[edit] Scandal Sheet!

A webcomic hosted on keenspace, and can be found here. The Alexa report shows no mention of Scandal Sheet on its report for keenspace, and its forums is a ghosttown. A google search shows up nothing which would lift this website above all the other more popular websites out there. A webcomic is no more notable than any other website, and just because it has surpassed one hundred strips does not make it notable, no matter what WP:COMIC says. - Hahnchen 03:03, 29 September 2005 (UTC)

• The Scandal Sheet! forums are a ghost town because they moved to Livejournal. Keep - what do you think WP:COMIC is for, anyway? And they had a crossover with Something Positive, which helps too. DS 05:10, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
  • The main purpose of WP:COMIC seems to be to give non-notable web comics a reason to stay on Wikipedia when they would have been deleted if they were a non-notable anything else. Delete on general principles. - Andre Engels 11:48, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete -- the primary question here is of notability/vanity -- this webcomic appears to fall short of sufficient notability to merit an article in the encyclopedia. --Mysidia (talk) 03:47, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per above. WP:COMIC is just plain silly and I do not plan to use those criteria in my decisions. I see no reason not to judge any website by the same standards, regardless of whether they contain comics or not. Friday (talk) 15:11, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. I am in agreement with the above. Dottore So 15:55, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Likewise... perhaps there need to be some skeptics participating in WP:COMIC. -- SCZenz 22:38, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
• Transwiki to the Comixpedia Webcomic Wiki and delete. --Carnildo 23:10, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
