next to no content... needs to either be drastically overhauled or deleted Alkivar 04:04, 17 Oct 2004 (UTC)

  • Keep - Limited content should not equate to delete. Articles have to start somewhere. See Adventure Vision for lots of information. It is listed as a stub. It seems like that is the appropriate action until more contributions can be made. Hobie 05:10, 2004 Oct 17 (UTC)
I understand the way you feel since you wrote it... but come on, its not notable enough to deserve a dedicated page. I think this would probably be better merged into the Video game console listing. Alkivar 01:59, 19 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Unresolved/lost VfD. Keep. Article will hopefully be improved. Cool Hand Luke 03:00, 30 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • weak Delete. 4 games released? Pretty obscure. --Improv 20:01, 30 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • The page has been sitting there since September 12, why do we think anything more will be done to improve it? Delete. RickK 00:40, Oct 31, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: no evidence of notability in sight. Wile E. Heresiarch 05:49, 31 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, seems like there is potential to become encyclopedic, wikipedia ain't paper. siroχo 08:49, Oct 31, 2004 (UTC)
    • How long do we keep nonsense on the pretext that in some future date it will become useable? RickK 20:16, Nov 1, 2004 (UTC)
As long as it takes for them to be full articles, but I think you knew that. Google has plenty of hits. The system has some unique and interesting features: for example it used one vertical strip of 40 red LEDs and a spinning mirror to produce a screen with a 150 X 40 resolution. So article is a baby (2 months) - meh. It will improve just like all the other articles, but there is no reason to toss it out so early. FYI ht1848 = Hobie Ht1848 05:21, 2004 Nov 2 (UTC)
  • Keep. I used to own one of these. Still do, I think. Fantastic little system, though "hand-held" is pushing it. Ate batteries like no tomorrow and sometimes caused them to leak, which is why I think it didn't last longer. Hm, maybe I should fix this. Inky 02:53, 3 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete - so little content it doesn't even contain a complete sentence. -- Cyrius| 05:06, 4 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • I've filled it out a little bit and revised some of the information for better clarity. Inky 22:17, 4 Nov 2004 (UTC)
    • Better. Mild keep, article now has some actual content. It also appears that the Adventure Vision is some sort of freakishly rare collector's item. -- Cyrius| 23:55, 4 Nov 2004 (UTC)
      • agreed definately better, however, i still dont feel its noteable enough for its own page considering it only had 4 games. for the same reason i feel the Nintendo Virtual Boy does not deserve its own article either, however these both appear notable for a unique feature (namely spinning mirrors using LED's to project the image), therefore should still be merged with Video game console per my post above.
