[edit] Bench 37

This is a contested prod. It's a webcomic that doesn't appear to meet WP:WEB. It looks like one of the creators wrote the article, so WP:VANITY also an issue. Note: I have already made a copy on Comixpedia here. –Abe Dashiell ^(t/c) 10:41, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

• This has been listed on Wikipedia:WikiProject Webcomics/Deletion. –Abe Dashiell ^(t/c) 10:41, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
• Weak delete Doesn't really seem notable enough for WP; I would suggest Comixpedia is the best place for it. Seb Patrick 12:12, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
• (This is a copy of the argument I posed to Mr. Dashiell) I can understand your claims that it is nothing but a vanity article, but would like to dispute that. I simply like to keep a running summary of the comics history in an easily readable, editable, and accessable format. Wikipedia is all that and more. Yes, I am the comic's author, but I have tried my hardest (and imho, succeeded) to write from a neutral point of view. As for the notability issue, there are plenty of webcomics listed that may or may not be less "notable" than Bench 37.Dustin Sanders 1:26 p.m., May 26 (UTC)
• Delete - Not notable. Try a Google for "Bench 37" and almost every link is irrelevent. There probably are webcomics on Wikipedia that are less notable than Bench 37, but they should be deleted too. - Hahnchen 00:46, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, nothing in this article suggests this topic is any way notable. It doesn't meet WP:WEB and is clear WP:VANITY per Abe Dashiell. To the author of the webcomic and the article, if you'd like to "keep a running summary of the comics history," please do it elsewhere, as WP:NOT your blog. And if you have found any webcomics articles that are less notable than Bench 37, then please help Wikipedia by proposing them for deletion via WP:PROD. -- Dragonfiend 19:29, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
• ah, whatever. Go ahead and delete it. I tried doing it myself but the article was reverted by an anti-vandalism bot.Dustin Sanders 11:14 p.m., May 27 (UTC)
• Delete for reasons already given. DVD+ R/W 04:17, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
