The result was keep - there doesn't seem much doubt that this is a notable comic and a valid subject, and the nominator has been working on this and other articles to correct his concerns by editing. --Sam Blanning(talk) 23:51, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] All Winners Comics
Timely Comics Index - All Winners, since moved to All Winners Comics, is primarily an illustrated checklist of stories in a comic-book series, is done with HTML markup rather than wiki coding, and is contrary to policy Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. (Additionally, page-creator Neufen01, who has been blocked for 48 hours for vandalism, has resisted editors' efforts encouraging him to learn the basics of Wikipedia, and has simply added cursory textual information while retaining the checklist-bulk of the page.) Please note there is a seperate, longstanding All-Winners Squad article with which this should not be confused.-- Tenebrae 16:12, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
- Weak keep but remove gallery and condense. The use of first person and other information suggests much of this is an NOR violation, however All Winners Comics was a legitimate publication and therefore is eligible for its own article. I'm sure there's enough info here to generate a good stub at least, with one cover image. 23skidoo 16:45, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Although the article is atrociously written, that's not why we put things up for AfD. I would say it's a given that any Marvel/Timely comic qualifies for its own article. This one just needs to be overhauled. wikipediatrix 23:32, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
