02:15, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
• Keep per the points raised Sodium N4. It can be argued that these computer art organizations were rendered extinct as a result of the uprise of the modern internet, and I believe that groups such as these are worthy of encyclopedic note; this one especially, given its near decade-long existence.
