Weak keep.These refs come from vetted games sources:

- Not an abundant offering, and not much coverage after 2012, but enough significant coverage for a small article based on reliable reporting. There are also more duplicate refs available, but I felt that this covered it. – czar 04:28, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
- Merge to parent org Symbid#Ownership_interests works for me (even though they apparently only own 12%, it's enough for a few sentences on what the org does). Nice find, @Nowa. FYI, @SwisterTwister. – czar 17:23, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
- Maybe draft/userfy instead as I considered the sources found and the ones I found including here and here but, as it seems there hasn't been much recent activity, I'm not sure what the future plans are. SwisterTwister talk 05:24, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
- Merge to Symbid. Notable at it's launch, but now Gambitious is a subsidiary of Symbid and not all that notable by itself.--Nowa (talk) 13:44, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect to Symbid. Nothing really to be merged in. Page should be deleted and redirected. The content about Gambitious on the Symbid is already just as substantial and written in a much more encyclopedic tone. Sulfurboy (talk) 16:39, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
