This page was proposed for deletion by SimonTrew (talk · contribs) on 21 April 2017 with the comment:
I believe this small company (and I wish them luck) is using English Wikipedia to promote themselves. It is not a notable company. It is getting towards WP:PROMO with the number of redirects we have to it (one of which, Ketchapp Games, is at RfD at the moment). If it can't make its mind up what it is called, then I don't think it is encyclopaeidic.

decline prod, claims of notability have been made and the sources are there. take to afd if you want it deleted

Stub[edit]

The article should be expanded somehow. Can we get this article to be less of a stub? Padsquad2010 (talk) 02:06, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It could use a history section. Compassionate727 (talk) 12:56, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Split List of games into new page[edit]

It looks bad at the moment as the article is so short. --☣Anar chyte☣ 07:55, 30 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It'll look even worse with no content. The only way around it is expansion. No real reason to split this out when the article is so short. – czar 00:03, 2 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed the COI thing[edit]

I am taking it down, as it is in justified error. I am just an app user who happens to really enjoy their apps. I am in no way connected with the company itself. I have attempted to make this article as accurate as possible from an encyclopedic point of view. If there is anything that would appear to be advertising and not just encyclopedic content, Please remove it. --Padsquad2010 (talk) 18:00, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Protected for 1 year[edit]

Have protected the page for a year due to ongoing sock issues. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 14:36, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification of Error on Reference[edit]

There is an error of attribution here: The article refers to source number 8 to state that Circle Pong is a Ketchapp Application, when you can see from the article itself, as well as from this link https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/circle-pong!/id905229109?mt=8 that Circle Pong is an App Cow app. The article should be corrected to reflect that although Ketchapp was accused of stealing Rotable, it turned out that Ketchapp did not own or create Circle Pong at all.

It should read as follows: "Mudloop later stated that they had learned that their submission of Zig Zag Boom to Ketchapp post-dated Ketchapp having a working version of ZigZag, and that Ketchapp was not the developer of Circle Pong, App Cow was.[8] The developer of App Cow's Circle Pong claimed to have built it as a clone of Pongo Pongo, a game which pre-dated Matt Akins' submission of Rotable to Ketchapp.[8]" Rwpowers (talk) 00:09, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
