Delete - This international company has actually received quite a bit of English coverage including this, Google News search (seven articles including one in Chinese) and from MTV and Variety. Unfortunately, the MTV and Variety coverage was the plans for a major movie which I'm assuming did not go as planned because it didn't seem there was any more news about it or Fluid Friction themselves. The company is international by having connections in the UK and China and apparently introduced in India as well which explains the amount of coverage. For the film adaption, I found additional news articles here (South China Morning Post), here (Coventry Telegraph), forbidden examiner.com link, here (Digital Spy UK) and here (Time Out Hong Kong). So, they got alot of coverage in the beginning for introducing DevaShard and even more for the major film adaption...and that's it. Another shot of notability was having British comic artist Simon Bisley on their team but that's pretty much it for that too. In addition, it seems DevaShard was their only and best known character. Not much for an article past all this. It seems the DevaShard website works but not the Fluid Friction website so Fluid Friction may have vanished hence the presumably cancelled movie and further production. I'm also not finding much for the "began operations in October 2006". No prejudice towards userfying or a future article should they return. SwisterTwister talk 22:07, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

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