- Keep: They have been around a fairly long time and are part of Rooster Teeth in a fairly big way, along with the spin off Game Attack. Zero Serenity (talk - contributions) 02:43, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
- Sysop: If delete is the choice, please dump the text into my sandbox if I can get it into a paragraph for Rooster Teeth. Zero Serenity (talk - contributions) 22:06, 18 September 2017 (UTC)

- Delete: the keep !vote above is based on the fact that ScrewAttack is part of something notable which doesn't confer notability because notability isn't inherited. A quick source search reveals nothing other than fancruft, self-published sources and affiliated media outlets. There are no independent, reliable reviews which give any indication of the article passing web notability standards. I am opposed to a merge because after looking at the article of the parent company, there is little sourced, encyclopedic content that can be merged. Perhaps a redirect may be the way to go but it's definitely not up to notability or verifiability standards. DrStrauss talk 13:50, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
- Redirect - To Rooster Teeth per the reasoning of nominator and DrStrauss. There is the potential issue of confusion with the term "screw attack", so an alternative would be to redirect to screw attack and make that a disambiguation page.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 13:18, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
- Redirect to Rooster Teeth without prejudice for/against a merge (though I'll note the same lack of reliable sourcing), per WP:GNG. --Izno (talk) 04:40, 18 September 2017 (UTC)
- Keep This isn't even debatable. ScrewAttack has 3.7 Million Youtube Subscribers with more than twenty videos that have more than 10 millions views. They are currently part of the Rooster Teeth family. Not even questionable that they fall within the definition of notability for Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bodychecker628 (talk • contribs)
- Bodychecker628, none of those things are in any of our policies. Go and find secondary sources. Drmies (talk) 21:29, 18 September 2017 (UTC)
- This is little more than promotion. Delete--or merge, but without those lists of things. Drmies (talk) 21:30, 18 September 2017 (UTC)
- Delete per DrStrauss, but a redirect would also work. ZettaComposer (talk) 00:19, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
